Three years ago, as the Bitcoin Law was coming into effect in El Salvador, I began my journey as a Bitcoin journalist. I started writing a newsletter in my native language, Italian, and called it 'Bitcoin Train.’ It’s a weekly newsletter that, starting from the latest news, delves into Bitcoin, its implications, and related topics.

I named it this way because Bitcoin is a long journey, filled with an almost infinite number of stops. From the initial orange pill to a deeper understanding of the world around us, to a radical shift in perspective, and passing through countless other stages along the way.

After just a few months, I realized that Bitcoin Train was gaining traction and could become something significant. I left my full-time job as a press officer, and within just over a year, the newsletter became my full-time occupation. Today, it is the largest Bitcoin-only newsletter in Italy.

Today, three years since its inception, I want to take it a step further. The events of the past few weeks have made me realize that Nostr could become a crucial technology for freedom of expression in the future, and as a journalist, I’ve decided to bet on it.

Starting today, I will publish the English version of my in-depth articles weekly here, on Nostr. I won’t rely on Substack, Beehiiv, Medium, or other platforms. The articles will be published here, openly.

Soon, I’ll publish an article dedicated to the importance of Nostr and its ties to the events of the past few weeks involving Telegram, Meta, and X.

The journey begins.
