I’m Elara Nguyen, Protocols & Security Editor at CoinNewsie. I cover the parts of crypto that break quietly before they break loudly: smart contract risk, governance design, bridges, validator incentives, and the operational details that decide whether a project is resilient or fragile. I enjoy the work that starts with a simple question—“is this actually true?”—and ends with documentation, primary sources, and a clear explanation that non-engineers can follow.
My editorial approach is to treat every major claim like a miniature investigation: trace it to an on-chain event, a code change, an official disclosure, or a verifiable dataset, then explain implications without drama. I’ve worked with technical teams and newsrooms where accuracy, careful wording, and transparent uncertainty mattered more than hot takes. At CoinNewsie, I aim to make security and protocol coverage readable, practical, and grounded in evidence.
