Hi,
I would love if it were possible from the next update on to be able to have a live Q&A with the team at Blocks including the founders Alireza and Serge as well the Engineering lead Omer. It would be nice to be able to talk to the team first hand and ask our questions and concerns that we have with every update. It's just better to be able to ask the questions over this live Q and A rather than posting our questions in the comments and then someone from the social team having to ask them to the team and getting back to us and wasting time in the process.
Seyi make it happen please.

Would actually be quite interesting, they would have to answer our questions.

There was a time they were doing scheduled hangouts.
I was lucky that they forgot to come for one of them so I twitted them and got 30 min to talk face to face to Serge
BTW it was awesome

It's possible. It's a matter of getting the founders together.

Serge is in Europe, Ali's in US, Fred's in Taiwan, Omer's in UK so we probably wouldn't get all of them together but 1 or 2 yes.

A Q&A was discussed just before the update so we will eventually do this in February. Serge in particular likes the camera

Thanks for the suggestion.

Yeah as long as we can speak to at least 1 or 2 people every update over on YouTube Live or Facebook Live or Hangouts and have interactive discussion and Q&A then I'd be really happy with that

This would be something that I would want. Hell to talk to the minds behind this smart watch, and to get some of my questions would be great.

Good news, I would love to speak to the team.
Live Q&A would be awesome !! But maybe if we send questions they could record their answers even if they are not together at the same time.

takes away from the point of having a live interaction with the founders and the team. I don't want a pre-scripted show, I'd rather have an insightful and meaningful conversation with the team.

You're right but if they can't be together any time soon it might be the better option.
