Hi, I am Kuba. I am from Poland but living in the UK. I run a business in the construction industry, but a bit tired of this. Did a few small investments in crypto in recent years, some of them were good indeed.
Hoping to gain knowledge to go to full time in crypto world.
Hi Ivan & All Community members 
I’m very happy to be here at the start of my journey into learning about blockchain development.
I’m fully absorbed in the world of blockchain & crypto and have been since i started mining BTC in 2017 whilst working full time elsewhere to pay the bills…since then i’ve gone down the rabbit hole & absorbed as much info as possible and I’ve learnt lots about crypto , blockchain & the changing landscape of finance. Defi massively excites me & i’m very grateful to this academy as my next big plan is to create a career beyond speculation and i’m stepping outside my comfort zone (which is always good) and i’m excited to learn & understand the world & language of a blockchain developer.
Thanks for having me lets GO!
Hello to you all!
My name is jimmy, and I’m ready to leave my 9-5 and work in crypto… I have watched Ivan for a long time, but I have doubted myself when learning programming or anything in the actual industry. I’m here to give it my best shot!

Hello, my name is Lianne and I am from the UK currently living in London.
My goal is to reskill and to gain as much knowledge as I can with the hopes of finding employment within the crypo space in the future.
I dont have any previous knowledge or experience with blockchain or programming so I have a lot to learn.
Really excited to get started and to be apart of the academy.
Best wishes to everyone 
Hello everyone! Happy to be a part of this community and finally taking the step towards a future we all know is inevitable.
I have been an investor in cryptocurrencies for some time now and realizing how big this technology is becoming I decided to take my existing career and adapt it to gain a competitive edge in the marketplace.
my goal is not to become a full-time developer as I currently specialize in Sales/Marketing & Communications and wish to work for a forward-thinking company adopting blockchain technology.
Although I must admit that I do plan on learning some basic coding skills to be able to speak the same language when collaborating internally amongst my colleagues.
Representing Canada, I look forward to connecting with all of you from around the world with similar interests or perhaps career paths! I am always open to feedback and feel free to reach out at any time as it will be my pleasure to help in any way I can!
Best of luck to you all
Hi All. I work for a Condo Developer in Toronto, heading up their Design Services department. I have always been interested in new tech and I am captivated by anything and everything blockchain, crypto-currency, & Defi. I hope the skills I learn here will allow me to develop and implement solutions that solve some of the many challenges faced within the Construction/Project Management industry.

How cool that you’re an ASL interpreter! I began learning too many years ago to admit. I’m not able to practice much, but I sign songs. I hope that you find your path with the academy!

Hi! My name is Hunter. I am here to dive deeper into blockchain technology as I have been learning through youtube for a few years about cryptocurrency. I have no experience in programming and currently have no path or career. I am seeking direction and guidance to fully immerse myself into one of the only industries I believe in. I’m very excited about this opportunity as well as nervous but ready to make the very best of it.
Hello! I’m David, and I came to the academy because it’s high-time I learn how to program smart contracts, among other things. I’ve been getting into the crypto space for about 6 months, have tons of ideas, and am currently unemployed and upskilling as much as I can. My best friend has been following Ivan and using the academy for about a year now, and he’s already made 7 figures in crypto because of it.
This is one of the most exciting spaces to be a part of. It’s the greatest financial opportunity of our lifetime, and it is rare for a technology to come along that is capable of disrupting so many established paradigms. I can’t wait to get into it!

Hello everyone- My name is Ryan- I am blue collar worker that works with Industrial control systems for a major earth mining company - I am keen to learn more about Blockchain Development and use this to develop a future career.
Even though my current job/career so far has been very well paid and enjoyable I came across the technology aspects and the growth of blockchain industry just in recent months and it has created a-lot of interest and a new fire to learn ( maybe becoming obsessed) . So I have joined Ivan’s school to try obtain my new goal which is to become proficient in the developing space and be in the mix of the blockchain industry as I truly believe in this upcoming industry will be a industry to grow with.

Hello everyone

Quite an outdoorsy person, workout almost everyday and I really like dogs (I die when I see one).
Anyways, happy studying everyone and all the best <3
