“Trading Slaughterhouse” omg SO true!!
I was swing trading as well. Great concept…if you’re in a bull market. haha.
I agree with you 100%, having an understanding of the Industry is a far better way to go. Especially in the long run, considering all the possible applications of blockchain. Like your idea of micropayments to small communities, sounds very interesting. Kind of like toll roads??
Like you I’ve more free time thanks to the covid. 
So I figured what better time than now!
Cheers
getting ready for the brave new world that awaits ha ha.
Hi, My name is Beatrice - 55 years old - probably an outlier in the community.
I am French but live in the BAy Area in California. My interest is around investing, understanding and potentially being a speaker for “older folks” like me events.
Willing to try learning to code. No idea where I could apply that though!
Also tired of seeing day trader screens who from the same information reach opposite conclusions…

Hello Hello!
thank you Ivan for this amazing opportunity. universities cannot compare to this line up of courses!
My Name is Theo, logging in from Toronto Canada. I am 27 years old, might be the last to remember dial-up as a kid…I have always been a long time fan and student of computers. I recently completed a program in robotics and automation, currently working full-time at a large manufacturer of automation products. Disney and Space X are just a few of our notable customers!..
I am very exited to sharpen my skills in programming since Robotics is a very general field of study. I am looking for ways that this field is changing IoT and distributed systems in AI and beyond. if anyone is interested in starting a project for fun and practice… please reach out!
Hi Irina, I’m a Quantity Surveyor, working in the Real Estate sector - similarly interested in blockchain uses in our industry 
also based in the UK. Good to see like-minded people here!
Hi guys!

Hello,
My name is Björn. I live in Halmstad, Sweden. I became interested first in monetary history if remember right in the year 2013. It was Hidden Secrets Of Money produced by Mike Maloney and his team that gave me a good explanation how our monetary system worked.
I wanted to dig deeper after a while and therefore listened to many diffrent people during the last cupple of years that had knowledge about the gold and silver markets.
For a cupple of years I also got interested in blockchain technology and found lot of people around the world that spoke about the subject. Was happy when I found a person from my country that had a passion about crypto. Right now I do not have any technical skills, but hopefully I will get that in this academy!?
I trained all my life. Mostly diffrent martial arts, yoga, gym and much more. Also enjoy playing the guitar. Hope that this academy will get me a better understanding for the mekanism behind the crypto univers…
With best regards
Björn P
My name is Phil, I am an old grey haired technology geek from London England. I sell my grey hairs as a consultant helping others to build the skills and knowledge needed to survive and thrive in a complex, competitive world.
I live in the English countryside in Somerset and have four grown up children. I try to keep fit with Kettlebells which spend most of the time staring at me from the corner of my home office. Sometimes I get out and walk in the hills and do a bit of sailing.
I am interested in helping to make serious block-chain projects real, anything that will help lift humanity to a better place. Third world finance is a super interesting domain, those of us who have been lucky enough to have been born into a world of plenty have a debt to pay.

Just a little over a week. I took the time to get started while at home, off of a usual 3 week run. I’ve read several books on Bitcoin and crypto and found that is was sooooo interesting. Then luckily a book called Life after Google. That is where Ivan was mentioned. Good to connect with you my long distance friend.
Sorry, replied in error. 
Hello to all,
I am new on the forum, but I subscribed to Ivan’s academy in beginning of 2018. I am into crypto for a while now and have been trading since 2017. I am excited about this world and community and I am here to learn and maybe also I also get the opportunity to share my vision and thoughts.
I am an engineer working and living in Belgium, I also have an online business since end of 2019. I am passionate about cycling (moutainbike and racebike), Porsche 911 and Vespa scooters :-)) Further I am looking to invest in myself and grow as a person. I see blockchain, crypto and bitcoin and digital transformation in general as the biggest challenge in the years to come and I don’t want to miss out on these exciting times.
Regards from Belgium,
Jean-Paul
