Hi Everyone
Pleased to be here and I am excited! My name is Andy and I retired recently from an airline where I was for my entire career. I started off as an aircraft technician and then got into flight data management where I used commercial software for analysing aircraft incidents and I also did software development myself. I have been interested in BTC since about 2015 but I only heard about blockchain about 3 years ago. I am very excited about learning it!

Hey Academy peeps, Joseph here. All the way from Lebanon.
Been in crypto for 3 years, buying, Hodling and tried trading just not really my thing. My fav projects are ETH, TRX and LTC. Of course, not to mention the mother of all BTC.
Business background mainly looking to dig deeper into the essence of blockchain and crypto. Becoming a blockchain developer would be amazing but most importantly understanding how crypto works is what I’m after.
Goodluck to all!

Hi my name is Rufus and ive been interested in bitcoin since it was first released. I lost some bitcoin in Mtgox and have put money in/ out just messing around with small amounts (traded with emotion)
Stopped all bitcoin activity for years and got back into it pre paypal launch and super interested to learn everything it has to offer (from when i wake up until i sleep). I’d love to trade, invest and create my own smart contracts. Trying out some farming atm and eth staking.
Nice to meet everyone 
Go go go go go. Tea, oat milk, no sugar! Whiskey with ice!

Hello guys! My name is Alexandre, I´m 24 years and I´m from Portugal.
I´m a newly graduate in Computer Science, so i have previous knowledge in programming.
My crypto journey started early this year(2020) when my stepfather introduced me to the blockchain and cryptocurrencies. I felt in love immediately, and at the moment i already have some cryptos on my
portfolio. I just took this course because i think there´s so much job opportunities to reveal on this industries. My 2021 goal is to be a full time blockchain developer.
ps sorry for some english errors, since is not my native language.

Hello, my name is Eckyhade. My real name is Eckert. I am from Pinedale, Wyoming. I hold dual citizenship with Italian and American passports. Wyoming is a great place and I hope you visit some days. (we are also the first place in the USA to allow women to vote and recognize a crypto as a legal bank.)
I am 67 years old. I know…you’re thinking, what is an old man doing here? I’ve been following Mr. Ivan for some time on YouTube. I retired 2 years ago. I got interested in BitCoin many years ago when XBT was $25. But I wasn’t technologically astute enough to buy any. I am/was a chemical engineer in the oil business for 45 years. In my retirement I had cash but didn’t trust the overbought stock market. Sorry, but PE ratios of 800 doesn’t interest me. So, I first purchased coins last summer. I signed up for the course because I wanted to understand in a fundamental way, what I was investing in. I am only beginning my coursework and I can tell you I am fascinated and I have more deep set confidence in crypto than I did before starting the course. For my hobbies I play jazz piano, all kinds of fishing ,icefishing, flyfishing, trolling. Right now I am wintering in my RV in Gig Harbor, Washington state.

Hi!
My name is Victor, I’m from Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. Been following Ivan since 2017 when I started investing in crypto. You rock Ivan!
Back then I was a mega yacht Captain in Caribbean/Miami.
I left that in 2018 to run a biotech company in Miami.
I walked away from that this June to return back to Nova Scotia.
I’m currently living at my beach cottage, renovating it into a house while cycle trading cryptos. Yes, I’m actually living in a contruction zone while doing the construction and trading in it! I would not recommend it haha
It’ll be done soon.
I like most sports, photography, fishing, diving, swimming, and building stuff.
I know NOTHING about programming. Lil nervous about that. But i did just switch from being a yacht captain and engineer to being a biotech coo and we made a lot of money, so why not. I want the edge for trading, i have some ideas (my friend just launched guilded finance), and i need a way to make money while here. I’m literally in the middle of nowhere with dismal prospect of adequate employment.
I guess i could always run ivans yacht once he gets one lol

Hi Ivan and all the folks working on this wonderful site, thank you.
I have IT experience and recent re-educational focus on networking and cybersecurity. Years ago in a land far, far away I obtained a math degree. The degree knowledge is now being refreshed with additional college courses. I am taking the college math courses along with a FinTech track of courses. My focus is to have a stronger understanding of blockchain, cyrpto, and machine learning. I found the Ivan on Tech YouTube videos this week. I learned about farming and projects. The idea of farming and possibly creating a personal project is really exciting and lead me to the academy and signing up for your courses. Now here I am starting a phase of learning about which I feel very passionate and thus am committed to more in-depth learning.
Thanks,
Kevin

Hey my name is Luc DaDrifter, i’ve worked in construction most my life. I’ve recently built a platform that i plan to launch this spring that is like the uber of roofing, it works by identifying every house in a city that needs a new roof and delivers postcard with 8 quotes ion it that the customer can use to create a contract through a customer portal. On the flip side, local contractors complete training and certification online to be able to pull contracts from the platform and complete them. I live and grew up in Canada but am moving to mexico in a few weeks to preserve my freedoms. I’ve sold everything and moved my money into crytpo and am here to learn how to manage it and how to adopt a crytpo to use for my platform launching this spring…i have lots to learn and am very eager and excited.
