Hello everyone! My name is Mahasaina and I live in Madagascar. I have a passion for personal finance and everything related to fintech and DeFi. I joined the academy to learn more about blockchain technology with the goal of becoming a blockchain developer so that I can get a job in an industry that really excites me and which has lots of growth potential. I look forward to interacting with you all!

Hello, my name is Robert. I am very excited to be here!! I started my crypto journey almost by accident in late 2016…A friend told me he was mining bitcoin and making a good return… I got in there and started to see a whole new world open up… from there it was learning to trade… a couple months ago I began to look for how I could obtain a degree in programming… I found Ivan, or should I say he found me… lol… but either way… what an awesome opportunity!! I live in central California, (Awesome weather) and am a little older than most people looking to learn crypto and developing…

Hi! My name is Joseph Darling, and I’m 34 years old. I’ve been running my own businesses since I quit my fulltime job in 2016. I’m married with 3 kids, and actually work as a business/entrepreneur/leadership and relationship coach on the Men of High Value channel on YouTube (3k subs).
I took the academy, because I’m a fired up Libertarian who knows that Blockchain and Bitcoin is our shot to separate money and state forever. And what has happened in this industry is only the beginning - and I want to be part of this exciting journey. I also plan to start multiple dapps and crypto projects, and don’t want to have to pay YOU guys 250k per year!!! I’ll leave that to everyone else who didn’t put in the effort to take these courses

Hi everyone!
My name is Krystell and I am an entrepreneur from Minnesota (USA). I immigrated as a child from Mexico during our major devaluation in the early 1990s and I believe in starting from nothing. I have a degree in marketing/international business and entrepreneurial studies and 13 years of experience in marketing financial services to Latinos in the USA and entrepreneurs of all sorts. I never thought I would find something more interesting to do with my life but the world of DeFi has me reimagining my and my children’s futures. Best of luck to everyone!

I’ve been watching Ivan since the Yummy Yummy Sweet Yams video everyday and he is the only guy saying I should go full time crypto and he’s right. I’m definitely trying to do some HODLing and trading as I work my way through his courses and will try to find or create a project when I’m ready! Maybe I can think of a food name for my token that nobody else has yet lol
Hit me up if you live in Phoenix, Arizona, USA area!

Hey @Ishoboy. It’s good to know that more and more Filipinos are into crypto. What do you mean by “Ivan’s daily show”? Is that the youtube channel? I usually travel a lot in the Visayas area. But I’m particularly from Cebu. How about you?

Hi Everyone!
My name is Seyi (“Shay”), and I’m an Engineer in the Energy industry based in Houston, TX USA. I got involved in the crypto space early this year (2020) by investing in bitcoin and a few other crypto currencies because I believe as many do, that these are great hedges against inflation AND are set to shoot up in value as main stream adoption progresses. I have learned a lot from crypto show’s like Ivan’s and a few others on youtube. I’m excited to dive in and learn all I can about the tech and industry at large, and perhaps write my own dapps in the near future. The crypto community has impressed me so far with it’s dedication to the ethos of decentralization, and I’m looking forward to learning and contributing as much as I can. Let’s go!

Hello, my name is Liliya. I m following Ivan YouTube channel since July and recently I joined the academy. I have no technical backround but the cources on academy are very easy to follow and I m learning a lot. It s time consuming that is difficult for me because of my regular job. But I m doing my best to go fulltime on crypto in the future. Because I believe the crypto will be the future.
