What's so special about this platform?
It seems popular in the world of cryptos, I think I've never seen anything else anyway.
Beside the fact, readers are reading on a clean interface without annoying ads, etc. then what? Is it just a matter to get a "Like" button (clap)?
Medium is very neat platform and readers/writers friendly. However, Medium is containing Crypto related articles especially ICOs. We have seen many banned and suspended account due to ICOs related articles.
