We quietly launched a new https://www.coindesk.com last Sunday. This was the culmination of 8 months of work and countless hours. Our engineering team went above and beyond, with the last 5 weeks of the push seeing many of them working 7 days a week and all night long in some cases.

I'm thrilled at how well it has gone. We have released a hotfix daily and still have over 190 tasks and bugs to address, but the site is crazy fast now and our tech and tools are so much better than what we had before.

I'm finally taking a holiday after working 11 days straight, which is nothing compared to what many of our engineers did. It's really nice to take a breather, though, and celebrate what we have done.

Congrats on the hard work and great site experience.
