Title: 2013-05-01 TechCrunch: Angel Investor Shakil Khan Launches Coindesk Post by: elux on May 01, 2013, 11:03:47 PM Quote Angel Investor, Spotify Fixer Shakil Khan Launches Coindesk, A Bitcoin Resource KIM-MAI CUTLER Shakil Khan, an angel investor and advisor to Spotify, just launched Coindesk, a Bitcoin resource and news site, amid a boatload of hype and VC interest in the crypto-currency. Khan says Coindesk was a project he conceived of about four weeks ago, around when Bitcoin was surging to an all-time high. It’s now trading at around $124.38, or about half as much as it was trading at a few weeks ago. “I was just sitting there and I literally had five e-mails that day from very seasoned entrepreneurs, asking me — what do you know about Bitcoin?” said Khan, who has invested in the space. He was part of a roughly half-million dollar round in Bitpay, which is trying to make it dead simple for merchants to incorporate Bitcoin as a payments method. http://techcrunch.com/2013/05/01/coindesk/ Title: Re: 2013-05-01 TechCrunch: Angel Investor Shakil Khan Launches Coindesk Post by: BTCLuke on May 02, 2013, 07:32:16 AM I like it...
