My name is Tane, I am 22 and I am studying Banking and Finance at the University of Zürich. I really want to become part of the Swissborg-Team because I think it’s a really cool project, so that’s why I am here learning about Crypto. Another reason is of course that it is absolutely fascinating.

Hi everyone my name is Alec and I’m new to the academy this week. I have a construction company that I’ve just made capable of accepting crypto payments and developed special crypto pricing. We’re hoping to be the first or original “Crypto Contractor” in California. Check us out at A-5Builders.com. I also want to learn crypto trading and turn it into a revenue stream for my company so that we can stretch our profits as far as possible.

Hello Ivan, the Team and the many participants. I appreciate your enthusiasm and commitment to learning and empowering others. It is truly wonderful to see. I’m a computer scientist (we exist), and have spent the majority of my career as a specialist at the Internet infrastructure and deployment layers generally referred to now as DevOps. I have participated in many open source and internet projects. In the crypto space, I was a bitcoin miner going back to 2013 or so, and was assisting a block producer candidate during the EOS launch in 2018. That said, the power of this tech to disrupt and enrich has become so overwhelming that I’ve decided to take it seriously, so here I am. I hope I can keep up!

Hi all! I’m excited to be here. I’m located in Virginia USA. I am currently in the Cyber Security realm leading a technical team of technology integrators and network defenders. I’m new to crypto and looking forward to flexing my brain muscles in this space. I’ve stagnated too long and thought this might be a good refresh of the career. I started with a bit of investing in crypto, following it on Twitter and then found Ivan. At least now I know I am on the right track. Look forward to interacting. Have a great day!

Hi all, I’m Jon. I’ve become crazy obsessed with this Crypto environment and it has brought me here to learn all I can. I’ve been trading for almost a year and know about enough to be dangerous to self! I’m 59, owned and worked a small construction business for 35+ years. I’ve collected and grow orchids seems like forever and build/fly high power rockets as my hobbies. I’ve recently become an empty nester which is allowing me to dive into more endeavors.
Looking forward to getting to know many of you in the coming months

I’m Tracy (male). I am a 61 year old with a 29 year old brain. I currently work full time in the HVAC controls industry programming and troubleshooting controls applications, although I’m sure it is nothing like blockchain. I like it only because I must juggle 5 different aspects of a building’s HVAC system at the same time while looking at 2 layers of programming involved in making it work. Over the years, I have found that I have to keep my brain busy or I get bored. I hope Crypto does it for me as well. With some luck it will save me from all of the driving I do now going to different locations around Florida.
I am also a Golf coach specializing in advanced techniques to help golfers stay present using a program I created in 2005 called Bio-Visual Focus. This program too is a few years ahead of current golf instruction but the results are downright amazing.
I have also worked as a sales coach using skills I learned as an Army Interrogator (Desert Storm) to help people who are cold-calling to make quick connections and have good conversations instead of hangups.
I’m eager to learn more about blockchain (since I am invested in it) and help those who may be interested in my current skills.
This looks like it will be fun!

Hello everyone, pleased to meet you! I was forced to learn about crypto from a friend over the last couple of months and now I have become obsessed. I am that person whom has been going to college for over twenty years due to bumps in the road and still do not know what I want to be when I grow up. Always trying to learn something new and really enjoy technology so I thought this would be great. Thank you for the opportunity.
