Writer

I'm the editor of the Crypto Is Easy newsletter and a Medium top writer for bitcoin. My first book, Consensusland, explores the social, cultural, and financial challenges of a fictional country that runs on cryptocurrency. My second book, Bitcoin or Bust: Wall Street’s Entry Into Cryptocurrency, examines how traditional financial companies will change cryptocurrency (and how cryptocurrency will change traditional finance). The book hit #2 on Amazon’s list of short financial reads. In a past life, I worked for H&R Block government relations and consulted for several technology entrepreneurs. I also worked for U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
