AXiS ALiVE started in cryptocurrency in February of 2017 during the great parabolic bull run. After discovering mining in March of the same year, he and a partner decided to build their first mid-sized mining operation. During that time AXiS met his Mentor The Contrarian who ran the risk side of the portfolio for the Chicago Board of Trade for 34 years before retiring during the 2008 Financial Crisis. Contrarian saw the opportunities in cryptocurrency due to the volatility and asked AXiS, Why bother mining when so much success could be gotten from using crypto as a trading instrument. For the next 4 years the two worked together to learn and teach the old and new ways of the markets and technology. In 2021, AXiS sold his mining operation at the $64,000 Bitcoin top. With the overhead and liabilities out of the way, they set their sites on broadening their reach to help others find the resources and information that is not so easily available or reliable out in the wild.
