Hi!

I’m just starting my courses here and looking forward to potentially finding a new career path. I’ve changed directions a couple of times out of necessity and opportunity and I think the fascinating world of cryptocurrency may bring it all together. I’ve studied industrial design, biology, sustainability, green business management, biomimicry and some basic accounting and worked in all of them in one way or another.

I first bought crypto in 2017, traded a bit and then left it for awhile, waiting for the chance to understand it better and discover where the opportunities really are. So here I am, going into this with a really open mind to find out where it takes me and also, so I can help my kids prepare for the future too! Based on my knowledge in design and sustainability combined with my interest in crypto I believe technological advances can make the world a better place and more equitable and I’m here to discover how. There’s a lot more to the crypto community beyond the opportunity to make gains and that’s my long-term strategy!

I live in Canada with my two big kids (almost both adults really) and a big dog, love music, art, the outdoors, summer more than winter (thank goodness for skiing!).

Hi! My name is Sarah, 29 yo from Gbg, Sweden, and I am over the moon to be here!

I used to work as a chef but got laid off in coronaland, so I went apeshit into bitcoin last fall with 100% of my final paycheck, lol. So happy I did but wouldn’t recommend.
I found Bitcoin as a pissed off teenager after watching Zeitgeist and feeling like we all are getting ripped off, and when I understood the benefits of blockchain I knew it was the future. Although I didn’t invest until 2017 and getting out bf the bearmarket, I really am in the right place right now and this time I am not getting out.

I do have some prior experience in programming, only the very basics in HTML but I’ve been trying to learn Solidity through YT. However I felt that I need some more guidance, hence I ended up here. The past months I’ve been almost manically doing research, trying to learn everything in record time. My boyfriend is a longtime miner (he’s teaching me too now) and we have grand plans for the future within this. Next week we’ve been comissioned to go to Patagonia to help set up a MASSIVE mining op there, and also to help some huge companies in Argentina invest in crypto. Crypto is opening doors already, I’m blown away and I love it!

Anyways, I have soooo many ideas and I can’t wait to learn it all around here. See ya! :sunny:

Thanks all!

Hi my name is Alain and I live in the capital of Canada. I work as an intuitive and after having sen the potential of where the blockchain technology will be in the next 3-4 years I have decided to learn more about it so that I can help my clients, others and myself benefit more from all that is about to unfold in the next century.

I am not good at programming but i am good at predicting future trends and working with others towards a common goal.

If you feel like connecting let me know and I hope I can bring as much to the community as I believe it will bring to me.

Hi im pan, i live full time on my sailingboat in sweden. I got into bitcoin to be able to finance and work on my project #Trashhuntress (picking up plastic along the shoreline and in the ocean) full time, i would also like to help other people to get in to bitcoin so they also can do what they really want instead of slaving for big cooperations…

I have this idea of making my own altcoin called “kilogram” that will supplement a rewardsystem for picking up plastic in nature and posting results att trashhunter (fb), this system not only rewards but also opens people’s eyestto the crypto market… I’ll update as it comes along…

Have a great day.

Hey everyone! Great to meet you! Excited to be here and part of the larger community as well. Looking forward to everything available to learn from the courses and each other. I’ve been around and involved in crypto since probably 2015 and I am more than ready to take my knowledge and participation in the space to the next level. I have entrepreneurial dreams and ideas brewing and hope to cultivate them over the next few months into something more tangible. Thanks for the opportunity and here’s to making it happen!

Hi Ivan and community members,

My name is Louis, I live in Los Angeles, where I was born and raised. A friend of mine, who is now heavily into trading cryptos, referred me to your YouTube channel, where I’ve now become very interested in trading as well. I appreciate your insight and enthusiasm and am now new to the academy.

I love surfing, playing music, ( I was the original guitarist for the rock band, boy hits car) and also have some web design experience, with basic html programming skills. I’m hoping that will be enough to help me become a competent Solidity programmer… after finishing your curriculum of course!

I would like to build something innovative and meaningful in the crypto space and am looking forward to getting to know some of you along the way!

Hi all! Name’s Dimitris, originally from Greece but now living in Borås, Sweden. I work as a Data Scientist, but the bigger picture is cryptocurrencies and decentralization, so I decided to start my journey with this community. But to be honest, the most important milestone I would like to achieve is matching Ivan’s energy :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:
Cheers!
