OkCupid founders raise $10.8M to make cryptography accessible to mere mortals

Two founders of the dating site OKCupid have raised $10.8 million for their new venture, Keybase, a cryptography “hobby project” that took on a life of its own.

“We’ve gotten more ambitious,” wrote OKCupid founders Max Krohn and Chris Coyne in a blog post Wednesday. “We have a new goal: to bring public key crypto to everyone in the world, even people who don't understand it.”
