Authors

Gunay Ilhan is the founder and editor of Metaprimary and the author of every article published on the site. Gunay started Metaprimary with a simple goal: to explain blockchain technology so clearly that a reader with no technical background can follow it from the first paragraph to the last.

The articles focus on how things work rather than on prices or predictions. Gunay writes with readers in Japan in mind, includes Japanese terms where they help, and keeps every explanation grounded in primary documentation.

Gunay Ilhan founded Metaprimary and edits every article published on it, setting the editorial standards of ILHAN İÇERİK DANIŞMANLIĞI ANONİM ŞİRKETİ, the İstanbul company that publishes the site.
