What is known about Oleksandr Orlovskyi before crypto

Oleksandr Orlovskyis hometown is Kyiv. He was born and lived in Troyeshchyna. His father earned enough money for some time. Later, the situation worsened, and the teenager heard complaints about the lack of money almost every day. The atmosphere at home was depressing, and then an opportunity arose to change everything. In 2014, family friends were leaving Donetsk due to the Russian invasion and offered Oleksandr Orlovskyi to move to Poland. He agreed to try something new.

I heard my father say theres no money almost five times a day. I wanted to escape from this negative environment, — said Oleksandr Orlovskyi.

That’s how his independent life began at the age of 16. Oleksandr Orlovskyi settled in the small Polish town of Zgierz, right on the border with Germany. He lived in a small room and did everything himself: he ironed, cooked, washed dishes, studied at school, learned Polish, and passed his final exams.

At the age of 18, he entered university and moved to Wrocław. Here he had to work in low-paid jobs and was constantly short of money. Oleksandr Orlovskyi was looking for a way to earn money and that was when he first became interested in cryptocurrency.

I worked as a bartender and did every job imaginable; I cleaned shrimp, washed dishes, and worked as a gas station attendant. And that was while I was still in school. I worked as a waiter at weddings, — said the 27-year-old entrepreneur.

How and when Oleksandr Orlovskyi got acquainted with cryptocurrencies

As Oleksandr Orlovskyi recounted, while working at a bar, he accidentally met Mateusz, a Polish man who was involved in cryptocurrency. Oleksandr became interested in the new idea and decided to give it a try.

It was just the first thing that came to hand, where I saw that you could make money, — he said.

Oleksandr Orlovskyi listened to advice from crypto mentors and searched for information himself on YouTube. In one interview, he said that his first crypto investment was a fraction of a bitcoin, purchased in 2017 for $2,000. After that, he lost $100 twice. At that time, he had no money to pay for his apartment and had to live with friends. Then he lost $1,000 twice. To make a new investment in crypto, Oleksandr Orlovskyi pawned his mother’s earrings.

I got 2,000 zlotys for them, which is about $600. That’s when things started to work out for me, — the young man said about his first successes.

Oleksandr Orlovskyi added that he gradually gained experience and knowledge and started to earn some money. He didn’t spend his earnings, worked as an Uber driver, and continued to invest. When his crypto income stabilized, he quit his job.

Oleksandr Orlovskyi’s activities in the crypto industry

The entrepreneur said that during his first steps in digital business, he attended a conference of Polish crypto experts. The young man saw successful investors arriving in expensive cars and wearing expensive clothes. Oleksandr remembered himself assweaty and dirty at one of these events. When he learned about new directions in the crypto industry from experienced colleagues, he wanted to grow further.

I realized then that if I suddenly managed to make money in crypto, I would definitely share it, — said Oleksandr Orlovskyi.

On Oleksandrs Instagram page, you can see excerpts from his speeches at events dedicated to crypto investing. According to him, there have been more than 50 such conferences. For example, he was a Special Guest Speaker at the Magic of the Morning meeting, which took place in Warsaw in 2024. The topic of his speech was The first $5,000 from scratch in crypto.

What do Oleksandr Orlovskyis students say? Reviews about FFA

According to Oleksandr Orlovskyi, the best thing about the FFA community and courses is the reviews and case studies from students.

In the summer of 2024, 32-year-old Alona from Vinnytsia shared her case study. She is a chemist and biologist by profession. Her first attempts at crypto brought her $10 in micro-income. At first, she couldnt even imagine that it was possible to make money on a computer, but during the war, she came across Oleksandr Orlovskyi’s lectures. In a YouTube video, Alona shared how she made $2,000.

The explanations are very accessible, even my 80-year-old grandmother would understand. I think its super important to stay in the community because it helps you stay motivated between projects, — she says in the video.

Another student, Ruslan B., noted that at first he didnt understand anything about cryptocurrency. However, the FFA mentors explained everything clearly, and now he has a plan and has really started making money.

Oleksandr Orlovskyi acknowledged that there are people who complain about the lack of results. He explained that out of 20,000 students, there may be about 200 such cases. Oleksandr compared learning and cryptocurrency investment algorithms to Lego and the instructions that come with it. In his opinion, the reason for failure is not following the algorithm clearly.

They did not do what we advised them to do. They had instructions that had worked for other people. You wouldn sue Lego for not being able to assemble the blocks the entrepreneur noted.

What are the most common mistakes in crypto according to Oleksandr Orlovskyi

Oleksandr Orlovskyi highlighted the top three mistakes made when choosing coins and projects.

1. Lack of understanding why you are buying a coin. You always need to know why you are buying it.
2. Lack of a profit withdrawal plan. You need to have at least a rough idea of how you are going to do it.
3. Not monitoring your own investment portfolio. That is, you need to keep an eye on the project as well as on events around it.
   You need to either keep your finger on the pulse yourself or get information from somewhere, — the crypto trader emphasized.

Oleksandr Orlovskyi outside of crypto: charity and personal life

The 27-year-old entrepreneur does not talk much about his personal life. His Instagram features photos from business conferences, air travel, hotels, and conference rooms, as well as luxury cars. Oleksandr Orlovskyi described how he fell in love with the BMW X6. He noted that he did not initially plan to buy such a car, but changed his mind after getting behind the wheel and taking it for a spin a few times.

Another characteristic of a person who earned $1 million at the age of 25 is his modesty in clothing. As Oleksandr Orlovskyi explained, he has a stack of Zara T-shirts and Levis jeans. Once at a conference, someone was surprised: how is it that the speaker is talking about investments while wearing a $50 Tommy Hilfiger T-shirt.

I like to live well and dress well, but its not essential. Its interesting to spend money on cars, apartments, and watches. But it should be a small part of your capital, up to 10%. Otherwise, it wont be comfortable, — he explained.

Oleksandr has a girlfriend with whom he is moving to an apartment in Dubai in the UAE. He likes the city and the country because it is easier to engage in crypto trading there, the laws work well, and the streets are clean.

Oleksandr Orlovskyis social media pages contain information about donations. The entrepreneur said that he transfers about 100,000 hryvnia every month for drones and the needs of the Ukrainian army. On Instagram, there are receipts for 100,000 and 200,000 hryvnia to the accounts of the charitable organization Wave 91 UA.
