Currently Editor-in-Chief of Adamant Research, where we focus on global macro investment opportunities with specialisation in Bitcoin & blockchain technology. I have an 'out of the box'​ approach, combining academic rigor, a focus on historical patterns, productive investment paranoia, and a knack for exploring new territories and opportunities. I've been publicly commenting on macro economic trends since 2008, my investment newsletter MacroTrends was launched in 2011 and ran until November 2013, when I passed it to a successor. I'm a regular speaker at Bitcoin conferences.In 2006, I co-founded the Belgian Rothbard Institute, an academic, research-oriented think tank. I was also co-founder of and staff member at the independent Sudbury school 'De Kampanje, School voor Persoonlijk Ondernemerschap'​.In 2011, my paper "The Business Cycle: A Definition"​ was published in the Spanish academic paper 'Procesos de Mercado'​ (see attachment below). I worked on this paper for many months, and I stand by it as my proof and illustration that the science of economics is meaningless without a fundamental connection to morality and natural law. Neglected as this paper has been so far, I'm proud of it and I think it will withstand the test of time. As a freelance translator, I translated the following two books: - Murray Rothbard, 'Wat Heeft de Overheid met Ons Geld Gedaan?'​ (2006, Murray Rothbard Instituut)- Jesus Huerta de Soto, 'Geld, Krediet, en Crisis'​ (2011, Acco) Twitter: twitter.com/tuurdemeesterSkype: danmasterxFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/tuur.demesterTelegram: @TuurDemeester (https://t.me/TuurDemeester)
