A VIP Udemy Instructor Partner who has helped more than 1 million learners in 220+ countries build practical skills for work.
My focus is helping professionals use ChatGPT and AI with more confidence, clarity, and practical purpose. I’m also in the top 3% of ChatGPT users worldwide (According to OpenAI) which means I spend a lot of hands-on time testing what actually works in real use and not just chasing the latest AI hype.
Many people know AI is important, but they feel overwhelmed by the constant updates, confusing features, and pressure to keep up. They wonder: What should I actually use AI for? Am I prompting it correctly? How do I avoid generic answers? What is safe to put into AI? How do I avoid losing my own judgment?
That is where I can help.
My style is friendly, practical, and engaging. I like to make complex topics feel simple, useful, and even fun. Instead of flooding you with theory or buzzwords, I focus on real workplace problems turning scattered thoughts into useful next steps.
My courses are designed to be clear, practical, and easy to apply. Instead of overwhelming you with theory or technical jargon, I focus on examples, prompts, workflows, and step-by-step demonstrations you can actually use.

Provides a solid introduction and basis for early decision-making whether you want to invest in emerging coins or established ones. Heavy emphasis on ability to take the insights provided and hone your own skills based on experience and goals. You may find yourself skimming occasionally as things get reintroduced. Enough depth was provided, in my opinion, but more would be appreciated.
By Frederico Butzke on 3/4/2018
There are many old questions that the author has not yet replied. In addition, the technical analysis part, which I had great expectations, were superficially explained and I feel I am not able to understand trends yet.
By Mussavir Sheikh on 2/22/2018
Great foundational course on cryptocurrencies. I walked in knowing not a lot and am leaving with a decent understanding of the Crypto world. I would recommend this course to anyone starting out in the world of Crypto. I only wish that there was more information on how to buy and sell on exchanges while analyzing technical analysis charts. Great information to get the wheels rolling regardless. The course will give you most of the information you need and it will definitely set you up with the resources you will need to research on your own time to better understand the subject matter. Thanks Steve!

Useful insight and overview for beginners. Well-explained and well-structured by starting from the basics. I liked the idea to give an overview of the different possibilities and to be cautious of the volatility of the market: this reflects the seriousness of the instructor.

This course was comprehensive, offered many examples applicable to the current cryptocurrency space and how investments are realized, how the underlying technology actually works, and who are some of the players involved. Literally started this course with zero understanding, now I feel like a qualified expert on cryptocurrency. Many of the mysteries were demystified to my satisfaction, I would encourage other students wanting to learn it from an instructor that really delivers easy to follow, small byte size portions to easily digest what could otherwise be a large meal. Good luck to the next student(s), thank you Steve for the preparing and delivering an excellent lecture.
By Yash Dalvi on 1/25/2018
Excellent basic understanding of investing, not just about cryptos but this can be applied to general stocks I feel. Also one important comment I would like to give that , now there are websites available which give about 5 virtual bitcoins to trade in real world - real market. This servers to be excellent platform to apply the learning's in the course to the real time market and that too without investing any real money. One such site is : http://www.cryptocoinbits.com , not sure if there are others like this
By Gjack Jackson on 12/26/2017
I absolutely love this course. I've taken more than 50 courses on Udemy and this has got to be one the my top 3. The Instructor keep it simple but the information was very high level. He has a way of explaining complex things very simple. In my onion this was the best course for beginners that I've seen on Udemy. Highly Recommend I feel so much more informed about the whole cryptocurrency industry after completing this course.

I really like how Mr. Ballinger is approaching to the subject in a basic way. He is so energetic and fun during all his videos and you also learn a lot of stuff if you are new to the cryptocurrency world like me. However, I would like to see more detailed examples in order to understand the logic of everything he is talking about. Also, it would better if he slows down a little bit while he is talking for being more understandable for people outside of the US like me. However, I purchased this course while it was discounted, so nothing to complain. Good Job Mr. Ballinger. Thanks
By Chen Karmely on 11/14/2017
It is a great course, passed with real enthusiazm from the instructor about the cryptocurrency subject, - very informative and gives you kind of every thing you need in order to understand the cryptocurrency world. It really opens your mind and a good overall view for further investigation, learning and experiencing and actually giive you great startagy to begin with and to fight emotional diffuculties, It really drils down to technical and fundamental investing in a very clear and smart way. To put it simple - great course, really detailed with great value! Thank you!

Good overall course. The basic are there, clearly explained. The teacher seems to really want us to learn what he is teaching. Cons: it’s a 7 hours course that could easily fit into 5, because he repeat everything all the time which can be good for some but irritating for others. Example; candlestick graph. After one minute, it’s was clear, but this segment was 8 min... It’s not a hands on course, more theorical. Ex: I now know the basic of the wallet and the exchange, it i’m not sure how to transfert from one to another because he hasn’t done any real demo, but we checked the website of many of them...
