Hi Guys,

Occasionally I come across news breaking stories and either don't have the time to write or the subject matter doesn't fit my area(s) of expertise (mining for example) etc.

In the past I created a small blog entry

e.g."Pantera Bitcoin Fund Ltd Files “Form D” with SEC $96,042,177 Invested So Far" https://medium.com/@inthepixels/pantera-bitcoin-fund-ltd-files-form-d-with-sec-beeab628f143

or a direct post to Reddit

e.g. Rather than amending California Law which "bans" alternative currencies, the Senate proposes to repeal it http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/26zqp6/rather_than_amending_california_law_which_bans

I would like to break these type of stories on Let's Talk Bitcoin.

I am sitting on a news breaking story right now AND WOULD LIKE TO FARM IT OUT.

If you write this story I will be rewarded in the following manner 22% of LTBc distributions

These are the type of stories I typically find http://www.scoop.it/t/briancohen/?tag=briancohen

more specifically these are the articles I have written for LTB http://www.scoop.it/t/briancohen/?tag=LTB

Please send me a message on this forum if you are interested with a link to article(s) you have either wrote for LTB or elsewhere in the cryptocurrency space.

edit: Removed Obsolete Distribution spreadsheet. Updated % from 10% to 22%

  I've only written one article and I still feel a bit unsure about my writing skills. I also don't know what field the news is about and what my knowledge in the field is. If you want me to take a look at it, I'll do that, but I cant give any promises.

  You can get to me either on IRC or by email: [email protected]

  @crimsonroze I'm a bad writer myself. I just happen to be a good researcher so I compensate for my poor writing with interesting topics and research ;)

  shooting you an email now..

  @CrimsonRoze just shoot a response back on the forum if you are interested in covering. If not ---just let the others know that its indeed a "news breaker" worth covering (if you concur)

  Cheers, Brian

  Thanks for these opportunities Brian. I will try to jump on next time, but have been off-site for work these past 2 weeks.
