    Today, I’m honored to share that I’ll be stepping into the role of CEO at @coingecko, as my co-founder @tmlee transitions to President. What began as a side project has grown into a global platform used by millions. TM’s vision and leadership laid the foundation of CoinGecko.

    Product feedback time. Many of you have requested that CoinGecko add tokens' supply vesting schedule so that it's easier to track when the next big unlock is happening. Our Ops team went out to source info for five tokens. Do you guys find this useful?

    If this is the market crashing for the next 3 years, I don't mind it. 💎🙌 since 2013. What's another 3 more years? At least during the bear market: - We can BUIDL in peace - People are courteous - Less scammers - Only real believers in the community P/S: My portfolio -60% too

    A lot of people don't realize this but @coingecko is only 16 pax strong and based out of Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. For the longest time until end-2017, it was just @tmlee and I. Big is not always necessarily better when it comes to building a product that the market wants.

    It's insane that the developer of Tornado Cash was arrested for writing code that aims to improve crypto privacy. The authorities should go after the parties misusing the code for nefarious purposes, not the creator of the code. More devs will choose to build anonymously.

    Sorry about the USDT FUD from our side. Tether did not depeg. There was a data issue on our side coming from API connection issues with a few exchanges. We have patched the issue but monitoring things closely.

    Seeing a price discrepancy of USDt on coingecko. While USDt trades close to parity (+-10bps), coingecko reports 3% from parity. Looks like a glitch to me. Binance, Bitfinex, Coinbase are all trading within 10bps from parity.

    Telegram bot tokens will be the next crypto meta in the coming 1-2 months. Agree or disagree?
