A short post to introduce ourselves and to explain what we will be writing about on Steemit.
Some will know us as the creators iA Writer, a program for disturbance free writing available on iOS, OSX and Android. We also created the Web Trend Map and the Twitter map Cosmic 140, but that was quite some time ago. When we are not working on our own ventures, we design digital products for our clients. For Red Bull for example, for Monotype or for the Guardian. We have done banks, shoes, watches, newspapers, social networks, furniture, magazines and some more newspapers. You can learn more about us, our clients and our products on our website.
Some of us have been fascinated with cryptocurrencies since we first GPU mined a few bitcoins back in 2010. Over all those years, we got many a strange look when we told the tales of the crypto world to the uninitiated. To a point, where we thought that it's maybe better to stay quiet most of the time and not be the wacko with the computer money. The happier we are now to see crypto starting to enter the mainstream, thanks to easy to understand platforms like Steemit. Some crypto subjects are still a bit too specific for our blog, simply because they need a lot of explaining. So we'll be posting some of them here from time to time. Starting with an in-depth series on Altcoin fundamentals.
