Open letter to the miners’ community by Claude Lecomte, MinerGate founder. by MinerGate Mining Pool

MinerGate announces the #iamaminer flashmob on Twitter. Win $1,000 and $500 prizes by writing the most creative tweets!

On top of it – anyone who participates in #iamaminer flashmob will get exclusive bonuses from MinerGate.

Here is an open letter from MinerGate CEO Claude Lecomte to the mining community:

This week we summarized the work on the contest ‘I am a miner’. We have read every email you sent us, every story you shared. You kept telling us your life stories even after we had announced the closing of the contest. Now we are asking you: please, don’t stop!

Your stories are very different, but there is one feature that unites them all. They are very personal and sincere. That’s what we value most.

And that’s what made us think: miners are at the basis of the blockchain ecosystem and are the early adopters and service providers for the developers to build upon. Neither of the Bitcoin’s, Etherium’s or Monero’s infrastructure would exist without the transaction suppliers of the industry. It’s time for you to step into the spotlight.

Mining stories can take impressively unconventional forms – think of the hydroelectric power stations in China and thermal power plants in Iceland built for mining purposes on the one hand, and fans mining on their cellphones on the other. The outcome is similar: these efforts make the decentralized system functional.

We are expecting a lot of crazy tweets from all across the globe, from Brazil to Singapore. Let’s shed the light on why it’s awesome to be a miner with #iamaminer flashmob!

Next week we start the flashmob that will let the world see – we are the miners and there is plenty of us. Stay tuned. New updates are already coming.

Claude Lecomte, CEO, and founder of MinerGate
