I bought a Bitcoin for him, half-jokingly, for is “College Fund” about 4 years ago. Its simply amazing how much it has grown it that time. I want to start him on coding early for sure!

Wow, major kudos for already quitting your day job to focus solely on blockchain. I want to get there eventually too. I am a beginner developer as well, so I understand exactly what you are saying.

Hi Brian,
Thanks for sharing. Sustainability and crypto will absolutely marry if not already, so you are betting on the right horses!
I have a friend who invented a really smart system for watering plants (grapes, tomatoes, lawns, etc.) saving enormous amounts of water and increasing growth by 40-50%. There is so much to do in both areas.

Hi all,
In 2015 a techy friend introduced my to Bitcoin and other alts as an investment opportunity. I jumped aboard without understanding a bit, and spent quite some time learning how to trade - just getting money into the exchanges was a struggle. I gained some, I lost some, and I missed to sell before the big crash.
Over time I have started to see the benefit it would give in short-cutting the financial system, and “free the people” from the banksters. That was a completely new angle which gave so much more meaning to the phenomena - block-chain.
Now I decided to change my career and quit my job. I have an itch to learn more about block-chain and its possibilities. It´s getting into some kind of obsession, which might be bad or very good. 
Anyway, I would like to work in this area and cannot wait to fill my brain with everything available here.
I have been in the tech industry my whole career and have founded 4 start-ups, the latest one in the cryptography area, but not related to block-chain - yet. Perhaps I can give advise on start-ups, perhaps on IoT business.
And if my dreams come true, I will be working with block-chain within 3 months. 
Really looking forward to this journey and to be part of this community,
Andy

Hello everyone! My name is Jalen and I recently worked in Tech Sales. As a 24 yr old crypto investing has allowed me to take more risk and embark energy towards a growing industry full of like minded individuals.
I have no previous coding experience and I only know crypto through investing. I’m a self development junky that sees the value in learning these highly demanded skills. I have a passion for solving problems in the community and plan to start businesses in this space.
I am from Chicago (United States), so usually when I mention the “Bulls” or “Bears” I am talking about my favorite sports teams haha. I am a former 2x all region college baseball player that loves working out.
I am looking forward to getting to know everyone along this journey!
Hi all! I am Perttu.
Eventhough I have been over half of my life worked with computers and wrote my first lines of code bit over 30 years ago and even I have been entrepreneur in IT-business for last 15 years, I got accidentally dragged into cryptos world. I have established several companies in the past , even one payment gateway so fintech it self is something I have previous experience which led me to into discussion with one local cryptostartup and eventhough I didn’t join there, it helped me to create an idea and now I am doing kind of crash course of all the blockchain related stuff so I could actually implement it.
It’s nice to be part of the community, and I am curious to see what the community can offer and if there is something I can contribute for the community.
Let’s be open for the opportunities world has to offer!
Hi Fellow learners, I am Ravi and very excited to join this community. I have spent my life in investment bank and now embarking on a new Fintech Journey in Crypto space.
Looking forward to sharing ideas and learning from you

Hello. I am Bob The Builder (Not my real name obviously).
I previously have been a front end developer for a few crypto projects and now want to dive into full stack (well at least doing the contract side stuff as well.)
I joined about a week ago and have so far finished solidity 101 and almost through 201 already. I havent posted solutions for 101 or 201 yet but will start to as I have only just begun starting to have some problems I can’t solve on my own.
Look forward to becoming part of the community and maybe getting some work in the field again soon.
