Author

Myrick Matthew is a senior reporter at CryptoNewsLive covering Bitcoin, on-chain market data, and macroeconomic signals in the digital asset market. He specializes in translating on-chain metrics into readable market context — cost basis cohort analysis, exchange inflow spikes, whale accumulation patterns, and derivatives positioning data. His reporting draws primarily on CryptoQuant and Santiment data, combined with technical chart analysis from practitioners active on X. At CryptoNewsLive, Myrick has covered the Bitcoin cost basis ladder that made $74,900 the key level during the April 2026 correction, the large holder exchange inflow warning signals that preceded the same move, and the Inter-exchange Flow Pulse golden cross that signalled the early-March 2026 bull phase before price confirmed it. He covers spot ETF inflow data weekly and tracks the gap between ETF cost basis and current price — a metric most outlets ignore. His approach is grounded in the data rather than the narrative. He follows the numbers and lets them lead the story. His reporting at CryptoNewsLive has covered Bitcoin's cost basis ladder analysis during the 2026 correction, large holder exchange flow warnings ahead of major price moves, and the Inter-exchange Flow Pulse indicator that confirmed the early-March 2026 bull market signal. He follows and contextualizes data from CryptoQuant, Santiment, and Glassnode daily. Myrick has been active in crypto markets and communities since the previous cycle, bringing a long-term perspective to short-term price events that most readers find more useful than reactionary commentary.

Navid Gerald is a senior reporter at CryptoNewsLive specializing in Ethereum, XRP, DeFi, and crypto security. He has covered blockchain and digital finance for seven years, with a focus on the technical mechanics of how protocols work, how they break, and what the implications are for the people building on or holding assets tied to them. His reporting at CryptoNewsLive spans Ethereum's full 2026 roadmap — from the zkEVM deployment schedule and quantum-resistant signature research disclosed by Vitalik Buterin at Hong Kong Web3 Carnival, to the Pectra upgrade impact and Layer 2 composability developments. On XRP, he has covered Ripple's post-quantum cryptography roadmap, the XRPL SwissHacks 2026 developer challenge, and the ongoing CLARITY Act Senate negotiations as reported by Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse. His most significant individual piece of reporting in 2026 was the same-day forensic breakdown of the KelpDAO rsETH bridge exploit — tracing the LayerZero lzReceive call that forged the cross-chain message, the $236 million WETH borrow on Aave, the 100% ETH pool utilization that locked depositors out, and the $6.28 billion TVL collapse — while Aave's governance forum was still mid-debate about bad debt allocation.
