Alessandro Palombo · The Ale's Letter

Benvenuti!

Where you and your family are based is becoming one of the most consequential decisions of the decade. But most of the intelligence on it is fragmented, single-country, and often outdated by the time you find it.

That’s the gap this publication exists to close.

If you have found yourself here, chances are you prioritize at least a few of these:

  • Hidden cities and places most people never look at

  • Retiring somewhere warmer, cheaper, or more beautiful

  • European lifestyle without European prices

  • Multiple passports and residencies

  • Tax optimization

  • Sovereignty and optionality

  • Thinking in decades, not quarters…

If so, then you have arrived at the right place.

Here's a short video that walks through what this publication is, what you'll get, and why it could be of value to you:

To build the best jurisdictional intelligence resource on the internet.

Every week I will be sharing deep dives, practical guides, and unique insights on countries, tax frameworks, residencies, visas, citizenships, that you won’t find compiled anywhere else.

Theory and data matter, but so does lifestyle, so occasionally this will also touch history, game theory, literature, and adjacent matters.

If you spend enough time reading here, you’ll:

  • Know where the real arbitrage lies with data and local insights

  • See jurisdictional moves before they get priced in

  • Understand tax regimes as tools, not obstacles

  • Build positioning across countries, not within one

  • Read the trends 2 to 3 years before the consensus catches up

  • Have a clearer answer for where you and your family should actually be based

I’m an Italian lawyer by training (PhD in Public Law, master’s in the regulation of global markets). Early in my career I realized that practicing law inside one system was not how I wanted to spend my time, so I started building companies across jurisdictions instead. That took me across more than eight countries, through over $1M in cross-border compliance work, and into advisory roles for Oxford’s Deep Tech Lab, San Marino Innovation, and the Astana International Financial Center.

Today I’m co-founder and CEO of Bitizenship and co-founder of Bitizenship Capital SGR, where we focus on investment migration. Over the few years I’ve moved more than €25M through citizenship and investment structures in Europe and beyond.

I’ve lived in six countries and traveled to more than fifty. My family is international.

This is all to say, what you find here is a culmination of a decade of doing this, structured and shared with you every week.

The content I’ve been sharing on X, YouTube, and here has become some of the most-followed jurisdictional intelligence on the internet, with close to half a billion impressions over the past two years.

My aim is to take all of this to the next level and invest in the top resources and experts in the world to bring you the most up to date and nuanced information.

  • 2 newsletters per month on countries, regimes, and strategies

  • Interviews and framework pieces on how the world is repricing residency

  • Free access to public webinars and events we will host

  • Free guide upon joining – currently The Ultimate Guide to Citizenship & Residency Programs in 2026

As it has been, you will get everything you need to build your base knowledge on all these topics when you join.

I’ve kept everything free for a while. The more this publication grows, the more energy and resources I can put into it, so I’m opening the paid tiers now for readers who want to go beyond the base and act on it.

Two tiers. Both open at founding rates.

Free gives you the foundational knowledge. Insider covers the execution: the exact places, the real up-to-date numbers, and the full archive.

  • Everything in Free

  • Up to three paid in-depth guides per month sharing the operational layer: exact towns, prices, timelines, and the catches the brochures leave out

  • Full webinar replay library, including every slide deck

  • The complete guide archive and all prior paid issues

  • Private community chat

  • Regular live AMAs and webinars

  • A vote on the next guide or webinar

Founding rate: $19/month for the first 300 subscribers. Locked in for life.

For the most serious sovereignty-seekers. If you’re actively looking for a network of like-minds and experts, this is where I’m putting my direct time.

This is for readers who want direct access: a private group, time with me, and warm introductions to the vetted lawyers, fund administrators, and banking contacts we work with.

  • Everything in Insider

  • Private group chat (signal/telegram), small and curated

  • Two 30-minute 1-on-1 calls per year, one per semester

  • Custom guides upon request

  • Warm introductions to our vetted practitioner network

  • Locked-in founding rate before the next cohort raises

Ten seats only.

We’re at a critical juncture. The world is moving toward a multi-polar order, and the governance structures we inherited from the 19th and 20th centuries are showing serious limitations. Borders are being redefined. Quality of life and opportunity increasingly depend on where you and your family are based, and AI will keep pushing geography in directions few people are ready for.

Reading these trends and thinking beyond a single country is no longer optional for anyone with a stake in the outcome. That’s what this publication is for. The paid tiers are for readers who want to act on what they read here.

Whichever tier you land on, thank you for being here. This is the beginning of an exciting chapter.

Avanti,

Ale
