    Welcome to the Nordic Node, a Newsletter from BTCHEL

    Your No. 1 Place for What’s Bitcoining in the Nordics!

    We are rolling out our biweekly newsletter, specifically focusing on the Nordics! BTCHEL is already the biggest Bitcoin conference in the Nordic countries, and as an effort to dominate the media landscape (and educate our fellow northern brethren in the orange art), we’re launching a media empire. Goal? “Become the most impactful Bitcoin media in the Nordics.”

    “We’re already the most impactful Bitcoin event in our region. Now we’re increasing our focus on digital media, too, in order to deliver the best possible physical events for our attendees.”


    Remu dropped the full story the other week, together with what else is cooking in Helsinki:

    Every other week, the Nordic Node collects the best, snarkiest, most interesting Bitcoin news from our Nordic latitudes — from the 54.35°N of southernmost Denmark to the far, frigid realms of Rossøya, Svalbard (80.50°N). We cover all things Bitcoin across Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Iceland, and, of course, Finland, home to our great benefactor and the largest Bitcoin conference across these lands. (Some have said it might even be the best Bitcoin event out there…)

    For today’s inaugural newsletter, we have two stories of quirky bitcoin coverage in tradfi Scandinavian media: First, Dagens Nyheter, Sweden’s largest newspaper, telling its readers that the spending vouchers given out at Litteraturmässan, “litcoins,” were not at all like bitcoin!

    Second, Denmark’s central bank is shocked to learn that no more than 4% of Danes confess to owning “crypto-assets.”
