I’m Robin. My journey in the world of independence began with bitcoin, which opened doors for me that traditional journalism couldn’t. When no one would pay me to write about bitcoin, I decided to create my own job and build something meaningful.
For now, you will find three things that fascinate me deeply on this website: bitcoin, AI and my writing.
My goal in life is pretty simple: do many things, but in a way that I like it. Everybody works for someone, but I’ve managed to do it in a way that I mostly enjoy.
Bitcoin: The Foundation
Bitcoin has always been my main interest and the catalyst for my career shift. I started by writing about bitcoin when it was still an emerging topic, driven by a belief in its potential.
This passion led me to create platforms dedicated to this revolutionary technology:
- Bitcoin Focus:
- A Dutch platform solely dedicated to Bitcoin.
- Features a newsletter. And a physical magazine, we released our first edition in 2023. We are the only magazine made for and by bitcoiners in The Netherlands
I sold two of my earlier projects: bitcoinmagazine.nl and blockchainstories.com. The former because we got a good offer, the second because my interest in blockchain was really short. It’s bitcoin only for me.
Integrating AI: The Next Frontier
As AI technology evolved, it became a natural addition to my work. The intersection of AI and Bitcoin offers exciting possibilities, and this inspired the creation of this blog.
I’m also building a Dutch blog specifically about AI:
- AI Wereld
- A hub for AI enthusiasts.
- Features news, discussions, and unique content.
- A place for followers of AI to stay updated and engage in meaningful conversations.
Personal Projects and Adventures
Beyond these professional pursuits, I started The Adventworers with my girlfriend, where we share our travel stories and adventures. I moved from The Netherlands to Mexico to explore new horizons and immerse myself in a different culture. This blog is a creative outlet to document the places we’ve explored and the experiences we’ve had.
My interests and passions have shifted over the years. I can lose myself for hours, weeks, months in very niche topics. Some of them might stick, others will get a place in the back of my mind to never be used again.
When I was really young, I loved reading and thinking about dinosaurs. The other cliché is space: I loved it, and I still do. I haven’t found the time to use my professional time to delve in to these topics, but this blog might be a good excuse to do just that.
My Vision
This blog is a place where I will explore everything I do, and I’m interested in. We have to see how it develops and what I can do with it. With Robin and AI I want to create a place where I can share my thoughts, troubles and insights with like-minded people. From family to friends, to complete strangers with some of the same hobbies or interests. Let’s build something cool. 🙂
