Camilla Russo

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; analyzed macro emerging markets moves for the Markets Live blog in New York; was one of the most prolific and dedicated cryptocurrency reporters. Before Bloomberg I wrote international news for Chile’s largest national newspaper, El Mercurio.
