{"id":7,"name":"James Okafor","url":"","description":"James Okafor is the founding Editor-in-Chief of TheWeal, where he sets editorial standards across crypto news, live-market data and the publication's price-prediction work. He has reported on financial markets since 2009, beginning on the equities desk before moving full-time into digital assets in 2016 as institutional money first entered the space. James has overseen coverage of every major market cycle since \u2014 from the 2017 retail mania and the 2018 winter through DeFi summer, the 2021 highs and the deleveraging that followed. His editorial philosophy is unfashionably simple: explain what is actually happening, show the reader the data behind it, and never dress up a guess as a fact. Based in London, he is responsible for the never-list that governs what TheWeal will and will not publish, for the corrections process, and for the human review that sits behind every model-based prediction the site produces. He is accountable for everything that carries the TheWeal masthead. James reads every reader correction personally and considers a published mistake, promptly and visibly fixed, more trustworthy than one quietly buried.","link":"https:\/\/theweal.com\/de\/author\/james-okafor\/","slug":"james-okafor","avatar_urls":{"24":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/25567623ddc74b9c3e3d2347d68ec4c1fd04c76d90723352352cd3f4b57c3c1b?s=24&d=mm&r=g","48":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/25567623ddc74b9c3e3d2347d68ec4c1fd04c76d90723352352cd3f4b57c3c1b?s=48&d=mm&r=g","96":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/25567623ddc74b9c3e3d2347d68ec4c1fd04c76d90723352352cd3f4b57c3c1b?s=96&d=mm&r=g"},"meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/theweal.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/7","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/theweal.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users"}]}}
