CJK is the visionary & founder of Peoples Reserve and a lifelong advocate for financial sovereignty. His journey into Bitcoin began back in 2013, when curiosity led him down the rabbit hole to his first orange pill moment, he never looked back.

From the early days of Bitcoin mining to deep explorations into decentralized finance (DeFi), CJK has always sought to understand the systems that shape our financial lives — and how to build something better. While firmly a Bitcoin maximalist, he recognized early on that DeFi holds the key to unlocking Bitcoin’s full potential — not just as a savings technology, but also as the most pristine form of collateral the world has ever known.

Driven by a belief that the current financial system is designed to extract value from people, CJK founded Peoples Reserve to change the game — by building a marketplace that delivers value back to We The People. His approach blends Bitcoin's sound monetary economics with the fintech innovations of DeFi, creating a path toward a more equitable and empowered true free market future.
