Andreas started his career by being a member of the research team at Nemertes Research, who was concerned about the computer security protocols. His only belief was that no great hacker was a threat to computer security systems. Still, the continually growing Complex systems that were developed for the businesses would destroy the computer security. In the year 2012, he came across the term Bitcoin and was very fascinated about it. This let him quit his job as a freelance consultant and started giving speeches about the concept of Bitcoin. Andreas also spent his time writing articles on Bitcoin.
He started to get gaining fame, and his name was also among the headlines of the famous news portals after he began raising funds for Dorian Nakamoto. Dorian Nakamoto is one of the founding members of Bitcoin. This event took place in the year 2014. The fundraising campaign was able to gather a total of $ 23000 at that time.
Andreas was very sceptical about the growth of this cryptocurrency as he believed that during any economic crisis the Bitcoin might be used as a lifeboat or might be doomed with the other market. He thinks that the cryptocurrency was still not prepared for the common masses to use.
