Well hello Steemers, Steamians... I wanted to give a quick intro to my company, 10XTS. Check our trailer video above. We're based in the Cincinnati area. (Go #StartupCincy!)
Speaking of which, that was a fun project in After Effects. You know what makes a GPU burn as hot as mining? Rendering vector motion graphics. Four hours for 47 seconds of video.
Now to be clear, I'm not pitching anyone anything here, just tooting the horn of my awesome team - because, quite frankly, the team is everything.
I first became interested in Bitcoin in about 2010. Yes, one of those people who should have bought more, shouldn't have sold it when I did.
Meh.
Then I became interested in what Vitalik and the Ethereum gang were bantering about in the forums. That seemed to be useful to me, a lifelong software developer. I became pretty intrigued and bought in early.
Like a damn fool, again I didn't buy enough and figured that after the DAO fork and all the noise, I'd get out when it hit a few bucks.
Double meh.
But it sent me on the trajectory of building a blockchain solutions company. I spent a couple of years testing my hypothesis in the market and building the team.
Since I worked in startups as the director of an accelerator, the idea of a blockchain venture studio and accelerator was interesting to me. But I didn't want to rush into the market with just some hastily sourced team. I wanted seasoned, experienced, hitters. That takes time to identify and recruit.
We launched early this year and have gained phenomenal traction and visibility. I guess the right message with the right market timing is still key to startup success.
We are passionate in the pursuit to solve problems in humanity through the use of technology and data. The coming tidal wave of social evolution will be the result of how we choose to leverage innovation as we re-organize and manage the world around us.
Our vision is one where decentralization, security, and trusted exchange brings the highest degree of efficiency, transparency, and governance. The 10XTS ecosystem helps foster, coordinate, and launch projects and new ventures by aligning needs, resources, capital, and leadership.
10XTS combines advanced enterprise architecture, software development, data science, and artificial intelligence with product management, capital, and marketing – to launch new platforms, business models and products. We deliver blockchain solutions with three key product and service strategies: xtsCore, xtsConnect, and xtsLaunch.
We've got a pipeline of projects we're launching in 2018. We've got great backing and will also be doing a series of project-specific token sales.
At our ages and experience levels in our careers, we're pretty technology agnostic. The right tool for the right job is what I always preach.
That being said, we're very partial to the Bitshares platform, graphene, DPoS and the DEX. I'll buy Dan a beer sometime.
In fact, we'll start doing more to promote Bitshares as a whole when we get through some other product launch efforts (only so many marketing resources).
So that's pretty much it. Hit me up if we can help, or just to say howdy!
