Cryptocurrencies, stocks, Argentina, emerging markets…

I’m a financial journalist with experience across continents and asset classes. My focus has been on the crazier/more volatile corners of the market.

I wrote the The Infinite Machine, the first book on the history of Ethereum, which was published by HarperCollins in July, 2020. I’m also the founder and CEO of The Defiant, an information platform focusing on decentralized finance.

During my eight years at Bloomberg I covered the Argentine market (bonds, stocks, FX) for 4+ years based in Buenos Aires; wrote about European stocks with a focus on Southern Europe in Madrid; analysed macro emerging markets moves for the Markets Live blog in New York; was one of the most prolific and dedicated cryptocurrency reporters. Previous to Bloomberg I wrote international news for Chile’s largest national newspaper, El Mercurio.

I’ve moderated and spoken at some of the most influential cryptocurrency conferences, done multiple TV and radio appearances, and was awarded first place for online journalism by Brazil’s exchange operator BM&F Bovespa earlier in my career.

I have a Master of Science degree from Northwestern University’s Medill School of Journalism and a bachelor’s degree from Pontificia Universidad Catolica de Chile.
