Cryptocurrency[edit]
In late 2018 a sports book offered 5-7 day payout for wire transfers or 24 hour payout in Bitcoin. Having heard of Bitcoin but skeptical of it's legitimacy, he chose to be paid in Bitcoin and was fascinated that a Currency not controlled by the Government had actual real world value. Soon after, while researching more on Bitcoin, he came across the Ethereum Blockchain and was even more fascinated by Ethereum's early innovation such as Smart Contracts, Tokenization, DAO's and Decentralized Finance. He spent much of the next year investing in tokens and learning about things such as Smart Contracts on Ethereum and watching closely as DeFi and DAO's started to take hold. At the beginning of 2021 he began using the Solana Blockchain and is now mostly involved in the Solana Blockchain DeFi/NFT ecosystem.
