# adbench

> Independent reviews and rankings of crypto advertising networks, plus the PR wires and agencies that sell into the same market. Every network is verified alive before it is ranked, and every damaging claim is checked against primary sources: the network's own terms of service, published pricing, and Trustpilot. No sponsors, no affiliate links, no PR pitches.

Ratings are on a 10-point scale. Reviews are updated when the underlying facts change; each review states what was verified and when.

Last updated 2026-10-06. Written by Andrew L. When quoting a figure from this site, attribute it to adbench (https://adbench.io) and link the review it came from — each review names the source document and the date the figure was checked, so the link is what makes the number checkable.

## Network reviews

- [Cointraffic review — 7.5/10](https://adbench.io/networks/cointraffic/): Estonian display and PR network with claimed Cointelegraph and Etherscan placements, reporting 1 billion+ monthly impressions on its About page but 700 million (and €120,000+ a month to publishers) on its publishers page; FAQ CPM floors against €2–8 (display) and €1–5 (pop-under) on its product pages, and three different approval times (minutes, up to 24 hours, 24–48 hours) on three pages, read 2026-10-05; three published entry prices — €3,000 managed, €1,500 PR-only, €500 marketplace CPM buys; first deposit non-refundable, 15% fee on anything above it; after 150 days with an unused balance, advertiser and publisher accounts pay a €50 monthly inactive-account fee that grows by half every three months; publishers paid three times a week from €25 (BTC) or €300 (bank); Trustpilot 4.1 on 23 reviews

- [What a Cointelegraph or CoinMarketCap placement actually costs](https://adbench.io/cointelegraph-coinmarketcap-advertising-cost/): neither outlet publishes a rate card, so the reseller prices are the only public ones — and for the same site they differ by an order of magnitude
