Bytom: Hello, everyone! We are glad to meet here: Vladyslav Skakun, co-founder of CryptoDiffer, a major Telegram & Twitter news channel that is focused on Altcoin news, research & analytics.

Vladyslav: Hello, the Bytom community! It’s a pleasure to be here. Thanks for the invitition.

Bytom: Vladyslav Skakun, thank you so much for joining this AMA, and congratulations on becoming a Bytom global node. I hope through this AMA we can learn more about you and CryptoDiffer, Global Nodes, & Bytom collaborations. Let’s start with the introduction. Could you introduce yourself to our community?

Vladyslav: I’m a co-founder at CryptoDiffer & Managing Partner at ZBS Capital. Moreover, we are now working on ZBS Tech — a development hub, ZBS Labs — accelerator for start-ups. and working on CryptoDiffer NODES that is dedicated to help & educate the community with staking/mining opportunities.

Bytom: We will like to know about Crytodiffer. What is the company all about?

Vladyslav: CryptoDiffer is a major crypto-media, focused on blockchain startups, developments, and updates. The CryptoDiffer’s story has started in 2017 with an ICO boom and is continued nowadays. Every day our team (of up to 20 professionals that are passionate about crypto) provides our followers with the latest updates on prominent projects.

Bytom: Great experience. Could you tell us a bit about how you discovered crypto?

Vladyslav: I got into the crypto space in late 2017 with an ICO boom. The alumni from my university had a VC fund (Midgard Ventures) & he has been seeking for people to expand the operations in crypto/blockchain as an innovative & potential space. That’s how I got into crypto.

And after some time my partners & I have decided to share our knowledge & experience with the community, pick the most accurate news, quality analytics and more.

Bytom: Crypto differ recently launched CryptoDiffer NODES for BTM, would you like to share what prompt this decision?

Vladyslav: We are always looking for a new opportunity in crypto. We had an experience with an LTO node. When we found more about the Bytom node program, we found it interesting & promising. Moreover, we will continue adding more projects to the CryptoDiffer NODE & will definitely make a separate section on our website that will be focused more on staking/mining oportunities.

Bytom: This is really interesting, because for ordinary people who do not have such a team as CryptoDiffer, your attention to the Bytom project is of great importance.

Vladyslav: Yeah, that’s true. It’s important for projects to involve some major players from the industry in their node programs. Cause it shows legitimize & trust.

Bytom: Tell me, do you personally invest in various blockchain projects?

Vladyslav: It’s a bit complicated, cause we have several departments that invest in different project and on different stages. Also, I do investments on my own.

Bytom: Hi Ser, What’s your suggestion on Bytom? How to acquire more people to know Bytom?

Vladyslav: The integrations are a key point here. Cause Bytom is a blockchain, it is needed more adoption & involvement from different projects.

Bytom: Many investors get very upset about not getting rich quickly. What is an acceptable period for you when you invest in a project?

Vladyslav: It always depends on the investment strategy you use. For example I hold some coins for more than 2 years & are not going to sell them in the nearest future) like BTC. BNB, ETH. I’m not a trader, first of all. I’m rather investor here, in the crypto space.

Bytom: Thanks for the answers! What’s your idea about decentralization? Do you participate in any staking or network validation yourself?

Vladyslav: Yes, personally, I’m staking MATIC, BTM, FIS, STAKE, and more tokens. But for me, it’s easy, cause I have other income sources despite just staking. I did a research and decided what coins are suitable for me for the long term & staking is a good way to hold tokens & receive added value.

Bytom: How do you think global nodes can help create a better ecosystem?

Vladyslav: Decentralization is probably a key principle of blockchain technology. And I’ll definitely support the idea that both the internet and many systems must be decentralized but resistant to manipulations/frauds/and other negative factors that can take place.

Bytom: We want to learn more about CryptoDiffer. How would you describe CryptoDiffer now? What’s your vision with CryptoDiffer?

Vladyslav: Nowadays, there are more than 10,000 crypto projects in the space, DeFi, different consensus, staking/farming opportunities, and innovations appear every day. The general vision of the CryptoDiffer media, including all products it will consist of in the future, is to create a user-friendly space where people can explore crypto projects & related opportunities, check the most relevant news & analytics on the market in an easy manner.

Bytom: Yes we want know more about your and Crypto Differ’s plans in the coming future.

Vladyslav: Sure, the major one is our updated website. It’s almost ready, we are going to release Beta next month. moreover, we will expand on more languages. We have an English twitter channel & a Korean one. In the future we will provide more content on more languages.

Bytom: Thanks for your time, Vladyslav Skakun! Great to see how many questions you’ve answered. Thank you to everyone who took part!
