About
Why Crypto Explained Simply exists and who writes it.
What this site is
Crypto Explained Simply covers one thing: buying and onboarding, wallets and storage, core concepts, taxes and regulation basics. Everything published here stays inside that scope. If a topic is interesting but outside it, it does not get published, because there are better sites for it.
Start here. No jargon, no assumptions.
Who writes it
Every article on this site is written by Hannah Lowe. Writes the introductory material for people who are starting from zero.
Readers are assumed to be complete beginners arriving from "what is" and "how to" searches.
How articles are written
Claims that can be checked are checked. Where a number matters, the article says where it came from and when it was measured. Where something is uncertain, the article says so instead of rounding the uncertainty away. Costs, risks and inconvenient details are included, because leaving them out is how crypto writing usually goes wrong.
What this site does not do
No price predictions. No investment advice. No paid placements dressed up as reviews. Nothing here should be read as a recommendation to buy or sell anything. It is written to explain how things work so you can make your own decision.
