Course Description

Created by a former Registered Investment Advisor (RIA), Series 7 stockbroker and mutual fund wholesaler representing America's top money managers. A nationally award winning entrepreneur, best selling author, degree in finance from Eastern Michigan University.

This is the only Bitcoin and CryptoCurrency course on Udemy taught by an individual with both 15 years of Investment Advisory and CryptoCurrency experience. 

You see, I spent 15 years as a Registered Investment Advisor, Series 7 stockbroker and mutual fund wholesaler. I worked with the top money managers including J.P. Morgan Asset Management, Pimco, Blackrock, and State Street Global Advisors. When you really think about it, doesn't it make sense to learn about cryptocurrency from an individual with a solid financial background in both investment advisory and cryptocurrency?

I am also an equity investor and advisor to a fintech, digital asset firm that recently raised $29,000,000 USD in Series A funding to build out our digital asset software platform.

By John Marsden on 5/3/2018

I was looking for a course which could give me an overall understanding of how CryptoCurrency works including information about the coins, wallets, exchanges, how to acquire and store bitcoin, and so on. With that said, Andy did a superb job of covering everything mentioned and a whole lot more besides. If You're looking to get a better understand about the world of crypto this course is an excellent starting point.

By Virtual Productions on 4/29/2018

Andy goes into detail on specific concepts and subjects that are important to comprehend, but explains them in a way that is easily understandable for someone new to the future. His actual real world experience as a professional licensed trader allows him to see things that most of us overlook, but he doesn't hold back on sharing his insightful and forward thinking knowledge with the rest of the world. Thanks Andy!

I just wanted to see well enough before saying anything. I think the app is great.

By Martin Naylor on 2/24/2018

Well worth the effort. This short course gave me some valuable education, particularly on the future use of cryptocurrencies. Well done Andy and keep up the good work.

By Jennie on 2/18/2018

Insightful and well explained. I really like how the course walks through everything and uses examples to explain smart contracts. Good advice on making a portfolio.

By Tom Randall on 2/15/2018

good information, especially for someone just getting started. It really gave me a great overview and good roadmap.

By Linda on 2/15/2018

This was a new topic for me so I found the info to be good and it was presented in a way that's easy to understand. There were several slides where the numbers/info on the slide was significantly different than the voice over and there was no way to tell which was correct. Also, toward the end, when discussing the advantages and disadvantages, the slides are out of order. There could have been a better job editing to match what was being said with the slides but the overall information was good.

By Randy Schimpf on 2/14/2018

I learned a great deal about Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies from Andy's course and now feel confident about investing in the crypto market.

By Susan Ackerman on 2/13/2018

Very in-depth course and the instructor was very knowledgeable about Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies. This course really showed me how to get started in Bitcoin. I really liked the 3-tier strategy, too.

By Joyce Lewis on 1/7/2018

I appreciated Andy's cryptocurrency and exchange recommendations and comparisons, but would have liked to see some illustrations and/or video examples included in the presentation. Good in-depth explanation of cryptocurrencies. Investing strategy was a little vague, but Andy did include the three tiers, which is really good.
