About Vakeesan
As a Blockchain enthusiast and cryptocurrency trader with over 8 years of experience in the financial industry, I bring a unique perspective that bridges traditional finance and the emerging digital asset ecosystem. My journey in finance began at a large asset management firm, where I developed a deep understanding of market dynamics, risk management, and investment strategies that now inform my approach to cryptocurrency trading and blockchain innovation.
My professional credentials include the prestigious Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) designation and Certified Blockchain Professional (CBP) certification, reflecting my commitment to excellence in both traditional finance and emerging blockchain technologies. This dual expertise allows me to analyze cryptocurrency markets through a sophisticated lens, combining technical blockchain knowledge with fundamental financial analysis.
"The intersection of traditional finance and blockchain technology represents the most significant evolution in financial markets since electronic trading. My mission is to help others navigate this transformation with confidence and understanding."
I'm excited to be part of Cryptovest, where I can share my knowledge and help educate the world about different aspects of blockchain technology and cryptocurrency trading. My approach focuses on demystifying complex concepts, providing actionable insights, and helping both newcomers and experienced traders make informed decisions in the rapidly evolving crypto landscape.
With a strong foundation from the University of Waterloo, known for its excellence in mathematics and technology, I combine analytical rigor with practical market experience. This unique background enables me to provide comprehensive analysis that considers both the technological innovations driving blockchain adoption and the market forces shaping cryptocurrency valuations.
