Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolMolly White is a researcher, writer, and former software engineer with 13 years of experience who critically examines the cryptocurrency and broader technology sectors through her independent publication Citation Needed and projects like Web3 is Going Just Great. She combines rigorous investigative journalism and public-facing advocacy—bylines in The New York Times and The Guardian, speaking slots at SXSW and Web Summit, and guest lectures at Harvard, MIT, and Stanford—with hands-on engineering experience as a former HubSpot tech lead who migrated major frontends to modern stacks and built developer documentation and tooling teams. An active Wikipedian for over 15 years (GorillaWarfare), she brings deep commitments to free, open access to high-quality information and to human-centered digital governance. Molly advises policymakers and regulators internationally, tracking crypto industry influence through Follow the Crypto, and frames her critique of technology around the principle that tech should serve human needs rather than profit.
