>>not involved in the exchange of cryptocurrencies

... seems overkill. So any journalist who has actually transacted with Bitcoins is off the platform? That seems like mainly negative effects from the standpoint of "selecting for informed journalists".

"Sure, you can use our platform to talk about cryptocurrencies, as long as you're just one of those admire-from-a-distance types."

Ditto for production -- that would include e.g. anyone who's contributed code.
