About
Welcome!
I’m Tom - and on Bennet.org, I share everything I wish I’d known about Bitcoin before I started taking it seriously.
I learn best from long, visual explainers - the kind which don’t shy away from details and which ask the big why questions. Two of my favourite websites are Wait But Why and Learn Me A Bitcoin. Here, I aim for something in-between.
Alongside essays and guides, I increasingly focus on charts, calculators, and data visualisations - tools that help make sense of Bitcoin over long time horizons.
I work in tech and develop this website in my spare time. After six years in fintech, I try to bring some of that perspective to how I think and write about Bitcoin.
Tech / Privacy
This website launched in 2025, around block height 892300. It’s built using Astro. It’s a labour of love and I scrutinise every line of code.
The site uses no cookies, trackers, tag managers, or invasive analytics software. Instead I use Plausible, a lightweight and privacy-respecting analytics tool that simply counts visits.
Development of this site is funded primarily through donations. I also offer paid partnerships with companies who wish to embed my calculators and charts on their sites. All commercial relationships are disclosed, and editorial independence is non-negotiable.
