Cointime Official

Bitwave, the leading enterprise digital asset accounting platform, announced today its acquisition of Multisig Media, the crypto accounting and finance industry's premier provider of continuing professional education (CPE) and news. The acquisition was announced on-stage at the 2nd annual Enterprise Digital Asset Summit (EDAS) in Austin, TX.

With this acquisition, Bitwave expands its educational offerings in the digital asset space and solidifies its commitment to bridging the gap between the traditional and decentralized financial systems.

In just a year and a half, Multisig Media has established itself as a trusted source of news and analysis for accounting and finance professionals exploring tokens, NFTs and other digital assets in business. Multisig Media publishes CPE-accredited courses in crypto accounting and finance; and their flagship newsletter Triple Entry is read by more than 3,000 professionals in Web3, DeFi, accounting, finance, and more.

Both companies share a common vision to empower, inform, and educate finance professionals with the most up-to-date guidance for digital asset accounting. This acquisition will accelerate and expand Bitwave’s ability to meet the educational needs of businesses, further cementing it as the go-to leader for Web3 finance and accounting professionals.

“Bitwave was created with the core purpose of mitigating the complexity of digital asset accounting. This includes dedicated educational support for all accounting teams – no matter where they are in their Web3 journey,” said Bitwave COO and Co-Founder Amy Kalnoki.

“This acquisition of Multisig Media will expand Bitwave’s ability to educate all finance professionals with the most innovative and compelling content available today,” said Kalnoki.

With the acquisition, the Triple Entry newsletter will continue its coverage of the Web3 accounting and finance space with content designed to close the knowledge gap for crypto accountants. More opportunities for accountants to earn CPE credits are coming soon.

From the get-go, we’ve been focused on educating accounting and finance professionals on all things digital assets,” said Multisig Media CEO Trevor Ward.

“We want accountants passionate about the future of this industry to have the tools they need to meet the challenges of crypto accounting head-on. Solving this problem - or as we like to call it, Operation 'Build-a-Better-Back-Office' - has always been our mission, because we believe this is one of the key components of accelerating the mass adoption of digital assets,” said Ward.

  • U.S. Congressman Mike Flood: Looking forward to working with the next SEC Chairman to revoke the anti-crypto banking policy SAB 121

     US House of Representatives will investigate Representative Mike Flood's recent statement: "Despite widespread opposition, SAB 121 is still operating as a regulation, even though it has never gone through the normal Administrative Procedure Act process." Flood said, "I look forward to working with the next SEC chairman to revoke SAB 121. Whether Chairman Gary Gensler resigns on his own or President Trump fulfills his promise to dismiss Gensler, the new government has an excellent opportunity to usher in a new era after Gensler's departure." He added, "It's not surprising that Gensler opposed the digital asset regulatory framework passed by the House on a bipartisan basis earlier this year. 71 Democrats and House Republicans passed this common-sense framework together. Although the Democratic-led Senate rejected it, it represented a breakthrough moment for cryptocurrency and may provide information for the work of the unified Republican government when the next Congress begins in January next year."
