I am a long-time Bitcoin user and enthusiast—I mined my first Bitcoins when they were worth just $4.00 USD. The blockchain technology in Bitcoin has always fascinated me and like everybody else I immediately saw its potential for solving persistent problems in a variety of other industries. Working on blockchain technology has been on my to-do list for years. I was attracted to the Hyperledger project because of its solid community leadership and the integrity of The Linux Foundation. When I was given the opportunity to work on all-things-security and all-things-blockchain at The Linux Foundation, I could not refuse.
