"A bit of seriousness does not hurt. I never recommend "employer" My, how even the small, newly built company Tembusu, as a consultant of our government. Anyone who visited my website will find several articles, radio interviews, and video from my speeches on electronic payment systems. This research field with which I deal (in collaboration with universities and technology companies abroad), before fall in the arena of politics.
This company got in touch with me in 2013 asking my advice as the founders of (young, talented technologists room) read (randomly as I was told) on my articles were substantially. Because particularly interested in this field, as it will shape the future of international trade, drafted and promoted, from the US, where I worked, a thorough advisory report. In this proposers and outlined a comprehensive framework of electronic payment systems - which indeed I called TRUST.
Delivery of that report, in December 2014, offered no advice nor I had with them no professional cooperation. As for the mention of my name as their counselor so far, I guess that reflects the value they give to me that contribution. This happens with other organizations (eg the magazine Science & Society, New York) that keep my name on the list of consultants or honorary members of their Boards. As for the malignant suspicion that suggested intake of Tembusu by the government, please withdrawn directly from the syntax of "Proto Thema". "
I think is the first time that bitcoin will get so much attention in Greece and this front page is a good opportunity for Greeks to search and learn about bitcoin. From the other hand the newspapper Πρωτo Θέμα is a garbage for news and reliability and i dont think even understand what they write there
