The most common question I get asked in DMs is how I keep up with #fintech. So that I have a place to point people to, I thought I would start an ongoing thread that I can just add to over time.
First and most important, is probably @pymnts and @karenmpd - Sign up for the email list and read stories that interest you. They do stray from pure payments and fintech stories at times, but provide a great newsfeed every day. https://www.pymnts.com/subscribe/ 
Second, I heartily recommend ARK Invest's newsletter. You don't have to agree with Ark's $TSLA price target to benefit from some solid research.

That includes Twitter feeds of @ARKInvest @mfriedrichARK @GeorgeOfARK and @wintonARK
Here are some other Twitter feeds I esp appreciate:

@CoreDentalDDS - Only person I readily admit just knows more than me about payments

@NicoleLPinto - probably knows more than me about payments, but I won't as readily concede it just yet😀

Will add more as I think of them...
I knew I would think of more. Follow @CBinsights for their excellent quarterly and annual fintech reports you can download for free.

Literally reading its 2019 fintech unicorn report now. https://twitter.com/CBinsights/status/1230281659985035264
This is a paid service, but I recently subscribed to @scuttleblurb's research service which has produced some excellent in-depth reports on the payment networks $MA and $V, payment processing cos $GPN $FIS $FISV $SQ etc

So far gets an early endorsement from me.
Here's another must follow for fintech: @MarvinStone. Great links and insight on fintech happenings and news.
Also The Dentist has a new handle, so anyone finding this thread in the future make sure you follow @BlueToothDDS.

The handle upthread does not work anymore. He's seriously one of the best and has always been extra patient explaining things to me without making me feel dumb 😃
You can follow @Matt_Cochrane7.
Tip: mention @twtextapp on a Twitter thread with the keyword “unroll” to get a link to it.
