• From Decrypt (28-7-2020):

"Mihai Alisie, a graduate in Cybernetic Economics, was making a living coaching and playing poker in his home country Romania, when he heard about Bitcoin. He got in touch with Buterin in 2011, and they decided to set up Bitcoin Magazine, and then worked together on Egora, a decentralized eBay for Bitcoin.

Alisie helped to establish Ethereum’s Swiss base, incorporating the initial startup, opening a bank account for the fledgling crypto company (not an easy process), and dealing with lawyers and Swiss officials on the legal framework critical for the pre-sale campaign. “In the early days this was just a bunch of people with great ideas and grand ambition, it was not clear that there was going to be a success,” he told Decrypt.

He was vice-president of the Ethereum Foundation until late 2015, when he turned his attention to Akasha, a social framework for Ethereum. Alisie is not nearly as involved with Ethereum as he was before, but his social network experiment is taking shape and may even launch in time to coincide with Ethereum 2.0."
