The team

Practitioners, not evangelists.

A small team with deep markets and content backgrounds. We came to bitcoin from inside the equity-research and portfolio-management world, not from the other side. That's the lens we bring to your conversation.

Michael Paige M. Paige · Australia
Co-Founder & Principal

Michael Paige

A decade of equity-market experience as an associate adviser, an equity analyst, and most recently the leader of the Content team at Simply Wall St, overseeing the weekly Market Insights newsletter delivered to a global customer base.

That work shaped the editorial discipline he brings here: turn complex market structure into a story a reader can act on, without losing the nuance. Michael has been a bitcoiner since 2020, and founded Blockwise to do for advisers and business owners what the best equity-research desks do for institutional investors, offer rigour, framework, and a written record.

His view on the firm's job: help people approach this asset class with the same care they apply to everything else on the balance sheet, and document the reasoning either way. The right answer for some clients is "no allocation, here's why." That's still the firm's job to write down.

→ How we work

Three commitments we won't trade away.

Evidence over advocacy

We cite the institutional research, the regulatory filings and the data. We don't wave around price-target tweets. The strongest case for bitcoin is the boring one — that's the case we make.

Honest about risk

Bitcoin has experienced >70% drawdowns historically. It will likely do so again. Any client conversation we run names this explicitly and give the broader understanding of just exactly what risks are involved with Bitcoin compared to other asset classes.

Inside our own lines

We don't hold a financial-advice licence and we don't pretend to. Our work is education, consulting and operational support — we're transparent about that boundary with every adviser, business owner and individual who engages us.
