Thinking Crypto

Hosted by Thinking Crypto

A daily podcast covering cryptocurrency news, market analysis, and interviews with industry leaders, hosted by investor Tony Edward.

The brief

A daily resource for crypto market intelligence, split between two distinct formats. One is a solo-hosted news brief where host Tony Edward covers price action, regulatory news like the CLARITY Act, and major institutional moves. The other is a long-form interview show featuring founders and executives from major crypto and fintech companies, digging into their products and market views.

The show's daily cadence and dual format of news analysis and industry interviews provide a consistent, high-signal overview of the professionalizing crypto landscape, with a particular focus on US legislative developments.
