I discovered it a few years ago but didn&#8217;t really visit regularly back then. I read the occasional shared post on <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RealCoinGeek\">twitter<\/a> or one that popped into my <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Google_Now\">google now<\/a> feed. If I didn&#8217;t have time right away to read an article that peaked my interest, I visited the site some time later to catch up. However, most of the time, it turns out I had a really hard time finding back that article. On the site there is nowhere a timeline with the latest articles in a chronological order. Also, not all articles get posted on social media, or even if they&#8217;re posted, I might not notice them (I don&#8217;t feel like reading crypto twitter every day &#x1f644;). So although I like the coingeek website, for me it&#8217;s not very practical. But hey, no big deal, I hear you say? you can&#8217;t read everything..?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I agree, until last year &#x1f642; During <a href=\"https:\/\/coingeekconference.com\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/coingeekconference.com\">Coingeek Conference<\/a> days, there are so many exciting announcements, you don&#8217;t want to miss any article! So for the last conference in October 2020 I quickly mashed together a prototype app so I could follow the news. It&#8217;s a very basic app right now and it doesn&#8217;t do much, but since I use it almost every day, I thought someone else might find it already useful too..<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-medium\"><a href=\"https:\/\/mattiesworld.gotdns.org\/weblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/1.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"142\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/mattiesworld.gotdns.org\/weblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/1-142x300.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-987\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mattiesworld.gotdns.org\/weblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/1-142x300.png 142w, https:\/\/mattiesworld.gotdns.org\/weblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/1-485x1024.png 485w, https:\/\/mattiesworld.gotdns.org\/weblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/1.png 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 142px) 100vw, 142px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>app screenshot<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>I do have some ideas to enhance it: favoriting, search (online\/offline), post preview, filter using tags, &#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The next coingeek conference is happening <a href=\"https:\/\/tpow.app\/7654baa5\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/tpow.app\/7654baa5\">next week June 8 to 10 in Zurich, but also completely accessible online<\/a>! So, without further ado, I&#8217;m releasing an open beta of the app as I speak.
