Hello All,
Excited to start this new venture! Had a great professional career, ready to learn about this eco system and perhaps apply financial/accounting/tax knowledge in another dimension to assist businesses and help others. Thank you Ivan for your time, effort, and commitment to cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology!
Hey Guys,
My Name is Thanh, i have a background as a mechanical engineer and i always had passion towards technology and knowledge. i heard about blockchains for such a long time but i never really invested time into it till now. after watching the webinar by Ivan yesterday i thought i really wanna know more about it and be part of this booming technology and i hope it will be worth my time and effort.
I’m actually from Vietnam but i have been living in different countries since i was young as my family had to travel for business, so i lived in Vietnam then in Hungary then Egypt and currently I’m in Vietnam. as a result of living in those countries I’m fluent in Arabic, English and Vietnamese.
I’m looking forward to get to know each and everyone of you in this amazing community 
Hello, I am Alex and I believe that cryptocurrencies are setting us free! Hope we can learn a lot together! #RespectThePump
Hey guys, my name is Alex. I’m from Las Vegas and I was just at Cal Poly SLO studying Economics and trying to find my passion. Sadly, because of Covid, I had to drop out and start working. I have stumbled into the solar industry and I have become fully independent from my family. I just truly delved into the world of crypto a couple weeks ago and I think it is exactly what I’m looking to pursue in my life. I always wanted to find a decentralized way to give power back to the people and expand wealth and this is the way to do that. I just want to say thank you, I put a lot of my money into this and I’m going to work my ass off! Excited to kill it, L&R

Hello all,
my name is Dominik,
I’m 36 Years old and today I enrolled to the Academy.
I’m an employed engineer, working in the Watch industry on automation of all kind of production processes. I actually like my job a lot, but I want to learn about programming. Since I’m following
GMC since quite while and love the vibes, I decided to give the Academy a go to see weather I can catch up with my goals 
I wanted to do this earlier but right now I managed to block myself out some regular time for this.
Looking forward to engage with you all.
Hello Ladies and Gents,

Thanks

Hello Ivan and fellow blockchain enthusiast. I am an Albertan. I am a retired engineer who ran around the world designing and building oil and gas processing facilities, pipelines, gathering systems, etc. Man, it was a lot of fun! I sold my company several years ago. I married my mother’s best friend’s daughter, Pat, and we currently live on a small farm in the Durbanville Wine Route just outside of Cape Town. We breed and race horses. https://www.durbanvillewine.co.za/
The blockchain space is the most fascinating concept that I have only discovered a few months ago…why did it take me so long???
I have two objectives:
Hi Ivan and everyone,

Hi Ivan and the community!
I’m Joel and I am an operations manager from Ireland. I got into trading a few months ago and the more research I’ve done on blockchain technology the more passionate I’ve become about the industry. It has really lit a fire inside of me and I’m desperate to learn as much as I can.
I am really looking forward to learning from the academy and from the community.
Hello everybody!
I’m João, from Portugal, recently I finished university with a bachelor degree in economics. The reason i joined was because every morning I listen to Ivan and yesterday I thought it was a good idea to start a deeper learning in the crypto world, with a hope one day (this year 
) to get a job. It’s my believe that we are watching a revolution in the financial world, and I want to be part of that change.
My interests are photography, stock market and crypto, as everyone here, I think!
Good luck to you all in your studies!
Hi Acex13, I just read a book called FINDING GOBI by an Ultra runner Dion Leonard. A great read. A gruelling sport. Good on yah!
I am having trouble funding my Binance account as my cell is South Africa while my principle residence is Calgary. I tried PAYTRIE with no luck. Any suggestions?
Hi, I am Petrus and have been looking at Crypto since 2017, I am from South Africa but living in the UK for the past 18 years. I want to see if I can learn more about Crypto as this is the future and this is only the start. Looking forward to learn more about blockchain, programming C++ and the de-fi space. Wish you all the best and hope you make millions in this space.
Hi All,
My name is Manoj and I am from Toronto, Canada. I am working as a Front End Developer in one of the major financial institutions. I have been following the space for past couple of years and now want to get hands on in the field and potentially develop a start up in this space. I am looking forward to learning from this community and I hope to add value here.
Thank you.
Hi everyone,
My name is Lee, I have been interested in cryptocurrencies since around 2013 although I didn’t take the step of investing until 2016 whereby I experienced the huge potential of crypto and ultimately how valuable knowledge in the space is when I learnt an important lesson in 2018 lol.
I made some profits, I lost some profits…
I am and have been quite passionate about crypto for a few years now and given the current situation and my current business (motortrade) suffering during this great reset, I have decided to do what I should have done in my earlier years (fast approaching 46) and move into a space where my passion really is.
Other than my experience so far with investing in crypto, I have very little knowledge within this fast paced space and am looking forward to learning as much as I can in order to better my position in the future.
Primarily I am interested in progressing potentially into a full time position or maybe a business where I can offer some sort of service but also interested in learning as much as I can about the investment and trading side.
Greetings all,
My name is Jeremy from New Hampshire, USA and I am completely new to the crypto/blockchain world. I started investing in crypto during this current 2020/21 bull run, but outside of that I am a total newb.
After watching Ivan’s webinar on Jan. 20th, I am very interested in all of the “low hanging fruit” there is in this space. I believe this is the future of finance and tech in general, and can’t wait to get started in this world!
I’m a passionate in everything new digital innovation that can make this world a better place and make people’s life easier and more enjoyable! I have a passion in tech since I was little and I developed it by graduating as coder at high school. After that I realized that also the business/financial aspects were key to properly develop my career and I then graduated as a Management Engineer but always developing my passion in coding and DB management. I then started my career as an IT Analyst where I helped a company to digitalize the production tracking in the plants. After that I worked for big multinational companies as IT Risk and Data Analytics expert. Now it seems that with blockchain all my personal development in fintech is making a lot of sense!!! I’m super excited about getting to understand deeply the blockchain and unleash all the potential it has!!!
I’m already amazed by the 3rd lesson of the Bitcoin101 course where @ivan confirmed what as an audit expert I was already thinking: “Big 4 Auditing services will be disrupted by blockchain because there will be no more the need for an external company to certify company’s financial reporting”. This is an example of the magnitude of the disruptive power of blockchain!!! It is just amazing!!!
Happy to be part of this incredible community! Let’s work together to make this world a better place!!!
