I’ve had this blog sitting unfinished for quite some time. Today’s annoucement that Balanced and Coinbase are partnering spurred me to wrap it up.

Yes, Twitter insists it’s not a media company but they’re wrong. Twitter could be the procurer of big data for media creators whether it’s…
I’d stop being an overpaid troll, get out of the hardware business and make Xbox live the new basis of my business.
