Rob Showell

I am deeply passionate about the transformative potential of blockchain technology, firmly believing that it, along with associated innovations like digital assets, will revolutionise the global business landscape. Much like internet protocols opened up the flow of information globally, public blockchains have the capacity to democratise the flow of value on a global scale.

With a rich professional background spanning 7 years in digital assets and blockchain technology, coupled with 8 years of project management expertise and 4 years in sales and new business development across both B2B and B2C domains, I bring a comprehensive skill set to the table.

My extensive knowledge encompasses a broad spectrum, including research and analysis, ICO/IDO/IEOs, CEX and DEX ecosystems, layer 1&2 protocols, cross-chain bridges, DAOs, AML & KYC procedures, DeFi, Payments, smart contracts, Web3, gaming/P2E, M2E, NFTs, re-balancing, and adjusting portfolios against market cycles, as well as storage options such as warm and cold wallets.

Proficient in risk management, I deploy strategies tailored to market conditions based on a thorough analysis of technical and fundamental factors. These strategies encompass executing long/short positions, yield farming, staking, dollar cost averaging, and managing portfolios with a focus on both large and small-cap coins.

One of my strengths lie in research and analysis, particularly within the digital asset space, where I provide valuable insights into market trends, performance metrics, and investment opportunities.

Furthermore, my expertise extends to tokenomics analysis, involving a comprehensive assessment of token distribution, utility within ecosystems, rewards structures, and economic viability. I leverage on-chain data analytics tools such as Glassnode, Santiment, Dune, Messari, and Token Terminal to monitor critical metrics like transaction volumes, fees, active addresses, network growth, facilitating well-informed decision-making.

In addition, I possess hands-on experience in using and creating crypto market data APIs, seamlessly connecting platforms to access real-time or historical market data for systematic algorithmic trading software.
