# **About US**#
**Tim Smith** has spent over a decade in the financial and tech industries, with a focus on data and automation. After the 2008-2009 housing bubble, he tested demographic theories developed from several studies he conducted and experienced explosive market returns, while also consulting with companies and individuals interested in these data. In late 2010, his attention turned toward the crypto-currency community as he begin to see the undemocratic nature of the mainstream financial system. He continues to build ideas with technology and automation while trading in undervalued markets. Interested in Bitcoin Investing?
