About Rick Webber

I'm a cryptocurrency writer documenting what might be the most significant financial and technological revolution of our time—or the most elaborate collective delusion. Either way, it's fascinating. My background in journalism taught me to separate signal from noise, which is essential in an industry where groundbreaking innovation and obvious scams often look identical at first glance. I approach crypto with skeptical optimism, diving deep into the technology, economics, and cultural movements while maintaining healthy doubt about the hype. Whether I'm explaining blockchain mechanics or decoding market psychology, I write for people who want to understand what's actually happening beneath the memes and moonshot promises.
