Legacyz - Director of Strategic Partnerships
Hi Everyone! My name is Legacyz and I would like to extend a warm welcome to everyone that’s investing in the crypto space. I got into crypto back in 2014 and have done very well in mining, trading and investing in the crypto sphere. Over the last bull market, nothing has accelerated my portfolio more than Gray Digital. It has allowed me to not only gain an upper hand in what’s going on in the market but also make huge profits. I’ve been following Gray since 2021 and have came to respect and love everything he has to offer in this space. Throughout the last 3 years, I have built my own portfolio and passive income level to the point where I can fully quit my corporate job and give this space my full undivided attention. I’m a person that loves new and innovative ideas whether it be a full on degen play to a full blown corporate driven product, I’m here to analyze dissect and profit from it. My goals are to help each and everyone in this group to achieve financial freedom and financial success in the ever-changing, ever-evolving crypto world. Official Discord Username: Legacyz (legacyz)
Tinker - Director of Trading and Analysis
Hey there, I'm Tinker! I've been diving into the exciting world of investing and crypto since 2016. Let me tell you, the last two bull cycles have treated me pretty well, and I'm hungry for even more success in the next one! I've been a part of Gray Digital from day one, and it's been an incredible journey so far. Balancing my trading activities with school wasn't easy, but it taught me a lot about multitasking and staying on top of the market trends. I've got a knack for spotting projects that are worth investing in, and I can quickly tell which ones to skip. Right now, I'm lucky to be undergoing a one-year mentorship with a renowned trader. It's an opportunity for me to expand my knowledge, learn new strategies, and ultimately offer our premium members in Gray Digital even better setups. My goals? Well, I want to become an absolute pro at macro investing and trading. But that's not all—I'm determined to make Gray Digital the go-to destination for all crypto enthusiasts. Whether you're looking to join a fund, leverage our nifty trading bots, or get expert trading trigger calls, we've got you covered! Official Discord Username: Tinker (tinker11)
Raye - Director of Research
This is Raye! I’ve been actively involved in the traditional financial markets since 2017 as an options writer. I was very intrigued by the derivatives (options) market and obsessed with the complexity and the mathematics behind the option greeks, which actually share a number of similarities to liquidity farming in the world of DeFi. This gives me a small edge in the market when it comes to profitability and risk management.
I started my incredible Crypto & DeFi Journey in 2021. Although my history with Cryptocurrency and DeFi hasn’t been long like most others, I’m deeply obsessed with blockchain technology and the gamified aspect of DeFi. For the past 2 years, I have been an active DeFi investor and have been through dozens, if not hundreds of DeFi projects. I have also worked with a number of projects and even started my own Dune Analytics page (@riskyfish), which is an open platform dedicated to Blockchain Analytics.
From the very beginning of my DeFi journey, It was pretty clear to me that we can't achieve true sustainability without real revenue and a carefully designed tokenomic. 99% of the projects have shared one core principle - they all rely on unsustainable hype and ponzinomics. It’s all fun and exciting, until it isn’t and dies. Dex token, Perp Dex token, Rebase token, Negative Rebase token, Reflection token, Seigniorage token, Node, High-Yield NFT, LP Farm, you name it. And this is exactly why the Gray Digital Ecosystem will be the ultimate go-to destination for sustainable yield, as well as Crypto / DeFi knowledge! Official Discord Username: raye5199
Dreko - Director of Strategy and Consulting
Welcome to The Gray Digital! My name is Dreko and I have been involved in cryptocurrency since January 2021. In 2021, I was a co-founder for the cryptocurrency research group Cryptonairz. During my time there, I managed a research team, conducted in depth project analysis, conducted online interviews with projects and developers. As I learned about crypto projects and the fundamentals of how cryptocurrency operates, I established an emphasis in crypto security. I consulted as advisor and security specialist for several individuals and projects to help develop robust on-chain and off-chain defensive strategies and/or locate and recover lost or stolen crypto through on-chain analytics. In January 2022, I founded a social group which over time developed into a crypto Service Protocol NFT project called Bourbon-n-Blockchain Services. The project has since been dismantled due to the changing/uncertain regulatory landscape. Currently, I operate as a consultant for projects or organizations that are seeking experience in security, management, operations and development services.
