At EmpowermeEOS, our students are not only being equipped with tools and gadgets, such as smartphones, laptops and internet subscription etc, in order to connect them to the rest of the world and break the digital divide, they are also being empowered with a wide array of digital skills and mentorship towards attaining financial independence. Equally, ensuring community development is of high importance to us and this is why our students are being trained to become leaders in their various communities so that after we empower them, they can go ahead and help others, creating a ripple effect. One of the ways they can learn leadership skills is by emulating role models who are already leading lights in the digital/tech world. As often said, the first step in becoming a leader is following. In this post, EmpowermeEOS student, Mercy Akande, talks briefly about one of those role models, Rhett Creighton
Rhett is also popular speaker on cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology (the SF Bitcoin developer meet up, cryptocurrency market and the Disrupt Podcast). He was listed by Mobidea Academy as one of the 9 cryptocurrency experts. He is known world over as a Cryptography professional, shitcointologist, as well as a Bloomberg featured Author, BTC core contributor, MIT alumna and as the creator of #800cryptoclub.
Being an advocate for the adoption of cryptocurrency and blockchain technology, he is well known on Twitter for spreading information and educating people about cryptocurrency and blockchain technology. He challenges people to become legends and also inspires people to give and do good.
Rhett has been of a great help to a lot of people on Twitter as he has educated many on how to start their cryptocurrency journey. A lot of people have benefitted from this and they have attested to this.
