Data Analytics platform, Flipside Crypto, has announced the addition of Mike Featherstone as their new Chief Technology Officer. In the announcement, the new CTO’s global experience was cited as particularly beneficial for Flipside’s global data insight community.
Flipside Crypto was set up in 2017, and is backed by top tier investors including Galaxy Digital Ventures, True Ventures, Founder Collective, COINBASE Ventures, Digital Currency Group, and Avon Ventures. Their platform provides insights for all those who see that the future of crypto is multi-chain. Flipside powers Community-Enabled Analytics, which uses a bounty program to incentivize on-demand insights based on feedback from the protocol and community participants.
The recent appointment of Mike Featherstone to the position of CTO Mike adds significant value to Flipside, with Featherstone’s extensive experience of leading financial teams and operations on a global level to hugely benefit Flipside’s global operation.
Featherstone’s most recent position was at Pluralsight, a technology workforce development company, where he was Managing Director for APAC, and focused on ANZ, ASEAN, and South Asia. Before that, he launched Pluralsight’s EMEA headquarters in Dublin and was responsible for their EMEA operations. Prior to Pluralsight, Mike spent a decade in Asia and the US in finance, M&A, and operations in financial services and the education sector.
Flipside Crypto’s community of analysts earn tokens through Flipside’s bounty programs which are directly funded by the crypto projects themselves. Proof-of-Stake alternatives like Solana, Terra, and Algorand are faster and cheaper alternatives to Ethereum, which is why Flipside provides data for all three, as well as the ever-popular Ethereum blockchain.
Describing themselves as a “community of thousands of blockchain trailblazers who are committed to maturing the data insights available in the blockchain industry”, Flipside's mantra of 'Learn.Earn.Repeat' empowers crypto communities to share data-driven insights on the projects that they are passionate about.
