Robert Wiecko is getting back into playing electric guitar.
Despite this initial fascination with blockchain technology, Wiecko felt he was not up to the task of exploring it initially, due to a multi-year bout with ulcerative colitis, an inflammatory bowel syndrome.
Wiecko draws parallels between delving into alternative medicine and exploring blockchain technology.
Wiecko shifted the focus of his work toward less technical elements, working more closely with people as a project manager.
Working in the traditional finance industry for UBS by day and then fighting the system in his crypto work during evenings and weekends, Wiecko felt a sense of schizophrenia.
That's why Wiecko is involved with DASH, he explains.
A major innovation of DASH is the concept of master nodes, Wiecko explains.
Now the COO of DASH Core Group, Wiecko works less directly with projects, but maintains a substantial list of responsibilities including managing procedures, QA and infrastructure, communicating with teams, complying with regulatory requirements, and even managing a service desk.
DASH successfully provided a fast and cheap alternative for users to transact value in the hyper-inflated economy, Wiecko says.
The concept of freedom becoming widely available to people everywhere really gets Wiecko excited, as he recalls his youth living under an oppressive regime.
