Introducing Jordan
CoinBurp had an amazing October here in the new office at Devonshire Square, all starting with the arrival of QA Automation Engineer, and sixth member of the team; Jordan Vidal. I decided to give Jordan a warm welcome by hammering him at table tennis (over and over, AND OVER again). Considering I hadn’t won a single match before he joined, it might be best that Jordan stick to testing (or that I learn how to play table tennis…). Anyway, when he’s not losing at recreational sports, he’s watching Arsenal lose. You can also be sure to catch Jordan at any given house event.
All fun and games?
It’s easy in this weather for offices to become dull places to work. So, to brighten up the workspace, a TV has been installed. The Bitcoin price is now displayed around the clock (though the team are still unsure whether this is a good idea). October also meant the WeWork Creator Awards. Pete (CEO), Tom (UX Lead) and Jordan (QA) got wind there was a free bar and made it over to Printworks London before you could say “does CoinBurp actually do any work?”. The event was hosted by Ashton Kutcher and featured live performances from Diplo amongst others.
Product development
In between gazing at the price of Bitcoin, some progress has been made. Tom has finished the high-fidelity designs for the wallet page, as well as styling the in-house blog. And on the development side, Damian has begun creating the core live trading platform. The first order for CoinBurp merch has been placed (which includes t-shirts, hoodies, and business cards), so jump on the CoinBurp socials to make sure you catch the first drop!
That’s it for another CoinBurp monthly. Want to know more CoinBurp? Check out the socials @CoinBurp on Instagram, Twitter and Snapchat. Hope to see you soon!
