But there’s more.

Mark shares what he discovered inside a suspicious Ledger Nano X, how the alleged implant works, and the detection device he’s now developing to identify potential hardware tampering.

From Mt. Gox to hardware wallet security. An extraordinary conversation with someone who witnessed Bitcoin history firsthand.

We believe El Salvador needs its own Bitcoin media company.

That’s why we built BitCorner Media.

More than a podcast. A media institution.

BitCorner started in 2023 as a podcast with a simple idea: bring meaningful conversations about Bitcoin to Spanish-speaking audiences.

Over time, we realized that a podcast alone wasn’t enough.

The Bitcoin ecosystem moves across technology, economics, education, energy, human rights, entrepreneurship and geopolitics. Understanding it requires more than interviews or daily headlines. It requires continuous education, investigation, documentation and access to the people doing the work.

So we decided to build something bigger.

BitCorner Media brings together a podcast, a daily newsroom, a 24/7 television channel, an educational academy and a technology-focused laboratory.

One media company. Multiple ways to understand Bitcoin.

Why El Salvador?

Because El Salvador is more than a headline.

It is a place where Bitcoin has been tested against real-world conditions. Where communities have experimented with circular economies. Where educators are teaching thousands of people about money and technology. Where developers, entrepreneurs and builders are creating things that deserve to be understood beyond the country’s borders.

There are successes, challenges, lessons and unanswered questions.

We don’t believe in romanticizing El Salvador, and we don’t believe in dismissing it either.

We believe in documenting reality.

The world doesn’t need another outlet repeating the same narratives. It needs people willing to go deeper, verify information, speak with the people involved and explain what is actually happening.

We want to be that media company.

Why Spanish matters

A technology that can change how the world interacts with money should not require English proficiency to understand.

Millions of Spanish speakers deserve access to high-quality Bitcoin education, technical explanations and independent information.

Not simplified narratives. Not recycled translations. Not financial hype.

Real education, original reporting and conversations with the people building the future.

Our ambition is to help close that information gap and make BitCorner a reference point for Bitcoin education in Spanish.

What we’re building

BitCorner Podcast

More than 100 in-depth interviews with engineers, developers, entrepreneurs, educators, researchers and people shaping the Bitcoin ecosystem. Conversations that go beyond the headlines to understand how things work, why decisions are made and what we can learn from them.

BitCorner Newsroom

Daily Bitcoin coverage in Spanish and English. Our objective is to make important developments understandable, accessible and verifiable. Every story should have sources. Every number should be checked. Every claim should be attributed.

BitCorner TV

A 24/7 channel bringing Bitcoin content, conversations and educational programming to audiences around the world.

BitCorner Academy

Free educational courses covering Bitcoin and artificial intelligence. We believe access to knowledge should not be a privilege reserved for people with money or technical backgrounds.

BitCorner Labs

A space for practical technology, experimentation and tools. We want to connect knowledge with implementation and help companies understand and work with Bitcoin-related technology.

What makes us different?

Our philosophy is simple: Don’t trust, verify.

We don’t want people to believe something simply because we published it.

We want to show our work.

That means naming sources, checking numbers, attributing claims, understanding technical details and being transparent about what we know and what we don’t.

We are not here to promote a price, manufacture hype or turn every development into a victory narrative.

We are here to educate, investigate, document and explain.

Bitcoin is our subject, but the deeper story is about people, incentives, technology, freedom, sovereignty and the systems shaping our future.

This is bigger than media.

We see an opportunity to build something that doesn’t yet exist at the scale we envision: an independent, Bitcoin-focused media company with roots in El Salvador and an international audience.

A platform where Salvadoran voices can reach the world.

Where Spanish-speaking students can learn directly from the people building the technology.

Where companies can connect with an educated audience.

Where engineers can explain their work, educators can share knowledge and important stories don’t disappear after a news cycle.

And where the next generation of Salvadoran builders can see that they don’t have to wait for the world to create opportunities for them.

They can build them.

We started with a podcast. We are building a media company.

Not because the world needs more content, but because it needs better information, better education and more people willing to do the work.

Bitcoin is not dead in El Salvador. It is being taught, built and lived every day.

And we’re going to document it.

BitCorner Media

Born in El Salvador. Built for the world.

Don’t trust, verify.

31 Oct 2008. An email lands on a cryptography mailing list: "a new electronic cash system… with no trusted third party."

Nobody has ever met the sender. He vanished in 2011.

The ghost left. The network kept running. 👻

Happy Whitepaper Day. Happy Halloween. 🎃

A catastrophe, no doubt, and all my support goes out to the families, but no government or minister should be labeled a terrorist for something like this, and that's not fair.
