The age of crypto is upon us

Cryptocurrencies emerged around the year 2009. Meanwhile, the concept of digital currencies has been doing rounds even well before that. In the last few years, we witnessed massive growth in the crypto world. New users are quickly adopting the technology while developers are working round the clock to offer better and better products that address the pitfalls of earlier versions.

At the forefront of the crypto movement, we see a certain category of individuals that have been broadcasting the message of crypto to the public and generating interest and adoption in cryptocurrency projects. These select individuals are what we have come to know as crypto influencers. Their mass social media following has enabled them to create communities of their own and people ardently listen to their views and recommendations regarding the latest news that is emerging from the industry.

With so many new crypto projects dropping every other day along with new updates and changes in existing ones, it is really difficult to stay on top of the happenings. Crypto influencers use their experience and knowledge of the industry and provide the valuable service of filtering out the real information from all the noise.

Today, we have compiled a list of top crypto influencers that you should follow in 2022.

He is no doubt one of the top names in the industry. Vitalik Buterin was among the early adopters of cryptocurrency and before co-founding Ethereum (in 2014), he also co-founded Bitcoin Magazine in 2011. Recently, Time magazine declared him one of the 100 most influential people in the world. According to Time magazine,

“What makes Vitalik so special, though, is that he is a builder’s builder. No one person could’ve possibly come up with all of the uses for Ethereum, but it did take one person’s idea to get it started. From there, a new world has opened up, and given rise to new ways of leveraging blockchain technology”

If you have done some research on the origins of Bitcoin and early digital currencies then you must be familiar with the name of Nick Szabo. He pioneered one of the earliest known cryptocurrencies called ‘BitGold’. Some even believe him to be Satoshi Nakamoto, the mysterious creator of Bitcoin but he has denied this claim. Nevertheless, Szabo is pretty vocal on his social media and blog about how fiat will be replaced by digital currencies and how inefficient the current monetary system is.

Importance of Doing Your Own Research (DYOR)

If you start searching for crypto influencers you will quickly realize that there is almost a never ending supply of them. Everyone is jumping on the bandwagon and even trying to exploit their user base by making quick returns through pump and dump schemes. While the authentic names such as the few we have listed above are certainly worth following, it should be remembered that nothing beats doing your own research. You should make it a rule to always do your own research before investing your hard-earned money into any cryptocurrency or NFT project.
