peter Peter Atlanta Because crypto opened my eyes to a world in which I could build in, thrive in, and LIVE in with my peeps! I love racing, cars, and everything automotive. F1 is my jam.

Hello everybody! I think its necessary to introduce myself as a member of the Peter P-Rep team! My name is Corey Costa, ICON Ambassador! I have been in cryptocurrency since the middle of 2017 and I fell in love with the idea of interoperability and blockchain networks, and also, the acquisition of different monetary instruments. Today, in the year 2021, I am proud to state that I have worked for over three different cryptocurrency companies which include Sharder: Gokshtein Media and ICON. Now, I work alongside Peter and Matt and also, I am on another Public Representative team within the ICON Ecosystem known as ICON Midos. I was named the First ICON Ambassador and have a YouTube channel and online cryptocurrency course. After 4 years of hard-work, I can say, without a shadow of a doubt, that my passion is cryptocurrency and blockchain technological systems, for it facilitates a better world of inclusivity, globalized finance and a new form of digital investment. This is the future, this is blockchain!! For cryptocurrency news, follow me at my Twitter handle coreycosta123 ! See you there!

Name: Matt Where are you from: SoCal! Why crypto: Was looking for the next step back in 2016, looking for a way into self sovereignty. Five long years later, here I am! Random fact: I love multimedia, VFX, art, and the like. Also, food.

Alright, just signed up and i'm looking forward to watching and helping build this community. ICON is such an awesome project and it really deserves to have worldwide recognition! Name: Brandon Where are you from? :" Albuquerque, NM, USA Why crypto? : Well as a web application developer I've had a lingering interest in distributed ledger technology for a long time. But oddly enough I didn't officially enter into crypto until about 2015 when I decided I wanted to start mining ETH. Long story short, I wanted to take the next step and become more involved with the industry and found ICON late 2017 and I truly believe it represents all the potential block chain has promised for over a decade now. Random Fact : Another big reason I got into crypto was because I enjoy a lot of poker and cryptocurrencies have and continue to be popular with that community!

FBM_Brandon Glad to have your hear Brandon! Also cool to hear about how you got involved in crypto. I see you on the socials, so context is good 🙂 .

Name: Avi Where are you from: Bay Area (Silicon Valley) Why crypto: Came for the profits, stayed for the paradigm shift and technology (intriguing to me as a software engineer). Random fact time: I enjoy teaching. I co-founded a coding bootcamp , from which I have exited. I am also into cars but not to the same extent as Peter. Current: C43 AMG, Previous: M4, 911 s, Next: Taycan Turbo

• Joseph Garcia
• Miami, FL
• I entered the crypto market in 2017 after winning some money in a fantasy football league around the time Bitcoin became a sensation. After doing research and reading some white papers I came across ICON's whitepaper and became fascinated instantly. I had a feeling I'd come across a gem. My belief that the world would benefit from blockchain technology has only grown stronger with time.
• I am big into sports, gaming, and learning about the new tools being developed through blockchain innovation.

I came to join crypto in Summer 2017 made some very good money with Bitcoin cashed out with the previous ATH and put some profits in ICX and bought since then ICX. Was of course influenced by Peter back then to find ICX but hope of a good ride, so we all having fun. I was ""founding member"" of the Pub as well. 🙂

Welcome Robert! What a cool job, and that pub founding member status though 👊.

Glad to have you here Dilyan! I see you have that thrill seeking lifestyle. Live life to the fullest man 🚀 .

Hey boys, a great initiative (and a definitely needed one for the ICON community)! Here are a few words about me:

Name: Dilyan
Where are you from: Varna, Bulgaria
Why crypto: I was trading FOREX several years ago, but have only heard and used Bitcoin for some payments at the time. In the late 2017 I got caught in the crypto hype. Took my stab at it while not fully understanding the market (bought ICON's absolute top at 12$+), lost a pretty good amount because of that. However, I loved the idea of buying fast moving assets (dynamic TA) with rapidly moving technology behind it (dynamic FA), so I did a thorough research on several coins and eventually I came back to ICON in 2019 and stuck with it ever since
Random fact: I am never at a standstill and I love trying new and unique things (which I usually get quite passionate about). To name a few: flair bartending, playing poker, punk/hardcore concerts, snowboarding (broke my arm and my shoulder on two separate occasions), white water rafting, scuba diving, driving ATVs etc - pretty much anything that gets my blood racing

Matt Thanks Matt! Im experiencing quite substantial slowdown lately because of the kids, but yeah, I believe that the most important thing in life is not to slow down and get comfortable. Challenges, no matter the type, make us feel alive! ;-)

Where are you from: Previously the Bitcoin.pub but for now Florida
Why Crypto: "Why Not Crypto?" Although not a "Maximalist", I do genuinely believe Bitcoin is one of the most, if not the most significant invention ever.
Random Fact: CS Bachelors just completed last month and now itching to develop something in the crypto space as a side project. The extent of crypto development I have is simply integrating an ICON Wallet and being able to to transfer back and forth testnet ICX as a feature of an app I was working on. Also love cars. So the dream life would being able to create something in crypto focused on improving peoples health and enjoying race cars.
