Web3 Resource Guide: News, Data, Wallets, Jobs and Dev Docs in One Place

One of the most frustrating things about getting into Web3 is that everything is scattered.

You need one site for market data, another for news, a different one for on-chain analytics — and your bookmarks become a mess. When you actually need something, you can't find it.

This post is a straightforward, organized collection of the tools I use regularly, grouped by category. No filler, no affiliate links — just the resources worth bookmarking.

All of them are also available on the Resources page on this site.

📰 News & Info

Staying informed doesn't mean reading everything. Pick one or two sources and stick to them.

• PANews — One of the most comprehensive Chinese-language Web3 news outlets. Good mix of breaking news and in-depth coverage.
• Odaily — Chinese crypto and Web3 media with fast, reliable reporting.
• BlockBeats — Strong on research and market narratives, not just price news.
• Cointelegraph — The mainstream English-language benchmark for global crypto news.
• The Block — Data-driven reporting with a focus on institutional and macro trends.
• Decrypt — More culture and product-focused — good for understanding where Web3 is headed socially.

📊 Data & Analytics

Price is the least interesting on-chain data point. These tools show you what's actually happening.

• RootData — Project research, funding rounds, token unlock schedules, and investor data. Essential for due diligence.
• DeBank — Portfolio tracker for Ethereum and EVM-compatible chains. Shows your full on-chain position across protocols.
• GMGN — On-chain data focused on meme tokens and short-term trading signals. Widely used for tracking smart money.
• CoinMarketCap — The standard reference for prices, market caps, and trading volumes.
• DeFiLlama — Total value locked across DeFi protocols. Good for understanding which chains and projects are actually being used.
• Dune Analytics — Custom on-chain dashboards built by the community. Incredibly powerful if you know what you're looking for.

🏦 Exchanges

The major centralized exchanges — Binance, OKX, Coinbase, Kraken, Bybit, Gate.io — are all listed on the resources page. Each has its own strengths depending on your region, preferred assets, and trading style. No single recommendation here; pick what fits your situation.

👛 Wallets

• MetaMask — Still the default for EVM chains. Not the most elegant, but has the broadest compatibility.
• Phantom — Originally built for Solana, now supports multiple chains. Clean interface, widely recommended.
• Binance Web3 Wallet / OKX Wallet — Good entry points if you're already using those exchanges and want to dip into on-chain activity.

💼 Jobs & Careers

A bear market is actually a good time to look for a Web3 job — there's less noise, and companies hiring now are typically building for the long term.

• web3.career — 70,000+ listings covering blockchain, smart contracts, and crypto — both technical and non-technical roles.
• Remote3 — Focused on remote Web3 work. Updated in real time with a Telegram job alert channel.
• CryptoJobsList — Clean and straightforward. Good for a quick browse without too much noise.
• DeJob — Web3 and remote jobs with a focus on the Asian market.
• A Better Web3 — A curated collection of Web3 career resources and opportunities, built by the community.

🛠️ Development & Docs

If you want to go beyond using Web3 and start building it, these are the starting points:

• Ethereum.org — The official Ethereum documentation. Covers concepts, development guides, and ecosystem resources.
• Solidity Docs — The official language reference for writing smart contracts.
• OpenZeppelin — Audited smart contract libraries. If you're writing contracts, you should be using these.
• Hardhat — The standard local development environment for Ethereum smart contracts.
