IoTeXLab Website Launch

On February 1st I started the IoTeXLab project: a place where people could learn about IoTeX Blockchain, and find useful tools.

Few days later, I released a Voting, Staking & Rewards tool to help voters estimate possible ROIs from voting for delegates and staking tokens in the IoTeX network

Full Node Testing- Testing full node early releases

On November 30th 2018 IoTeX accomplished a great milestone with the release of the "Open Testnet Phase I": now users could run their own node and give life to the first really decentralized IoTeX Network.

My work also led the team to discover and fix some bugs and, eventually I made a tutorial video where I shared my experience with the community and helped many people getting started wit running the full node.

Italy has a small crypto community yet, despite IoTeX being a completey unknown project, I could quickly grow the community to the size of other blockchain Italian groups like ZCash, NEM and others.
