Believes blockchain technology and DeFi will disrupt many industries in the next ten years and wants to be around to see it.

Experience

While trading and working as a freelancer, Matt saw a video presentation by Cardano founder, Charles Hoskinson, and realised there was more to the world of crypto than Bitcoin and Ethereum. He then took a deep dive into blockchain and hasn’t looked back. From trading volatile markets to testing out yield farming and staking, among other things, he has learned by doing, which has often been the hard way.

An autodidact, Matt reads on a wide range of subjects relating to different blockchain ecosystems as well as digging down into Coin Gecko to find out about any emerging cryptos with real-world utility. A believer in the accumulation of digital assets as a hedge against inflation, he believes that despite the frequent drubbing it gets, the future for crypto remains bright.

Education

Matt graduated from the University of Manchester, with a first in communications, in 1995.
