Title: [ANN] Coinsecure Acquired
Post by: Benson Samuel on July 15, 2014, 05:23:07 AM
The Coinsecure team has been acquired by a Delhi based industrialist, Mohit Kalra who joins as CEO & Founder and sets forward to chart out its next generation offerings for the Bitcoin ecosystem in India.
The terms of the deal remain closed, however most of the terms are to facilitate the growth of Bitcoin across India rather than a monetory dealing. There will be a restructure and relocation of the business centers and we will start with 2 centers in India.
Our head office will be based out of Delhi and house the accounts, legal, management & advisory teams. The development center will be in Bangalore led by Benson Samuel who will be joining as the CTO & Founder. Jincy Samuel will join in as COO & Center head for the Bangalore facility. Mridul Sawhney joins us as the Creative Head. Pankaj Kumar, well known across the bitcointalk forums as escrow.ms joins us from Delhi, to manage operations  and co-ordinate with both teams.
Coinsecure aims to tackle several challenges that have supressed the progress of growth within the Indian ecosystem. We aim to design a wide range of software and hardware that caters to every Bitcoiner’s need.
We will start by launching a block explorer for India in the next few weeks. And many more explosive builds to follow.
We have a young and energetic team of Developers, Animators, Graphics Designers, Brand Managers and Startup Champions.
We also have some of the best Security researchers in the industry working with us on various aspects of the build. Getting the best, helps us optimize the speed without compromising on security. We will also participate actively in bug bounty programmes.
All this technology is backed by a rock solid team of Lawyers, Accountants, Lobbyists and Management veterans.
Our goal is to educate, simplify and enable. With this moto, we will be enabling a wide range of merchants, developers, stakeholders and other parts of the ecosystem who need easy access to Bitcoin in India.
Sign up for updates and stay posted on our launch page at coinsecure.in.

We have also setup a new video for India and will be rolling out different languages shortly.
Its awesome to have an amazing startup team, you'll should see the energy when a bunch of bitcoiners get together everyday to build something awesome :)

A great move by Benson and Team. Thumps up for getting it big by this acquisition.
Creating a sound ecosystem for Bitcoin in India was indeed a necessity.
Hope you guys can remove the false fear and confusions among the Indians.
The Legal and Accounting base of your team will help a lot to gain confidence.
I love to be a part of it.

Thanks everyone.
Educating people about Bitcoin has always been a huge part of what we have done and for now, we continue down that path.

We do have a strong road-map and we will unveil as we can.

There are somethings that we ourselves cannot predict and it would be foolish of us to keep people hanging onto some odd speculation.
