The website rebranded as a casino expert advice "blog." in 2017 before Brad Anderson, the current editor-in-chief, changed the site into a cryptocurrency, artificial intelligence, and technology based website.
RW was acquired by SAY Media in 2011.[3] On October 22, 2012, RWW redesigned its website, rebranded as ReadWrite and hired Daniel Lyons as the new editor-in-chief.[4] Dan Lyons left ReadWrite on March 20, 2013,[5] replaced by Owen Thomas.[6]
SAY Media sold ReadWrite to Wearable World in February 2015.[7] In June 2015, the company announced a crowd funding campaign.[8]
