They say journalists never stop working. But for Christian, this is not just a metaphor, it is a way of life. By day, he navigates the ever-changing tides of the cryptocurrency market, using words like a seasoned editor and crafting articles that decode jargon for the masses. When a computer goes into hibernation mode, its endeavors take a more mechanical (and sometimes philosophical) turn.
Christian’s journey with the written word began long before the Bitcoin era. In the hallowed halls of academia, he forged his craft as a columnist for his university newspaper. This early love of storytelling paved the way for a successful stint as an editor at a data engineering firm, where winning the first article of the month helped fund a months-long supply of dog and cat treats — a testament to his dedication to his furry companions (more on that later).
Christian then wandered the world of journalism, working for newspapers in Canada and even South Korea. He eventually settled into a local news giant in his native Philippines for a decade, becoming a complete news junkie. But then, something new caught his attention: cryptocurrency. It was like a treasure hunt mixed with storytelling – right up his alley!
So, he got a great gig at NewsBTC, where he was one of the go-to people for all things cryptocurrency. He breaks this confusing stuff down into bite-sized chunks, making it easy for anyone to understand (kudos to his management team for teaching him this skill).
Think it’s all work and no play Christian? Not a chance! When he’s not in front of his computer, you can find him indulging his passion for motorcycles. Christian, a true speed enthusiast, loves repairing his bike and enjoying the fun of the open road on a 320cc Yamaha R3. Once a speed demon who reached 120 miles per hour (a feat he swore he would never repeat), he now prefers horseback riding along the coast, enjoying the wind in his thinning hair.
Speaking of cold, Christian has a crew of furry friends waiting for him at home. Two cats and a dog. He swears that cats are smarter than dogs (sorry, Grizzly), but he loves them all anyway. Apparently, watching his pets chilling helps him analyze and write carefully formatted articles better.
Here’s the thing about this guy: He works a lot, but he supplies himself with enough coffee to last the day – and some very delicious (Filipino) food. He says a delicious meal is the secret ingredient to a killer article. After a long day of crypto campaigning, he relaxes with some rum (mixed with milk) while watching slapstick movies.
Looking ahead, Christian sees a bright future with NewsBTC. He says he considers himself fortunate to be part of a great organization, sharing his expertise and passion with a community that values him, and fellow editors — and bosses — whom he deeply respects.
So, next time you step into the world of crypto, remember the man behind the words – crypto warrior, greasy monkey, and feline philosopher, all rolled into one.
