Nick started investing in cryptocurrencies in 2013, however his crypto career really began straight out of high school when he started a custom PC business that built rigs for gaming and Bitcoin mining.
He joined Divi in 2017 as a full stack developer and was invited to become a co-founder of the fledgeling business. Soon after, he took on responsibility for building and maintaining all of Divi’s web services, client-facing apps, and protocol development for Divi Core.
He quickly progressed and in 2019 he became Divi’s Chief Information Officer, where he deploys his skills in programming and functional design to achieve the company’s core aim; to make crypto easy and drive its mainstream adoption.

Jamil Hasan is a Generation X Author and experienced data intelligence technology builder with two decades of experience leading data-based teams at Fortune 100 companies, including AIG, Prudential Financial, and Ingersoll Rand. Jamil believes that skill and experience, not just age, is the most important factor required to build and lead corporate organizations. His unique story, as someone on the ground floor of the 2008 financial crisis and his role to help repay the $180 billion AIG bailout, enabled him to come face-to-face with many of the societal ills facing Generation X today and their causes. As the result of his experience, Jamil has developed a path forward for his fellow Gen Xers to restore his generation’s financial standing in society today and to rebuild the American Dream for Generation X.
