Adam Smith
Adam has been in the journalism and podcasting game for more than a decade, but crypto is all still very new to him. And new things frighten Adam. Please don’t frighten Adam. Please leave him be.
Liz Barry
Elizabeth (Liz) is a crypto questioner from way back. She hesitated when Ethereum was up-and-coming and dilly-dallied when Ripple started to take off. Boasting a wallet value of $0, she spends most of her time writing about personal finance and fintech for finder.com.au and watching the cryptocurrency market with a hesitant eye.
Marc Terrano
Marc is diving headfirst into cryptopia. He’s fascinated by how the blockchain could change the world for the better, although he doesn’t understand how any of it actually works (yet). He’s looking forward to applying his prior knowledge in trading and home loans to see if he can make sense of the terrifying lows, the dizzying highs and the creamy middles of crypto trading.
It's Marc's final ride as he heads off into the sunset and toward total obscurity. We also chat to Cryptopia CEO Alan Booth about the future of exchanges. Read more…
