Yep, agreed.

A lot of my investigative pieces were thrown out or brushed over while i was at Cointelegraph.

Eg: showing how, from A to Z, Bitboy and other crypto influencers, scam people. (i even interviewed with Bitboy for a job to show how the scam works).

I pitched BM for a few similar ideas but they went cold.

I still managed to expose a few truths—egs i reported on two exchanges' insolvency before they froze withdrawals.

One of the funniest was me asking the CEO of Zipmex about his company when I had it on good authority that they were insolvent during the Celsius collapse.

He confirmed on the phone to me they were solvent. All is fine bla bla bla. So i published an article with headline: "Zipmex CEO counters rumours of insolvency" bla bla.

And had to publish a BREAKING article literally 20 minutes later saying ZIPMEX IS INSOLVENT. My call had forced his hand.

I'm now independent but i have money from sponsors. Goes without saying that the sponsorship money distorts my view.

The space needs MUCH MUCH better journalism.

Kudos to you. I'd like to help where I can with ideas and scoops.

I used to watch Bitboy back in the day a lot. Until I found that there is actually tech bitcoin news and podcasts. Curious to read how they scam people. Was it through their nft programs?
