Welcome! I’m Andrey Ignatenko, the author of this site and the book Math Bitcoin Price Prediction: 2030, 2040, 2050. I’m Ukrainian and live in Ukraine. I’ve been an internally displaced person since 2014. Despite the war in my country, I find opportunities to work, write articles, and even the book. After all, a strong rear is the foundation for the front.

My native languages are Ukrainian and Russian. I love English; I appreciate its simplicity and universality, but I do not know it perfectly, although I continue to study it. I have no doubt that you will find mistakes in my English, and I hope they will bring a smile to your face. I will also continue to improve my knowledge of the language.

Expertise

I have been into trading since 2015, starting with Forex. My experience in Forex taught me the basics of trading and prompted me to read a huge number of books on the subject, as I didn’t have a clear understanding of what exactly to do. However, I had a strong desire to dive in and figure it out. In 2020, I bought Bitcoin for the first time, although I had been watching it since 2017. I’ve been trading crypto ever since. I prefer long-term strategies that last longer than one month. I tried intraday trading, but I didn’t enjoy it — it felt too nerve-wracking. Sometimes my strategies last only one week, but that’s rare; usually, they extend to two to three months or more.

A famous trader and author of many books (Dr. A. Elder) said that trading does not require formal education; rather, it relies on logic, clear thinking, and the ability to control one’s emotions. I would also add that math plays a crucial role, as it provides a foundation for justifying decisions. However, it is not a prerequisite, and many traders achieve great success without deep knowledge of mathematics.

By 2024, my knowledge and experience in crypto trading have accumulated enough for me to share them with the world. That’s why the book Math Bitcoin Price Prediction: 2030, 2040, 2050 appeared and is available on Amazon (ASIN‏: B0DHV5TVYG). After the publication of the book, I decided to create this small website where I would share my predictions and insights about the cryptocurrency market. Hopefully, the war in my country will still allow me to do this.

Academic profiles

In 2024, I not only published my book but also began conducting scientific research. My goal is to simplify Bitcoin price forecasting and make it accessible to everyone. I want anyone to be able to use my work to create their own predictions, which is why I made my research public. Some papers were published in early 2025, while others are still in preparation. The publication process is quite complex, as articles must undergo peer review in scientific journals; they don’t publish nonsense. Therefore, if an article is published, you can trust the information in it. I won’t be sharing a link to each article individually, but I encourage you to check out my academic profiles:

As new articles are published, they will be added to the resources listed above. Stay tuned for updates.

Well, we’ve met. Below are links to my social profiles. Contact me via LinkedIn, please. You can also reach me via email at info (at) math-bitcoin-predictions.com, but it would be better to contact me through LinkedIn.
