10 Highlights From Messari’s Prodigious ‘Crypto Theses 2023’
Clocking in at 157 pages (a slight decrease from 2022’s masterpiece), Messari’s annual “Crypto Theses 2023” remains (IMHO) the industry’s most impressive overview of the crypto ecosystem, and thus a must-read for any crypto enthusiast.
While author Ryan Selkis, co-founder and CEO of Messari, was supported by the ~200 person Messari team (up 3X over 2022), the report was written in the first person by Selkis. I’ve been a Selkis fanboy since Jan. 2020 when he spoke at CryptoMondays NYC and mesmerized us with his discussion of his Crypto Theses 2020 and tales of breaking the Mt. Gox hack story.
The longest chapter in this year’s theses is, regrettably, “Top 10 Trends In Crypto Policies”, but each chapter is strewn with insight. The report’s provides a comprehensive state-of-the-state of crypto coupled with thought-provoking predictions about 2023 and beyond:
As amazing as the report is, few will read all 157 pages even though you should. So below the most intriguing points I found in each of the 10 awesome chapters of the epic report.
