Google's July algorithm refresh and AI Overviews rollout have reshaped the search landscape—and crypto publications felt the hit hard. Many digital assets and blockchain coverage sites watched their search visibility drop noticeably. It's a wake-up call for the industry: as AI-powered summaries dominate search results, traditional crypto media outlets are scrambling to adjust their SEO strategies and content distribution approaches to stay visible in an increasingly algorithm-driven environment.

AI summaries have directly blocked us all now, and search traffic has plummeted. I really don't know how to survive.

Google's latest update directly trampled on crypto media, it's really ruthless. Once AI summaries appear, traditional content has to step aside; the game rules are changing too quickly. Search engines have become the stage for AI, how can we small media outlets survive... We have to relearn SEO again, it's really exhausting. Algorithms are like the house, and we are always the ones being harvested.

Honestly, this is a dead cycle... Google develops AI summaries, small media outlets are squeezed out, then big influencers become more popular, and retail investors find it increasingly difficult to access information. It feels like the crypto media should wake up.

Google's recent update is really aggressive. Crypto media outlets are collectively lying flat, and search traffic has been cut in half... As soon as AI summaries appeared, traditional media had to change their tactics and start rethinking SEO.

Once AI summaries came out, our small media outlets were directly buried, and search traffic was lamentable... Watching the algorithm devour us.

Wow, Google really threw the crypto media into disarray this time, cutting their traffic in half. AI summaries, to put it simply, are stealing content creators' livelihoods, forcing everyone to rethink their strategies...

Ha, it's Google messing around again... This time, it's crypto traffic being taken down by AI Overviews. Basically, traditional media have no future left.
