I’m on a mission to make crypto accessible to everyone (including my grandma)

My name is Hemu. I’m the Head of Product at a crypto exchange called Osmosis, where we’ve processed $42 billion in transactions to date. Now, I’m on a mission to make crypto accessible to everyone else, and we’re building my dream crypto app - Polaris.

I spend most of my waking hours researching everything happening in the world of crypto while making decisions on what our team builds.

Crypto is here to stay and I’m on a mission to make sure no one gets left behind. If you’re here, you likely realized most of the content online consists of scammy influencers flaunting shiny cars or overly technical engineers that seem to be gatekeeping crypto from the rest of us. Not to mention the mainstream media which has spent the last 10 years calling it a scam.

But did you know that today, banks around the world are buying billions of dollars of crypto, and the US government is actually the 7th largest holder of Bitcoin?

📆 Every week, you can expect

  1. 🎓 A bite-sized explainer about something in crypto. Taught in the simplest way with my grandma in mind. Crypto shouldn’t be scary and yes, while we’ll sometimes dive into what a Blockchain is, we’ll also talk about things like how crypto is used around the world. No one will be left behind.

  2. 📈 Paid readers will also get weekly crypto market updates that anyone can understand. All of us are here to make money. While this is never financial advice, the reality is most of us are wondering if we’re too late or if it’s a good time to buy some Bitcoin. Or maybe time to sell it and take some profits. Without diving into complex graphs and intimidating data, I’ll share weekly updates on why markets are rising or tanking, and what that means for you and me.

👋 If you want to learn more

I post daily stories on Instagram here, with behind the scenes of my life at a crypto exchange here. I’m also fairly active on Twitter and happy to answer any questions you have, there!

I’ll also be creating weekly YouTube videos, explaining every concept with way more depth (starting Jan 2025).

Lastly, I imagine you’ve made your way here from TikTok. If not, I cover a new topic every day so follow along!
