Hello Steemit.
My name is Mike. I am a stay at home Dad, enthusiastic Tottenham Hotspur supporter, and growingly becoming a cryptocurrency / blockchain enthusiast.
I am an American who found Spurs in the time of Martin Jol. Tottenham has gotten me through some rough spots in life. Keano was my first favorite player. Bale got me off my seat the most. Modric is the best I've seen in our shirt. Harry is one of our own. The club is my biggest passion and likely what I will write about the most.
I have a fairly useless degree in Poli-Sci, that yielded little bread winning until my recent foray into the world of cryptocurrency. In this space, diligent research and a decent understanding of economics go a long way. For years I had been fascinated by bitcoin but did not put my money where my mouth and mind were. Then I became interseted in Ethereum only to watch it rise. I decided to get into ETH before I deemed it "too late." I ended up selling early to pay some bills but got back into crypto this summer. I ended up becoming an active member of the PIVX community for a while, where I met some great people and learned a lot. Although I no longer consider myself a Pivian, I owe of my network and knowledge to chatting and connecting in their slack. I joined a telegram group with some of the members of that slack and soon became immersed in Alts and ICOs. Some of the bigger fish liked my research skills and bad jokes, and made me an admin of the chat and and enlisted me to help do recon and research for ICOs and newer coins. I am now starting to learn how to make economic models for coins / tokenomics from another!online friend turned mentor. Some of my favorite coins are EOS, NULS, and OMG. I hope to share some of my coin reviews here to help out other newer investors and to learn from the rest of you as well.
