Joey Krug

Founder

Joey took a leave of absence from Pomona College to focus full time on Augur, a platform for decentralized prediction markets built on Ethereum. He conducted the first Bitcoin transaction via sound as well as the first Bitcoin transaction via iOS-Android Bluetooth LE. As a prelude to Augur, Joey and Jack completed Sidecoin, which allows new cryptocurrency distributions based on "snapshots" of Bitcoin account balances. He works on Augur’s backend smart contracts. �
