Independent Crypto Research Analyst
Amit Rathore
I test crypto investment theses against primary data before capital gets committed to them. Protocol mechanics, trade structures, and backtests, built from exchange data and published with corrections when the evidence changes. Not narrative.
Selected work
Independently verified analysis. Every piece states its methodology up front and shows the data behind it.
About
I have been in crypto markets since 2020. I watched the 2020-21 DeFi and NFT expansion, the 2022 collapses, and the institutional recovery that followed. That history taught me one thing: every number in this market is a claim until someone checks it, and almost nobody checks.
My work is that check. I reconcile reported metrics against underlying sources, build trade theses from live exchange data with explicit invalidation levels, and publish backtests alongside their corrections, including the correction that overturned my own earlier trade thesis once a robustness check showed the original result did not hold up. I show you where a thesis breaks instead of selling you one that has not been tested.
