More than a decade in crypto markets, ten years in corporate finance before that, six books, and a research terminal I built because I was tired of trading without seeing what the big players saw.
I got into crypto early, drawn in by the technology and the idea of markets that never close. For years I was simply trading my own money and making the mistakes everyone makes: holding losers too long, adding leverage after a winning streak, buying the dip in a downtrend because it looked cheap.
Before crypto I spent ten years in business and financial analysis at HSBC, Shell and Ecolab. That's where I learned to read numbers properly and to make decisions when the picture is incomplete. It took me a surprisingly long time to apply that training to a market that runs 24 hours a day and punishes guesswork.
At some point I started writing down what I'd learned, for the reader I had once been — someone looking for a practical book on crypto and not finding one. That became six books on crypto investing and trading, read in more than ten countries.
In 2026 I built TVC Fusion: a research terminal that puts on-chain flows, order-book liquidity, derivatives positioning, ETF flows and macro events on one screen, and runs a rules-based paper-trading system that logs every decision before the outcome is known and publishes it afterwards, losses included. I had no programming background. I built it over several months because I wanted the desk I never had as a retail trader.
Six guides, from a first bitcoin purchase to derivatives, DeFi risk and cross-border tax. Written for people who want to understand what they're doing before they risk money. Plus a free pre-trade checklist.
A crypto research terminal with a public, rules-based paper-trading record. Eight data layers, one score per asset, the reasoning written out. Closed beta; access by waitlist.
Market reads, macro context and the lessons behind the data, published on LinkedIn three times a week. Every call dated, every miss graded.
Three rules I don't bend, because every expensive mistake I've made came from bending one of them.

The books teach the method. The terminal shows it working, with every decision on the record.
