SourceCred Medium Blog

It’s not even on the website or the prototype page lol Second, do we want a Medium blog and/or do we want to channel people directly to Discourse ASAP? My initial impression is that Medium is yet another channel that people really like for some reason, so maybe it makes sense to draft and discuss posts here on the forum, but then publish to Medium as part of an outreach strategy?
