Hello Steemit!

Lets start off this introduction by stating how much I dislike starting introductions

My given name is Scott though I am better know by my handle xploited. I live in Nova Scotia, Canada and I am 36. I have a background in system administration and software development though its been a long time since i did it for a pay cheque though I still do it for a living. I've been involved in cryptocurrency for nearly 5 years... no, let me reword. I've been living cryptocurrency for nearly 5 years now... but before that a quick rundown of me.

I snowboard.. this will be my 20th season on the hills!

Oh, and did i mention im a cryptocurrency developer? I mean, I'm nothing special in the world of crypto devs but im proud of what I've done. I'm the lead developer / co creator of CLAM, a proof of stake coin and the first coin that used a blockchain snapshot for distrubution.

I was the lead developer of digibyte until just after the switch over to multialgo pow. Digibyte was my first jaunt into the crypto world. Got my feet wet before I was ready to go start something on my own. It was also when I met CLAM's co-creator while working with Digibyte. She's an idea person whereas im an implementer so it was a crypto match made in heaven.

I'm working on a few project right now mostly centered around the lightning network which ive become very interested in as of late. I personally think the lightning network is going to take off but selfishily I really just want have atomic coin swaps from chain to chain for a project ive had in mind forever.

Honestly, not entirely sure why I joined steemit. Figured it couldn't hurt to get out there. I happen to be fairly knowledgeable in the field of cryptocurrency which i would think is a hot topic around here.. might as well post some of my work for all to see!

Also doesn't hurt we get steem for posting..... am i right or am i right!!!!

Thanks for reading, stay tuned (or don't) for more!

See you in the trollboxes!
