Meet the Team

Founder, CEO

Born and raised in Ukraine, Marina Acton graduated from George Washington University Law School in 2013. While she gained valuable experience interning in the federal court system and subsequently working at an intellectual property law firm in Washington, D.C., she soon realized her passion lay beyond traditional legal practice.

From 2014 to 2017, Marina pursued a singing career, embracing her creative side before shifting focus to business and investments. During this time, Marina also ventured into real estate, gaining valuable insights and enjoying the challenges of property investment.

In 2017, Marina entered the cryptocurrency space with an investment in Blockchange Ventures, a decision that significantly accelerated her financial growth. This success deepened her interest in blockchain technology and alternative investments.

Now, in 2025, Marina is fully immersed in the Bitcoin mining industry, leveraging her expertise in investment strategy and blockchain infrastructure. As an independent investor, Marina has the freedom to explore cutting-edge opportunities while building a sustainable and forward-thinking business.

Jackson Hole, Wyoming, has become her second home, where Marina has established an office and continues to expand her ventures in the digital asset space.
