Since our fantastic experience as a finalist in Singularity University & CNBC's 2015 Exponential Finance XCS Challenge, the Augur team has been very busy behind the scenes. In preparing for future releases, I wanted to take this opportunity to highlight some great content we have posted here on our blog or on our YouTube Channel, as well as some press and Interviews that may have flown under the radar to some.
The first thing we want to share is our video explaining how Augur works. This video has been very well received and I feel it's a great way to explain what Augur is all about in a short time, without needing to read any technical information. This is the video we share to anyone who has interest and want to say thanks again to everyone who has helped us spread the word by sharing it!
