One year ago, Ian Demartino and I introduced MiningPool with the intention of building a site that focused on journalistic integrity in the Bitcoin/ blockchain space. Over the last 12 months the site has gone from strength to strength and 400+ posts later we have cemented ourselves as a reputable source of information. We’ve covered exclusives, attended conferences and even stopped a few scammers in their tracks! I am immensely proud of the site and everyone who contributes to it and to celebrate our first anniversary we are running a competition. 10 lucky winners will win lucky bags containing a random assortment of prizes from the below: Signed copies of Ian’s latest book, “The Bitcoin Guidebook: How to Obtain, Invest, and Spend the World’s Initial Decentralized Cryptocurrency“ Recent MiningPool T-Shirts Free Bitcoin!
