An article about alt coins, Matt's coingen.io site and I'm quoted talking about how alt coins demonstrate the democratic nature of cryptocurrencies. The journalist (Alex Hern) uses coingen to make his own coin and mines on it a bit.

Move over Dogecoin: the Herncoin is here. But what can making your own currency teach you about the world of bitcoin?

dear god I am so tempted to make one now, but I can't code that well at all so I'd just fuck it up.

Mike "It'll happen eventually" Hearn is back for some self-promotion.
