Hi everyone! I am a former process engineer that left the field cold turkey, and now attempting to be an entrepreneur, LOL. I find the new developments on the internet exciting (maybe combine that with FOMO), so this year, I started learning as much as I can to be part of this. Ivan is one of the first people who made this world interesting to me, so thank you and I hope to learn more from him and the different members of this community. See you guys around.

Hello my name is dialem Dot. My field of work had nothing to do with Blockchane - I work as a make up artist - was introduced to crypto last year during my summer holidays through my brother . He had gotten interested in crypto a few months earlier and thought it a great opportunity.
A few months past till I could get started in October.
Since then I’ve become more and more interested, also in the technology around and behind it. I started to watch and follow different YouTubers and came across Ivan.
He is easy to understand in his explanations and his enthusiasm is infectious
I’m very impressed by his knowledge and the facilities for leaning that he offers and am looking forward to be learninga great deal over the next few months.

Hi my profile explains the complex character that I am, probably leaving some people even more confused.
I’ve been aware of bitcoin since 2011, but it’s since etherium, EOS NEO & ADA that I’ve begun to take the technology seriously. I have a diploma in Systems analysts and design from 10 years ago. I’ve been a hobbyist miner off and on more so now I have solar power offset on my energy costs. And lastly I’m married to a computer programmer that is doing this course as well.
We are looking forward to doing this course to inspire us to maybe develop a potential project if it has a realistic use case and user experience.

Hi All, I am Zuriko (Zurab Sanikidze)
I work for a fintech that offers blockchain services so I am trying to be at the top of the knowledge chain
I have a Banking & Finance background, studied Business Administration and am living the crypto hype since its early days. Now, as it became professional, I am chasing information as if I knew nothing about crypto.
My goal is to contribute to the democratization of the crypto-ecosystem by participating in and managing crypto projects in the best way possible.

Hello everyone,
my name is Claudio, I live in Italy and am taking the coding course too. I would like to learn as much as possible of the whole decentralization process we are going to experience in our lives and make good use of the knowledge. I’ve been an employee and an employer, and I always enjoy learning new stuff.

Hello Ivan and fellow Blockchain students,
You will find me on Ivan’s Youtube streams as ‘Switch’. I am also enrolled in the Coding course.
My background is Project Management, so taking this course was a no-brainer to expand my current knowledge. Thank you Ivan and Fillip for your dedication to provide us with such great content.
Best of luck to everyone taking the course!

Hello Everyone,
My name is Alex, I have been involved in crypto for about 4 years now. I am here to expand my knowledge in areas besides investing in crypto, hopefully to build some projects geared towards crypto adoption for the masses. I am located in Canada and would like to concentrate my efforts in Latin America for these projects, aside from North America.
I look forward to interacting with all of you and finding synergies that can potentially turn into something positive in helping companies and people adopt crypto.
Cheers,
Alex

Karen, Hi, so nice tom meet you, pleased I am not alone (as an older person) in this exciting and evolving field.
Hi everyone!
Josh here. I’m currently a CPA working in a Big 4 accounting firm, but about to transition into a Venture Capital startup investing purely in Blockchain technology.
I have been obsessively learning about everything blockchain since November 2017.
Although I keep my investing in stocks at the moment, I have become passionate about the potential for blockchain to disrupt so many incumbent businesses and industries (including investing itself. Yay tokenization!).
Super excited to get to know many of you here and learn and grow together.
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye (as @ivan would say).

I suspect there are more of us on here than just the two of us but I am amazed at how few of my friends even realize this is out there. Guess I’ll just have to learn and then help them learn. Have a great day!
