Hey everyone, 

My name is Dave Remy, I live in the Boston area, and am currently CTO of Linedata's Asset Management division.  I have a long history in the tech industry from cofounder/early employee/CTO of multiple startups (Sharebuilder, GeoTrust, UBoost), working at tech companies (IBM, BEA, Microsoft), and the last few years as CTO at Linedata, a global financial services software company headquartered in Paris.

I am new to steemit, I came across it as I was doing research on cryptocurrencies.  I have been putting my cryptocurrency notes in a mindmap.  Feel free to check it out: https://atlas.mindmup.com/daveremy/blockchain_and_crypto_related_tech/index.html.  I am super interested in crypto both personally and professionally.   When I was CTO at GeoTrust, which became the 2nd largest certificate authority before being acquired by Verisign, I was fairly involved in the PKI space but became a bit cynical about it's potential for individuals.  It is amazing to see the progress that is being made fueled by cryptocurrencies.  A lot of the issues I saw then still exist, especially around private key management, but it is amazing the energy that is being put into it.  The use cases are so strong I really do believe this represents a new generation or layer of the Internet which will have huge impact on all of us.

From a personal perspective, I am a mostly vegan, ex-ironman athlete (long ago) that just got a total knee replacement and trying to remember what it was like to move.  Married with two grown children in Brooklyn and San Franscisco.

Steemit looks very cool, looking forward to contributing and learning from it.

Thanks!!!!
