The latest trends in cryptocurrency, practical investment tools, the impact of global events on the market, and strategies for effective self-organization — these were the key topics at FFA CRYPTO RISE, a major event that brought together nearly 600 traders and investors from across Europe.

The event was held at the initiative of FFA founder and leader Oleksandr Orlovskyi. In his seven years in the field, he has not only gone from beginner to crypto expert earning millions of dollars, but has also united thousands of like-minded individuals around him.

Oleksandr Orlovskyi openly shares his path into crypto: “I graduated from a Polish high school and enrolled at a university. To support myself, I worked all kinds of jobs — gas station attendant, taxi driver, bartender. One day, I got into a conversation at the bar with a customer. He said he was making over $5,000 a month from crypto. That sounded like crazy money back then. So I gave it a try. I lost a few deposits at first, and then it took off. In 2019, I launched FFA — because I learned from personal experience how important your environment is. Now, our Discord has nearly 20,000 members. We chat, share insider info, and conduct training. What’s more — we can spontaneously decide to go on a trip anytime. Crypto opens up amazing opportunities.”

Today, Oleksandr Orlovskyi lives in Dubai. He bought his apartment and several premium cars with crypto profits. The expert regularly surprises his loved ones with expensive gifts, donates generously to charity, and teaches financial literacy to his younger brothers. He openly shares all of this on social media.

What Was Discussed at the FFA CRYPTO RISE Conference?

FFA CRYPTO RISE provided invaluable insights for both newcomers and experienced crypto investors looking to refine their strategies. The event featured prominent speakers, including:

• Dan  Karpilovskyi – Investor and founder of a major investment community.
• Eugen Dranishchev – Personal and business strategy coach.
• Maria Merlyn – Deputy Head of Trading Analytics at FFA.
• Kyl  Lakerio – Head of Crypto Strategies & Analyst.
• DED.USD – Head of the Trading Analytics Team.

During the conference, FFA founder Oleksandr Orlovskyi shared his top investment priorities for 2025, highlighting automated trading bots, short-term spot trading, rare airdrops, and Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs) as the most profitable opportunities in the coming year.

“There are dozens of ways to approach the cryptocurrency market. At FFA, we provide the knowledge and tools to help investors choose the strategy that fits their budget, time commitment, and profit expectations. Our experience proves that tailored strategies work—just last year, FFA participants collectively earned over $8 million,” Oleksandr Orlovskyi stated.

Crypto Market Trends 2025: What Investors Need to Know

Oleksandr Orlovskyi is convinced: in 2025, the cryptocurrency market will become even more complex — but it will also open new windows of opportunity. To avoid losing direction in the chaos, it’s crucial to understand what exactly to focus on. Here are a few key factors that, according to FFA experts, will have the greatest impact on the profitability of crypto strategies.

Bitcoin Halving: Why It Matters — and Why This Time Is Different

In April 2024, the latest Bitcoin halving took place — an event during which the reward to miners for each block is cut in half. This means the number of new bitcoins entering the market daily is reduced. Less supply — more scarcity — higher price. That’s how the classic model works. In 2016, after the halving, the BTC price tripled within a year. In 2020 — it grew fivefold. So what happened in 2024? And what changes should we expect in 2025?
Oleksandr Orlovskyi warns: “This time, the halving effect will be more muted. No matter how much the price rises, external factors also play a role — regulations, decisions by the Fed, macroeconomics. To avoid losses, investors need comprehensive analytics.”

New Tokens, Web3, Artificial Intelligence: Where to Look for Growth

2025 is the year of new themes in crypto. Taking center stage are tokens related to Web3, NFT utilities, and AI-driven projects.
Oleksandr Orlovskyi says: “Web3 is not just another trend. It’s an attempt to decentralize the internet — where data and tools are controlled not by corporations, but by the user.”

There’s also movement in the NFT segment: NFTs with utility are emerging — for example, as access passes to DAOs or gated platforms. These are no longer just “monkey pictures” — they’re tools for participation in decentralized ecosystems.

A separate topic is AI in crypto. Crypto users are already testing neural network-based trading assistants that help filter news, build market scenarios, and even analyze data in real time.

Here’s how Oleksandr Orlovskyi comments on the situation:
“Among the most promising metaverse tokens are Decentraland (MANA), The Sandbox (SAND), and Axie Infinity (AXS). All of these directions have potential — but also high risk. You shouldn’t jump in on the hype without deep analysis. We teach our students to look for logic — not just follow the trend.”

Algorithmic Trading: How Bots Are Changing the Game

Another key trend is algorithmic trading. Here, trades are executed not by a human but by a bot following a predefined scenario. It can independently buy or sell assets in response to price fluctuations, news, or the behavior of other market participants.
Oleksandr Orlovskyi cited research data showing that the algorithmic trading market is growing — and is projected to reach $26.14 billion by 2030.

