MMCrypto (Christopher Jaszczynski) is a German cryptocurrency expert with a net worth of $100 million. He owns one of the most popular crypto channels on YouTube, an impressive feat considering how competitive the industry is. His journey from taxi driver to multi-millionaire is an interesting journey more people should know about.
Life Before Success
Before all the fame and clickbait thumbnails, Chris was just a normal guy driving a taxi for a living. This was over six years ago, but his interest in cryptocurrency started earlier than that. It was around 2014/ 2015 when he first heard about crypto, but he was initially hesitant.
However, because he studied economics and had a strong knowledge of financial markets. That’s why he decided to give the concept of digital money a second chance. He combined his learnings from college with his interest in futuristic money to create a plan.
But unlike many success stories involving crypto, he didn’t do it alone. He had a team behind his back. It included Kerim Dolan, Davinci “DavinciJ15” Jeremie, Anup Dhungana, Samundra Bhusal, and Marcel Schlack.
Personal Life and Education
As the popularity of MMCrypto continues to rise, more people are curious about his personal life. Sad to say, there is not much information available on the internet and there’s also nothing about his love life. But Chris is open about other things, like his education. He graduated from Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University in 2015 with a degree in Investment Management.
In 2017, he got a degree in Applied Economics from Osnabrück University and he later studied Digital Currencies at the University of Nicosia in the same year. He started working on his master’s degree in Management and Economics at the University of Münster in 2019.
Currently, the 27-year-old lives in the United Arab Emirates. A lot of crypto entrepreneurs such as Carl Runefelt are now living in the UAE to avoid paying hefty tax bills on their profits.
YouTube Career
Christopher believed that the best way to share content was through YouTube. The channel uploaded its first video on September 13, 2017. Aside from the typical price analysis, the channel also covers economic trends, monetary policy, and expert interviews.
The channel is consistent with its uploads, releasing over 1,100 videos on the platform. As of December 2023, MMCrypto has 564,000 subscribers but its growth has slowed down due to the crypto bear market. With bitcoin back to $40,000, his video views should pick up.
Founding MMConsult
Jaszczynski led the group and they put their money into Bitcoin, altcoins, and Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs). They also had long-term holdings, but they decided to outplay the market by trading crypto at the same time.
It was a huge success and they decided to share insights with the masses. MMConsult was formed by Jaszczynski and his colleagues in 2017. They act as a network of consultants and investors who aim to contribute to the progress of blockchain projects.
They were among the first to use on-chain analysis to forecast the price of Bitcoin. Hopefully they were able to use it to predict the crypto collapse in 2022 and avoid heavy losses.
