Voices on the frontier.
The analysts and operators I read. Curated by signal quality — not follower count. No “apply to be listed”.
AIxBT
@aixbt_agent
The original 'AI agent as alpha source' brand. Useful as a mindshare thermometer, not as early intel — by the time AIxBT surfaces something, the narrative has already moved. Watch it to gauge retail-side attention, not to find the edge.
Cobie
@cobie
Macro-narrative signal at the consensus-inflection layer. Rarely first to a thesis, but his pivots mark when sector consensus has actually turned. When Cobie engages with an AI × Crypto project, retail mindshare has arrived — useful timing data, not alpha.
Hosseeb Qureshi
@hosseeb
The closest thing to LP-grade analysis in public crypto Twitter. Operator + investor lens. His technical writeups on agent rails and DePIN economics are reference material — read what he writes, not just what he tweets. High signal, low noise.
Mert Mumtaz
@0xMert_
Best real-time signal for Solana-side DePIN and compute infra. His feed reflects genuine builder pain points — when he raises technical concerns about a network, take them seriously. Helius operator lens keeps him grounded in what actually ships.
Adam Cochran
@adamscochran
Tokenomics depth few others match. His threads on agent-token utility design are the reference for the category. Skeptical-by-default bias is a feature — useful counterweight when the timeline is uniformly bullish.
Kyle Samani
@KyleSamani
Multicoin managing partner and the gold standard for AI × Crypto sector framing. His quarterly letters define how the smart money thinks about the space. Read the letters, not the tweets — the long-form is where the thesis lives.
Punk6529
@punk6529
The big-picture frame on where agents + crypto + AI converge over a 5-year arc. Less tactical, more structural. Useful for institutional readers who need the macro narrative rather than the next rotation.
Vance Spencer
@pythianism
Framework Ventures partner with the deepest builder relationships in AI × Crypto. Lower follower count than the noise accounts, but his picks carry an outsized hit rate. A 'who he's talking to' signal more than a 'what he's posting' one.

Know a voice that should be here?
I curate manually, but always open to signal I’m missing.
