Google, Meta and X limit crypto ads, so many crypto projects buy ads on crypto sites instead. Our guide on advertising crypto on Google and Meta explains those limits.
Three kinds of crypto ad platform
Single sites
You buy a spot on one website. You know exactly where your ad appears. The audience is usually very focused.
Crypto ad networks
You buy views across hundreds of publisher sites and apps. You get more reach, but less control over where your ad shows up.
Browsers and trading tools
Some tools crypto users open every day also sell ads. Brave Ads runs inside the Brave browser. DexScreener sells spots on its DEX charts.

How to choose
Start with your goal
- Reach: banners on a large site, or a network
- Clicks: native spots and buttons that sit where people already look
- Installs or sign-ups: a button that sends people straight to your app
Our guide to banners, native spots and custom buttons explains each format.
Check where your ad will appear
On a single site, you see the page before you pay. On a network, ask for a list of sites.
Compare the cost per click, not the cost per view
A cheap view is worthless if nobody clicks. Work out the cost per click, then the cost per sign-up. Our guide on how to measure a crypto ad campaign shows the math.
Check what the platform accepts
Each platform has its own rules. Some ask for KYC. Some, like Brave, reject presales. Your ads must also follow the law where you target. See crypto ad rules for the US, UK and EU.
Decide who runs the campaign
Self-serve platforms let you start fast. If you want someone to plan and run it, see our list of the best crypto marketing agencies.

FAQ
What is the best crypto ad network?
It depends on your budget. AADS, Coinzilla and HypeLab start from about $100, and Bitmedia from a $300 deposit. Blockchain-Ads and Cointraffic suit larger budgets. If you want a fixed spot on one busy crypto site instead, compare single sites like Coinranking.
Which crypto ad platforms publish their prices?
Coinranking lists all of its prices on its website. Several networks publish minimum deposits or bids, but not full rate cards.
Is an ad network better than a single site?
Not always. A network gives reach. A single site gives control and a more focused audience. Many projects use both.
What is the smallest budget I can start with?
Some platforms, such as AADS, CoinGecko and HypeLab, start around $100. On Coinranking, the smallest campaign costs $1,350.
Which platforms accept token presales?
Rules differ. Brave Ads does not accept presales. DexScreener offers direct deals for presales. Always read each platform’s policy before you book.
