Financial Disclosures

Blockworks is committed to maintaining a standard of transparent and non-biased coverage of the digital asset ecosystem.

As part of our mission to provide investors and financial service firms with the best source of information for cryptoassets, and to avoid any potential bias or conflict of interest, it is important for Blockworks to maintain the same standard of transparency that we demand from our industry. That is why our data, research, advisory and media teams have implemented a disclosure policy around personal crypto holdings.

On this page, you will find a list of disclosures from Blockworks employees. Any material holdings, defined as $5,000 or more, of digital assets will be listed next to the employee’s name.

If “Yes” is indicated, it means they have an ownership interest in the listed asset valued at $5,000 or more. If they selected “No”, it does not mean they do not own the asset. It means their ownership interest is less than $5,000 in value.

These numbers will be updated on a monthly basis. January 2026 disclosures below, updated January 5:

Latest Research

Fully homomorphic encryption is emerging as the leading cryptographic approach to onchain confidentiality, enabling computation directly on encrypted data without exposure. We are constructive on FHE as a category and Zama as the clear leader, though the 1,000x+ computational overhead and hardware dependency represent material execution risks that make throughput scaling the key variable for valuation.
