FARIS MALI - BITCOIN ADVISOR 

As a former lecturer of International Relations, Faris enjoys explaining complex issues simply. 

He holds a Bachelor Degree in International Relations and a Master’s Degree in International Development from Deakin University, Melbourne. He is trilingual, a former lecturer in International Relations and Political Economics and interned for President Jimmy Carter’s Centre for Peace and Development.

Faris was an avid investor from the age of 24, when he bought his first of several properties. His weekends were often devoted to going to investment seminars and workshops on investing in real estate, gold and individual equities.  

After a more than 10 year career in International Relations and Development Faris started day-trading (US and Australian equities, currencies, and crypto-currencies) on a full time basis. In his macro-economics research he came across Bitcoin and could see the macro-economic disruption it would create. Faris’ daily research into global financial markets, macro–economics and geopolitics enables him to keep up to date with how governments and private enterprise are now adopting blockchain technology and recognising Bitcoin as an industry whose time has come.

Faris is co-Founder and Director of CoinCompass Pty Ltd and co-host of The Bitcoin Basics Podcast.  He has authored ‘Bitcoin Begins, beginner's guide to money, currency and Bitcoin’.
