Hello fellow Steemians! My name is Isaiah Croatt and I live quite the random life! I am 20 years old (almost 21) and live in a place called Sioux Falls, South Dakota in the United States. Its a bigger midwestern town with quite the interesting culture for its area.

I have become many different things already in my life, but overall, I have always been an entrepreneur. This started when I was only in middle school, when the school banned sugary soda in their machines, I started selling it myself out of my locker! I then proceeded to start my own businesses and get involved in other people's as soon as I was able. The very first business I owned part of was an Internet Service Provider in a small Minnesota rural area.

I graduated High School with an Associates Degree in Psychology and proceeded to enter College in South Dakota. I started as a pre-medicine major, but my drive to be an entrepreneur quickly started coming back to the surface. I switched my major quickly into college to Business Economics and proceeded down that route. During my time in school, I started 6 businesses, ranging from web development to washing windows. I also decided to try my hand at politics, and even ran for local office!

After school, I decided to start a new path in the way of Finance. At first, I began pursuing a conventional finance career (investment advisor, etc.), but my path quickly diverged with the explosion of popularity in Cryptocurrency. I had always loved the idea of Cryptocurrency and had been playing with Bitcoin since around 2010, when it was worth very little to nothing. I even got involved with mining it for profit during its first big explosion in 2013! As the difficulty of mining increased and Bitcoin fell back under the radar, I stopped playing with it for a while. When it exploded again just recently, I decided to pursue my interest and love of Cryptocurrency, and that brings us to today!

Today, I am the Chief Research Officer of a company called CoinLion in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. We are building a super awesome Cryptocurrency exchange that offers many amenities over other exchanges such as portfolio management tools, better tools and integrations, increased security, and a team that is on the forefront of Cryptocurrency regulation. I also run a Cryptocurrency hedge fund, which has been very successful so far!

This brings everyone about up to speed with me! Thank you for reading and feel free to post any comments or questions below!
