I from Russia and I live in Volgograd.
Graduated from Volgograd State University with a degree in mathematics programmer in 2013
At the moment I’m doing web development nd I also promote my own Internet projects like http://crypto-laba.ru/
I met with blockchain year ago and at the moment I am investing in crypto-currencies and also I am trying to learn how to program the block to implement my new projects.
Also maybe I will have to leave Russia and in this case it will be very important for me to be a sought after specialist abroad.

Hi, my name is Audrius. I’m from Vilnius, Lithuania. My carrier after university started as a database programmer. Now I’m working with SAP HANA database modeling and BI.
Started with crypto eight months ago. From this point I’m a very active learner. Took several intro courses about blockchain and found Ivan’s youtube channel. He is the best who can explain complicated things the easy way.

I never smashed any likes or gave any hearts, but your vids entertain and inform so shut up and take my money. I’m here to refresh old skills and learn some new ones.
My professional background is a decade of geospatial analysis and visualisation, from emergency incident response, to cartographic production in paper, plaster and digital formats for tourism and environmental mangement. I’ve also co-ordinated training courses for software and concepts relating to the above, so I know what it’s like on the other side of the classroom.
My unprofessional background is 20 years of sporadically using my spare time to learn whatever language looked interesting, to build whatever I was trying to build, or whatever someone wanted to pay me for. Also 20 years of knowing things were not right or fair, with greedy and dishonest power structures using money to keep us caged and controlled. I’ve been looking for ways to find fredom and restore balance without disturbing peace for as long as I can remember. The opportunities are ussually small steps and dont’ appear very often, and this is sphere has the most disruptive positive potential I’ve seen in my lifetime,
Crypto is too powerful for us to let it fall into the hands of those that try to enslave us, so we need to know it better than they do to steer the direction it evolves towards, hardcoding freedom as a core dependancy which noone can sudo apt purge. You’re helping to show freedom fighters how to win the war without violence.
Good onya Ivan. Don’t always agree with your views, but respect the thought, time and effort you put into them. Putting together this course at a cost affordable enough to not exclude working class wage slaves is honorable and confirms your intent is more about changing the world than stacking lamebos.
You’ve come a long way from runescape brother.
