Our Mission
Zug Blockchain is an independent editorial intelligence platform delivering rigorous analysis of the blockchain ecosystem centered in Zug, Switzerland — the jurisdiction known globally as Crypto Valley. We provide institutional-grade research, regulatory analysis, and ecosystem intelligence to investors, policymakers, entrepreneurs, and professionals operating at the intersection of blockchain technology and traditional finance.
Our mission is to be the definitive source of strategic intelligence on Crypto Valley: its companies, its regulatory architecture, its institutional infrastructure, and its competitive position within the global blockchain landscape. We believe that clear, accurate, and analytically rigorous information is essential for sound decision-making in a fast-moving industry where hype frequently outpaces substance.
Editorial Standards
Every piece of content published on Zug Blockchain is held to the same analytical standard expected of leading institutional research firms. Our editorial process draws on primary sources including Swiss government publications, FINMA regulatory guidance, filings with the Swiss Commercial Registry, and direct engagement with ecosystem participants. We do not publish speculation, rumors, or price predictions. Our focus is structural analysis — the regulatory frameworks, institutional developments, and strategic dynamics that shape the blockchain economy over quarters and years, not hours and days.
Founding Team
Zug Blockchain was founded by Donovan Vanderbilt, a global executive and strategic advisor based in Switzerland. Donovan holds an MBA from Imperial College London and brings extensive experience in government advisory, institutional banking, and fintech entrepreneurship across European, Gulf, and African markets. His career spans strategic consulting for sovereign wealth funds, digital transformation advisory for national governments, and entrepreneurial ventures in tokenization and decentralized finance.
The editorial team combines expertise in Swiss financial regulation, blockchain technology, institutional investment, and economic policy analysis. Contributors include former financial regulators, blockchain protocol researchers, and investment professionals with deep experience in the Swiss and European digital asset landscape.
Independence & Integrity
Zug Blockchain maintains complete editorial independence. Our content is never influenced by advertisers, sponsors, or commercial partners. We do not accept payment for coverage, and we disclose all material relationships in accordance with our Editorial Policy. Our revenue is generated through advertising, newsletter subscriptions, and intelligence products — never through editorial compromise.
Design & Technology
The Zug Blockchain platform was designed and built by Bureau Helix, Zug — a digital architecture practice specializing in institutional intelligence platforms. The design system draws on Swiss typographic traditions and editorial design principles to create a reading experience that reflects the rigor and clarity of the content it presents.
