Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolMarco Argentieri is a Bitcoin-focused product leader and entrepreneur with over a decade building infrastructure and commercial services that expand Bitcoin utility and adoption. From helping launch Italy’s first Bitcoin ATM and a regional brokerage in 2013–2016 to leading product and covenant work at Vulpem Ventures, he blends early-stage operations with protocol-level thinking. Now CEO of Ark Labs and Head of Innovation for Lugano’s Plan ₿, he is building ArkadeOS, a virtualization-style modular OS to make Bitcoin-native apps as composable and developer-friendly as cloud platforms while preserving decentralization. Marco serves on the Liquid Network Technology Board, bridging Layer 2 design with practical user tooling and custody flows. His background spans hands-on mobile and web engineering to strategic blockchain product design, and he often brings an operator’s pragmatism to cryptographic and systems-level problems. Based in Lugano, he pairs grassroots Bitcoin adoption experience with a vision for developer-first standards that simplify cross-layer integration.
