Hello, community. My name is Nat and I work full-time for a private organization as a Sports Clinic Manager. I put on various 
sporting camps for at-risk children. I started in Crypto in late 2017 and took some heavy losses early 2018, however, I didn’t let that stop me from continuing in this unique and interesting space. I’ve learned much over the past few years but have truly enjoyed the recent Defi crazzz. My desire in joining the Academy is to really know and understand more about this fascinating technology and how I can share it with others with depth.

Hi there,
My name is Sarah, I started this journey by watching Ivan on youtube. My interest grew over time as I started to pick up a very basic understanding of the crypto space.
I have an awesome career working with organic farmers and producers, and the USDA. I have been in this field for nearly 15 years. I quickly saw how blockchain technology can expand and improve my industry.
I am taking courses to help me get a basic understanding of “everything”, so I can be well spoken and educated when proposing this technology to my industry.
I really think it will be a slam dunk, just need to prepare.

Oh wow, that’s amazing! I also started from Ivan’s youtube channel. I’m very passionate about organic food and proper nutrition for our bodies. I just learned recently how little farmland is actually organic in my country. I think it’s incredible that someone in your position is learning this technology to apply to that industry!

My name is Matt, I have been interested in blockchain technology since a friend told me about it in October of 2017 . I started by buying some Bitcoin of a coinbase account , I would google what it could do then find of out other coins like Ethereum and Cardano . I would then try and learn of what smart contracts are and what where some difference betweens coins such as Monero and Bitcoin and Ethereum and Cardano. I was very intrigued with what decentralized systems could do or be applied to such as things as tracking systems for goods, voting in democratic nations , paying people in a free er way without the banks , and even more interesting concepts such as what if parts of digital arbitrage could be made as secure as buying some off amazon or but from people to people . Or the ideas of such as non fugible tokens where documents such car titles or birth certificates could be stored digitally and securely . Or the rise to gaming economies like crypto kitties have all been intriguing to me . Really anything that makes some decentralized and secure system that could be applied to society for its benefits be it in the public sector or private sector intrigue me and anything that pushes towards the goal of separation of currency and government I like where a hybrid model exists where we are less reliant on banks and more protected from influences such as Central Banks. I am just here to learn and see what I can do with the knowledge gained. I do enjoy your YouTube channel Ivan and am excited to eventually learn more about flash loans

Hey all,
My name is Eugen and I’m from Romania, Cluj-Napoca, known also as the European Silicon Valley. I have studied Construction engineering (bachelor and master degree) and International affairs (bachelor), worked in Sales, accounting, customer support and IT (data bases), been involved in a lot of gambling related activities (model creating, betting, sports tipping) and currently I try to improve (or better said “gain”) my crypto and programming skills. I see this as the future and with the fast digitization of the world I feel like if you don’t make steps in the right direction you might get kept outside of the growing bubble.
My hobbies are numerous and various, from travelling and hiking, to motorcycle journeys and off-road adventures, from eating to drinking with friends, from reading good and significant books to watching movies with depth, and most of all trying to improve myself as a person on a social and intellectual basis, constantly.
I speak Romanian, English, German and “un peau” of French.
Happy to have made the step of being part of a thrive-willing community, like Ivan on Tech is.
Cheers!

HI I am new to this forum… Can anyone tell me, few months back on one of Ivans You Tube Videos, he spoke of a website where you can Trace A Crypto Currency Address activities, and it would basically report back with a Graph of the Address history. I can’t remember the name of the web-site. Now its not EtherScan this was a much better Tracing Tool. Many Thanks for any Replies.
