Willy Woo, New Zealand native living in Hong Kong, has built a 21st century media empire.

His newsletter, “The Bitcoin Forecast,” routinely tops Substack’s leaderboard and his tweets sometimes break news from China’s crypto industry. But like all news on social media, it’s worth taking his predictions with a grain of salt.
