Absolutely fantastic group, good luck to all who apply. One of the new-age groups that I think will really turn into something very special!

Position applying for:

Crypto Currency Reporter

What expertise do you offer for this position?

I have been trading and investing in cryptocurrencies for about 8 months now. Before these months I had been watching the market for a couple months, which basically means I was learning when to buy and when to sell cryptos.

Besides the technical reasons I really like reading about cryptocurrencies daily. I also have worked as a reporter before at a small paper that was being sold at my university (not crypto related).

Why do you want to join?

I want to join Security because I believe I am in possession of the skills that are necessary to fill this position and because I like to read/write about cryptocurrency.

Would you be ready to rewrite the whole article if we think it doesn't meet the standard?

If the person that thinks my article doesn't meet the standard is actually active in the crypto world and provides some reasoning behind his/her decision then it would not be a problem at all.
I had applied to the other thread as well, however, I'm not sure whether I was declined or not so I decided to apply to this thread just to be sure.
