Meet Denis Seleznev

While most 17 year olds are making TikToks and learning to drive, one London lad has built an entire crypto marketplace from the basement of his parents home.

Denis Seleznev first discovered cryptocurrency back in 2017 when he was just 12 years old. A year later he purchased his first Bitcoin and began trading on the blockchain.

Bitcoin just fascinated me on every level, says Seleznev. a silent act of freedom really.

In hopes of mitigating the risk that comes with crypto trading, this young teenager gradually transitioned into yield farming - allowing for more validation and verification of a projects success. Little did he know how valuable his continual learning would be - for both his personal endeavors but also for others exploring the blockchain themselves.

Seleznev even admits he never saw NFTs gaining so much momentum and jumped on the train just as the hype was starting to die down.

spent a lot of time researching because NFTs were a totally new concept to me.

As Seleznev began seeing the rise in NFTs, he understood their unique ability to sell culture something with intrinsic value that people everywhere could attach to. In his own trading however, Seleznev began seeing the disconnect between all the actions on the NFT marketplace - from those preparing to launch to individuals trying to swap.

It was this observance that led to Seleznev developing his own crypto project back in November 2021.

The goal is to unite all NFT actions onto one platform.

With a growing team that now consists of 12 engineers (from Ukraine), a Marketing Manager and a Chief Development Officer, Seleznev is preparing to launch his project just as soon as the market conditions improve. While some think that blockchain is a bust, others - like Seleznev - are excited about the future and eagerly preparing for it.

Right now we just focusing on the business side of things, which includes getting the artists, building the partnerships and getting on top of all the admin work.

Seleznev approaches even routine business tasks - like marketing - with the same innovation and curiosity that started his crypto ventures. His speedy foresight led him to discuss the most profitable marketing tactics with expert crypto marketers, Influx Group. His consultation led to the discovery of TikTok and other KOL strategies that have yielded enormous success for fellow crypto entrepreneurs.

The work of Seleznev is particularly unique, as he targets Web2 companies ready to make the leap into the Web3 world. Building this bridge between these two digital spheres is a critical step to further blockchain utilization.

Any Web2 business can sell their product as an NFT, given it has some deliverable utility to it.

While Seleznev waits to launch until the market stabilizes a little, the teenager continues to strategically grow both his knowledge and company. The majority of his time is spent finishing his secondary studies, but Seleznev says he still able to put about 4 hours a day into his crypto endeavors - which sometimes is dedicated solely to research.

As with many fellow cryptonites, Seleznev is hopeful the decentralized world will move away from the pump-and-dump culture and instead refocus on the reason for its initial creation: to bring freedom and protection of digital assets ownership back to the Web.

My hope for the future is to see the blockchain beat the scammers, NFTs to provide actual value and for the voice of the people to be returned without censorship.
