The Blockchain Awakening

Nangisai's fascination with blockchain began in 2009, coinciding with his university graduation and the aftermath of the 2008 Global Financial Crisis. As a fresh graduate in banking during a time of economic turmoil, he was drawn to the concept of a more equitable and transparent financial system. This curiosity led him to set up his first Bitcoin mining operation on a humble laptop — a seed that would later flourish into a passionate pursuit.