FFA is actively implementing such tools: bots based on technical analysis, machine learning models, automated stop-losses and take-profits. “This doesn’t replace the trader,” explained Oleksandr Orlovskyi. “But it removes routine tasks and helps avoid emotional decisions.”

Global Events: Crypto Reacts First

Today, the crypto market reacts instantly to global events. For example, after the news of new U.S. trade tariffs in April 2025, BTC dropped by 8% in a single day. And this is a typical scenario. Why? Because crypto is “emotion in digital form.” If the market is nervous — it falls. If it anticipates positive news — it rises.

That’s why the speakers at the conference repeatedly emphasized: it’s not enough to just trade — you have to analyze the context. What is the event? What sector does it affect? How will institutional players react? Is there a risk of liquidity pressure?

This is no longer just trading — it’s working with the bigger picture.

Flexibility Over Formulas: The Core Message

In conclusion, Oleksandr Orlovskyi emphasized that flexibility, observation, and critical thinking are an investor’s main weapons in 2025.
“There’s no single correct way to work with the market. There are dozens of models — short-term, mid-term, with bots, without bots, with AI or on spot. Our task is to give people the tools and understanding to choose their own strategy,” he says.

And that’s exactly the FFA approach: not to hand out a template, but to teach people to think independently.

How Much Do FFA Graduates Earn — Real Stories, No Filter

Oleksandr Orlovskyi shared Financial Freedom Academy’s statistics: the average profit of course graduates is around $2,000. But behind every number is a real story — and all of them speak of change made possible through knowledge.

• Victor: “I wanted to grow, not just preserve.” Vadym is an entrepreneur. He had a stable income, but wanted to give his son more than just a “normal life.” He took FFA’s basic course, activated a trading bot with $1,000 — and reached $5,000 in profit. “Crypto has many directions. I like that you can find your own pace. The course gave me not only knowledge, but confidence,” he commented.
• Helen: From freelance to spot trading. After moving to Spain, Helen decided to change her career path and got into crypto. She started cautiously, step-by-step, with $500 in spot trading. After a few months, she had earned $8,000. She took the course with Oleksandr Orlovskyi as her mentor — and says that made all the difference.
  “I had already tried learning crypto — got into a scam and lost a large sum. But something told me to try again. I saw an ad for Oleksandr Orlovskyi online. I signed up — and I’m glad I did. Crypto isn’t just about risk — it’s about control and strategy.”
• Daniel: Results without starting capital. His journey began with $50 on Binance. Then came ICO participation, account farming, and trading through FFA’s modules. He organized his knowledge, learned risk management, and earned over $1,500 without major investments. “Oleksandr Orlovskyi’s course became a reset point for me. Now I actually understand the market — I’m not just clicking buttons,” the satisfied graduate shares.

Other graduates also speak about their experiences learning with Oleksandr Orlovskyi.

• David, for example, got into crypto completely by chance. Today he earns over $3,000 per month and confidently says, “The team is on fire.”
• Olivia admits she was a complete beginner and very anxious before starting. But thanks to the support of her mentors, she quickly adapted: “They answer every question. The support is strong.”
• Natalie came with a clear request: she needed structured learning, not chaos or scattered bits of info. “I was looking for a system — and I found it. Now I help beginners myself,” she shares.
• Mia remembers how long she hesitated before buying the course, but never regretted it: “The course is structured, the mentors are the real deal. And Oleksandr Orlovskyi is sincere and principled. My intuition didn’t fail me.”

Oleksandr Orlovskyi has said many times: education won’t make you millions out of thin air. But it gives you the tools — and hundreds of people are using them. Some choose trading bots, others go into spot trading, ICOs, or arbitrage. Some prefer to work solo, others automate everything as much as possible.

But all the stories have one thing in common: knowledge + support + willingness to learn = profit.

Recognizing Top Performers

FFA introduced a new tradition at this year’s conference — awarding the most successful traders and investors based on their earnings. More than 100 participants were recognized across seven income categories, ranging from $300 in profits with zero investment to earnings exceeding $50,000.

These results confirm a key principle of crypto investing — it’s possible to generate significant profits even without initial capital, relying solely on knowledge and strategic execution with expert mentorship from FFA.

Raising the Bar for Crypto Education

Beyond expert insights, FFA CRYPTO RISE served as a collaborative platform for traders and investors to discuss strategies, share market trends, and connect with like-minded professionals.

With ambitious plans for future events, FFA has announced a major rebranding — the community will now be known as FFA Level X Club, reflecting its commitment to higher standards of education, mentorship, and networking in the crypto space.

As the cryptocurrency market continues to evolve, knowledge, adaptability, and the right connections remain the key ingredients for success — values that FFA continues to champion through its global events and expert-led educational initiatives. 🚀
