David Z Morris
Fortune magazine staffer David Z. Morris is joining CoinDesk as its chief insights columnist.
Morris has been with Fortune since June 2019.
He has been writing about cryptocurrency since 2013, when his coverage for Fortune was among the first serious treatments of the topic in the mainstream press. He covered the announcement of Ethereum by a teenage Vitalik Buterin, the Bitcoin block-size wars, and the rise and fall of ICOs for outlets including Fortune, Slate, and the Atlantic.
In 2018, he joined the short-lived but hugely influential Breaker Mag. After Breaker’s demise he joined the Fortune staff, editing the Ledger fintech newsletter while reporting on topics from cybersecurity to politics to vaccine technology.
Morris was previously a freelance writer with bylines in Pacific Standard, Entrepreneur and other outlets. Morris is a graduate of the University of Texas.
