working for bitcoin @spiralbtc
This morning, my 7-year-old is off to the dentist for a filling. My eldest is staying home with a nasty cough. Meanwhile, my daughters are dressed as bumble bees and unicorn fairies. And it’s day #1 at @spiralbtc. It might not seem like it, but all these things are the dream.
We hired another one… only this time… he’s Canadian. And, yes, in his own words, all of the stereotypes apply. He’s a poutine-pounding, Hockey-hooter and hollerer, one man infinite politeness machine. Please welcome @matbalez to Spiral. (We still need a new hire graphic.)
My good friend and incredible product leader @matbalez is looking for talented designers to come to this event event.bitcoin.design - reply here or DM him if you're interested. (Obviously designers interested in crypto but even if you're not I'm sure he'd love to talk to you).
Looking forward to talking about bitcoin quantities, ₿ and BIP 177!
