Editorial Team: Who Writes RegulCrypto Content
The RegulCrypto Editorial Team
A small group of crypto traders, writers, and researchers who have collectively spent thousands of hours testing exchanges, building tools, and answering reader questions since 2024.
RegulCrypto is run as a small, focused editorial operation rather than a content factory. We deliberately stay small to maintain quality control and editorial independence. Here is who is behind the content.
Our Editorial Roles
Sets editorial direction, owns ranking methodology, conducts hands-on testing of major exchanges. Trading crypto since 2017 across BTC bull cycle, DeFi summer, NFT mania, and bear markets. Background in financial research with focus on derivatives markets and exchange infrastructure.
Areas of expertise: Exchange comparison methodology, futures trading, fee optimization, security audits.
Builds and maintains the interactive calculators on RegulCrypto. Background in quantitative finance and front-end engineering. Ensures math is correct, mobile-responsive, and updated when exchange fee structures or tax brackets change.
Areas of expertise: Tax calculations across 15+ jurisdictions, futures math (P&L, liquidation, funding), DCA strategies, compound interest modeling.
Tracks crypto regulation, tax brackets, and exchange availability across 17 countries. Maintains country-specific guides and ensures legal status updates within 30 days of policy changes. Specifically tracks MiCA rollout in EU and DAC8 reporting framework.
Areas of expertise: Country-specific crypto regulation, tax planning across jurisdictions, exchange country availability mapping.
Reviews every published piece for accuracy, currency, and adherence to our editorial standards. Cross-references claims against primary sources. Manages the quarterly review cycle for evergreen content.
Areas of expertise: Fact-checking, source verification, content auditing, editorial standards enforcement.
How We Work
Team Size: Intentionally Small
We do not employ a content farm. Our small team allows tight editorial control, faster updates when crypto reality changes, and consistent voice across the site. The downside: we cover fewer exchanges than larger sites. The upside: every piece we publish is hand-tested, not assembled from press releases.
Decision-Making
Rankings, methodology updates, and editorial direction are decided by group consensus among the editorial team. No single person can unilaterally change a ranking โ this prevents both bad-faith manipulation and well-intentioned mistakes.
Outside Contributions
We occasionally publish guest contributions from credentialed crypto experts โ but only when topics fall outside our core competencies (e.g., specific country tax law). All guest content is clearly marked, fact-checked by our editorial team, and never includes affiliate links inserted by the contributor.
Our Backgrounds
Collectively, our team has experience in:
- Active crypto trading since 2017 across multiple exchanges
- Quantitative finance and derivatives mathematics
- Software engineering (frontend, backend, mobile)
- Tax law in multiple jurisdictions (USA, UK, Canada, Germany, Spain)
- Independent journalism and editorial standards
- Security research (smart contract audits, exchange security analysis)
We do not claim to be the most credentialed crypto researchers on the internet โ we just claim to be honest, rigorous, and willing to update when we are wrong.
Why Pseudonymous?
You will notice we do not list specific names or photos for our team members. This is intentional and common in crypto editorial spaces for several reasons:
- Doxxing risk: Crypto researchers who criticise specific exchanges have faced harassment, threats, and worse. Pseudonymous editorial protects team members.
- Conflict avoidance: Team members may also work in adjacent industries where public identification could create real or perceived conflicts of interest.
- Focus on the work: Without “celebrity author” branding, readers focus on the content quality rather than the author’s social profile.
This choice is a trade-off. It costs us some E-E-A-T (Expertise/Experience/Authoritativeness/Trust) signals that Google might otherwise reward. We accept that cost in exchange for editorial independence.
If you need to verify our claims independently, our methodology page lays out exactly how we score and test exchanges. Our work is checkable against your own data.
Editorial Standards
We hold ourselves to these standards on every published piece:
- Accuracy first. Wrong data is worse than no data. We verify before publishing.
- Cite sources. Major claims link to primary sources (exchange fee pages, regulatory authorities, etc.).
- Update when wrong. If a reader proves a claim is incorrect, we correct it within 48 hours.
- Disclose conflicts. Affiliate relationships are flagged at every CTA.
- No manipulation. We do not write hyperbolic headlines, fake urgency, or scare tactics to drive signups.
