Hi, Iām Ben. You may know me from hard-hitting and award-winning posts on PeercoinTalk and /r/Peercoin such as:
ā¦and far too many other comments on a variety of topics
To my friends and family, I speak a strange dialect of ātech geekā. Iām a digital asset evangelist, and love to develop relationships with others who are interested in the space. On a list of ācareers I want to have when I grow up,ā I would pick āVenture Altruistā.
Iām āBenā on the PeercoinTalk forums, āMtinieā on Reddit and BitcoinTalk (and other less-frequented crypto sites).
Iāve been involved with Jordan Leeās Peershares and Nu projects since February of 2014, after actively following his work on PeercoinTalk. In June of 2014 I moved from supporting the projects part-time to making it my full-time gig. My IT background is in software design for Enterprise finance and project management software, but my original area of study was architecture and graphic design.
On the Nu development team, I try to fill lot of roles, but for the most part youāll find me focused on building out the infrastructure for the network (these forums, testnet services, blogs, analytics, and a few other up and coming projects soon to be revealed), working on business development and partnership agreements to bring exchanges and other service providers onboard with Nu, and then as an occasional front-end design-eloper.
I enjoy making things (with a heavy focus on interweaving art and technology).
I live in the United States (right outside Washington, D.C., in Northern Virginia), but my heart and mind are found in the block chain. Letās meet up some time if you are in the area!
