Hi everyone,
My name is Em and I'm a corporate and crisis PR guy who up until recently was purposefully ignoring this cryptocurrency (and blockchain) subject.
I guess you can blame it on the many years I've spent consulting to major (traditional) financial institutions like Old Mutual, BNP and others. The standard response when clients asked if they should care about this "Bitcoin stuff" was, "It's just a bunch of internet noise - don't worry about it"
However in the past few weeks through both Melanie Swan and Toni Lane Casserly I've found myself really interested not so much in crytocurrency - but the blockchain.
I'll admit that at this moment I am an absolute blockchain noob - but I'm exploring Steemit and many other practical applications of blockchain technology to understand it better and who knows...maybe I'll end up using my PR dark arts to help along the course - since it SEEMS like a noble one. hahaha.
I'm also fun loving and generally easy going - hoping to meet cool interesting people. Don't be offended by anything I say though...I'm just a PR person after all.
