A Molly White for Everything

My only complaint is that there isn’t a Molly White for every possible topic that could provide this level of coverage. Molly is both thorough and clearly interested in what she is working on in a deep and meaningful way. And it comes through in all of her writing. Citation Needed is the perfect mix of passion project and journalistic chops. Thanks for everything, Molly!

Molly White does incredible work covering all the twists and turns of the crypto industry. Web3 is Going Great is a wonderful resource but this podcast version of Molly’s newsletter is my favorite way to receive it.

Citation Needed by Molly White really is the best podcast. [Edit: now some other shows seem to be inspired by Molly. Awesome!] I like the depth and breadth of subjects, definition of technical terms and synchronization with a written newsletter which is (also) worth a subscription. Web3 Is Going Just Great is a helpful criticism of over-hyped cryptocurrency marketing and a brilliantly produced recap of that is provided in this podcast.

Molly is an excellent resource for technically minded people interested in the crypto world but not following it obsessively. although her delivery is a little on the dry side each episode is dense with information and extremely well researched.
