I'm still somewhat new to crypto, and have been turning mostly to YouTubers for getting educated on the field. There are obviously tons of people claiming to be "experts", and some of them are scammers with an agenda. Exhibit A -- Richard Heart. I got sucked into watching some of his interviews because of the whole Roger Ver / BCash issues. (What is the deal with Richard Heart anyway? Does anyone know his background?)

Who do you turn to for good information on everything crypto?

I really like Andreas Antonopolous, and have recently started watching Ivan on Tech and Crypto Tips - both are ok, but don't seem to get too technical.

Anyone I've completely missed that have been helpful?

Carter Thomas is a good one. Coin Mastery is his channel.

I listen to Carter Thomas exclusively. Smart guy, very informative. All you really need for daily info to stay in the loop.

Just stay away from Suppoman, he's a fucking clown and straight up shill

Decentralized Thought. He's a smart guy who gives good breakdowns on certain coins.

I like Omar Bahn. I can't stand Ivan's personality or accent.

Richard Heart is by far the most red pilled and has an understanding of the market better than anyone. He is also a disciple of Game. I wouldn't say he is a YouTuber, but he has a lot of audio recordings about his views on cryptocurrencies, especially Bitcoin which are consciousness raising. I think more recently he has been honest and forthright about his position (before he was just shilling BTC and trashing alts like all other maximalists).

Regarding Richard heart.

He came out of hiding to defend his investment but got emotionally destroyed when BTC caved in after January. I disagree with his maximalism but it was because he felt threatened. He confessed he lost a lot of money because he didn't invest in eth or ICOs. Now he invests in ETH despite it's problems because he thinks it's success is tied to dApps built on the platform, not just it's security.

He has a sketchy past but it's all just hearsay he never defended himself against. His story is that after he got rich off BTC and off his stereo business, he moved to Panama, bought a house. He then gets robbed of his paid-house by his lawyer who is a convicted criminal and was chased out by him and his mafia friends who subsequently go on the net to defame him as a scammer. Richard then moves on and makes enemies back home that want to extort him for money and threaten to doxx him. He doxxes himself as retaliation and says he will doxx his extorter as his close friend which the gang in Panama will go after. This is construed as a threat. The opposing views can be read here:

Yeah...I think all his claims of being a "Billionaire" and "Entrepreneur" without proving he's been involved in any projects immediately got me thinking he's hiding his agenda. On top of that, whenever I see someone who isn't a programmer start talking like they are masters at crypto (Ver for example), I question their technical knowledge as colored by a desire to increase the value of their own crypto.

"You should completely listen to me. Why? Because I was smart enough back in 2011 to buy bitcoin so I could get mushrooms off the Silk Road. But that experience taught me that there was a future to this thing. So 3 hours into a massive trip, a monkey with a tophat carrying a baby came to me and told me I should move back in with my parents and put all my rent money into Bitcoin. I only made $10 / hour working as a janitor, but now look at me...I'm worth millions. That's why I'm smarter than everyone I know".

Yeah, I love the early crypto libertarian buyers...maybe I should have been smoking more weed and yelling about the loss of the "Gold-standard" a few years back.

I like Carter Thomas too.

Others that I think are decent, in no particular order:
Tone Vays
Philakone
Haejin Lee
Phantom Strategies

I agree in the video of Carter Thomas are very instructive

[bgbusiness]

I listen to people who have actually made some bank.
I don't really like to listen to people who got mediocre results.
I love listening to people who are actually playing inside of the cryptocurrency world.

1. Winklevoss Twins.
2. Tim Draper
3. Brock Pierce
4. Vitalik Buterin
5. Brad Garlinghouse
6. CZ Zhao (Founder of Binance)
Just search them up on YouTube and you will see them speaking for a huge crowd.
I just feel like other "analysts" or "experts" are just mico-anyalyzing everything.
They are traders, not investors, so I don't really follow them.

Half of people on this list are already billionaires just from cryptocurrency and are pioneering the entire movement.

I mainly watch his trading bitcoin show for his knowledge of technical analysis and how he uses it for his long term trading style.

He also has a morning news show, but daily news about Bitcoin and the other craptocurrencies isn't that interesting or significant to me.
