About The Monkey


Hi 👋 I am Stefano, the human brain behind Bitcoin Monkey and a freelance web developer.

In my crypto journey, I’ve seen it all since the early days, but lately finding trustworthy news in the chaos has become a real challenge even for the most dedicated enthusiast. There’s just too much noise – sites, articles, blogs, forums, videos, you name it. It’s a minefield of shady sources, scammers, and crypto thieves ready to literally empty your wallet or convince your that the next shitcoin will earn you billions.

That’s where Bitcoin Monkey steps in. 🧑‍💻

I made Bitcoin Monkey to be a no-nonsense cryptocurrency news aggregator. The Monkey sifts through all recent news tracked from legit sources in the past 30 days, bringing you all the trending and top stories worth reading.

Bitcoin Monkey blends human curation with a score-based ranking system. The scores? Crafted from the alchemy of a news piece’s popularity and engagement across diverse social networks.

And why the Monkey, you ask? 🐒

No deep reason. I owned the bitcoinmonkey.org domain since 2015 and thought, why not use it? It started as a Bitcoin Faucet giving away a few Satoshis for free to its visitors (something like Freebitco.in), then took a hiatus for a few long years, and now it’s back in action since 2023.

No real monkeys have been harmed in the making of this website.

Let’s keep it green! 🍃

The crypto world isn’t exactly known for being eco-friendly, so I’m doing what I can. The website is coded efficiently (at least, to the best of my knowledge), hosted on a Netcup VPS, and backed by Cloudflare. Let’s make crypto a little greener, one pageview at a time!
