To all crypto-currency investors, Blockchain enthusiast this post is long overdue, I would like to introduce myself and let you know what I am all about.
I have decide to write under "Sudo" name Cryptostein, and will not be revealing my true identity, I don’t really have any specify reason for this and if gets reveal will not have much impact in my day life.
I am a software developer and have been developing since 2004, my first programing languages where HTML, JavaScript, vb6 and ASP classic, and using a SQL database to store relational data.
I am currently a Technical Manager, and coding is still 80% of my day duties and 20% is assisting, advising and guiding other developers. I currently mainly develop in C#, ASP.net, and the company I work for mainly develop custom web development application in the financial sectors.
I got introduce to Blockchain and crypto though my company as one of our clients wanted to write there transactions to the Blockchain as well as accepting bitcoin as payment method. I was not the developer on the project, but we do work closing together and he took me to one of the Ethereum meet-ups. This is where my interest started and then I started to dig deeper and fell in love the Blockchain technology and idea of cryptocurencies.
I am currently reading Andreas Antonopoulos book Mastering bitcoin, which is very good book and I recommend it to everyone that wants a detailed understating of the inner workings of Blockchain technologies.
I have started researching all the alt coins and have seen some amazing ideas and projects as well as found complete scams or dead projects, and that is why I decided to start blogging about my findings, as I was doing the research and thought I will share it with the community.
I have created a sql database by using coinmarketcap.com api to pull the coin information into a sql table as it is easier to query (filter) data, I have written a SQL query that give me 4 results back, one random coin in the top 100, one random coin in the top 200, one random across all coins and once random coin from the recently added page. I then pick one coin from the list to write about, which make my picks quite random. My goal is to educate myself and the community on all the coins out there.
I have created a template layout for my blog and would like to share the Idea behind it with you, my post is broken up in to the following sections.
- Summary
- Information
- Pros & Cons
- Team
- Rewards
- Community
- Trends
- Markets
- Famous quote
