Meet Luca Creed | Blockrise Founder & Professor

We had the good fortune of connecting with Luca Creed and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Luca, what was your thought process behind starting your own business?
The thought process behind starting Blockrise came from a mix of passion, frustration, and a genuine desire to build something meaningful—not just for myself, but for others. I’ve always believed that the financial system as we know it is built to keep most people in the dark. Crypto changed that for me. It gave me freedom, flexibility, and the power to grow my income on my terms. Once I started seeing real success from trading and creating meme coins, I knew I was sitting on something bigger than just personal wins—I had something teachable. Something I could pass on.

When I first got into crypto, it was overwhelming. The internet is filled with too much noise—confusing terms, scammy signals groups, fake “gurus,” and no real structure. I kept thinking, why isn’t there a simple, honest place where people can learn how to trade, how to build, and how to grow their income through crypto—without having to be an expert or lose money to trial and error? That’s when the idea of Blockrise came to life.

I started Blockrise with one mission: to educate and empower people to create real, lasting value through crypto. Whether it’s learning how to trade smartly, how to spot trends before they explode, or even how to launch your own meme coin from scratch—everything I teach is based on my personal journey and strategies that have actually worked for me. This isn’t some recycled YouTube advice. It’s the same game plan I used to make real money, and I’m handing it to my members because I want them to win too.

Building this business also gave me something more important than money—it gave me purpose. I get DMs from people every week telling me how Blockrise gave them confidence, how they made their first trade, how they’re finally understanding the crypto world. That right there? That’s what fuels me. Knowing that someone out there is gaining financial freedom because of what I started? That’s priceless.

Blockrise is more than just a course or a Discord server—it’s a movement. A community. A place where people who were never taken seriously in traditional finance finally have a voice, a shot, and a support system to grow. I’m not selling dreams—I’m teaching skills. Real ones. And I’m just getting started.

If you’ve ever felt like crypto is too confusing, too risky, or too out of reach—Blockrise is for you. Because I’ve been where you are, and I built this to be the bridge to where you want to go.

What should our readers know about your business?
When I first started BlockriseLLC, it was just me and a simple belief: crypto trading shouldn’t feel like gambling. Most people enter this space overwhelmed by charts, jargon, and empty promises of overnight riches. I wanted to change that by creating education that actually empowers – no hype, no shady signals, just clear strategies that work in the real world.

The beginning wasn’t glamorous. With no audience and no track record, convincing people to trust a new platform was the hardest part. That’s why I’ll always be grateful to my first student, Imer Tetove, who took that leap of faith when Blockrise was just starting. His willingness to learn and implement our strategies proved this could work – not just in theory, but in actual market conditions.

What makes Blockrise different is our relentless focus on understanding over blind following. While others sell dreams of Lambos, we teach how markets really move. Our core philosophy is simple: master risk first, profits follow. I’m most proud of the moments when students message me saying they finally “get it” – that shift from confusion to confidence is why we do this.

The journey taught me that real growth happens gradually. There were no viral moments or shortcuts – just consistent refinement of our courses, constant learning, and an unwavering commitment to delivering actual value. The biggest lesson? Trust is earned one student at a time.

Today, Blockrise stands for something important in the noisy crypto space: education that respects people’s intelligence and time. We’re not here to shout about the next 100x coin, but to build traders who can navigate markets with skill and discipline. Because at the end of the day, the greatest investment you can make in crypto isn’t in any token – it’s in yourself.

To anyone feeling lost in crypto: the learning curve is steep, but it’s worth climbing. And we’re here to help you every step of the way. That’s the Blockrise promise.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
We’d hit the ground running with dinner at STK Steakhouse downtown, where the energy is electric and every bite feels like a celebration. Picture this: a sleek, modern space with a DJ setting the vibe while we dive into truffle fries and lobster mac before the main event – their perfectly seared dry-aged ribeye, medium-rare with garlic butter, paired with an STK Old Fashioned that’s smooth enough to make the whole night feel cinematic.

After rolling out of STK in the best possible food coma, we’d make our way to Garrett Popcorn for their legendary Chicago Mix – that sweet-and-salty caramel cheddar combo that somehow just works. Then it’s off to Millennium Park for that obligatory Bean selfie under the city lights, because you can’t come to Chicago and not do it.

The next morning, we’re going full tourist mode with deep-dish at Lou Malnati’s – that buttery crust loaded with cheese and sausage is basically edible Chicago pride. Then we’d head up to 360 CHICAGO at the Hancock Building, where we’d sip cocktails while the city stretches out below us, and maybe even brave the TILT experience if we’re feeling bold (or just want an excuse to cling to each other while the city literally tilts beneath our feet).

We’d spend Day 3 soaking up the riverfront – coffee by the Chicago Riverwalk followed by an architecture boat tour (yes, it’s touristy, but it’s also the absolute best way to really see the city). As the sun starts to dip, we’d head to Cindy’s Rooftop for spritz cocktails with a skyline view that’ll make your Instagram followers jealous.

No Chicago trip is complete without Wrigleyville, so on Day 4 we’re catching a Cubs game (even if they’re not playing, the energy there is contagious). After the game, it’s tacos and whiskey at Big Star followed by speakeasy-style cocktails at The Violet Hour, where the drinks are as mysterious as the unmarked entrance.

We’d balance out all that indulgence with a culture day – hitting the Art Institute (Ferris Bueller style, obviously) before dinner at The Purple Pig, where Mediterranean small plates and natural wine make for the perfect prelude to an evening of live jazz at The Green Mill, a historic spot that’s been serving up smooth tunes since the 1900s.

For our second-to-last day, we’d explore Chicago’s neighborhoods – starting with brunch at Dove’s Luncheonette in Wicker Park, then vintage shopping along Milwaukee Avenue before ending up in Logan Square at Longman & Eagle for whiskey flights and that perfect dive-bar-but-make-it-cool vibe.

And for our grand finale? We’re going full Chicago essentials: a ketchup-free Chicago-style hot dog from Portillo’s (because breaking that rule is sacrilege) followed by a night of blues at Buddy Guy’s Legends, where the music is raw, real, and everything this city’s soul is about.

By the end of the week, we’d be equal parts exhausted and exhilarated, full of incredible food, unforgettable views, and that distinct Chicago energy that stays with you long after you’ve left. And we’d definitely need about three days of sleep to recover – but every single bite, drink, and moment would be worth it.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
Every big journey starts with a single step, and for BlockriseLLC, that step was Imer Tetove. When I first launched this crypto education platform, it was just an idea—a belief that trading shouldn’t feel like a mystery. Then came Imer, my first student, the one who took a chance on me before there was any proof this would work.

That kind of trust is rare. Crypto is full of noise, and most people wait to see results before they commit. But Imer didn’t. He dove in, learned the strategies, applied them, and most importantly—he believed in the vision. That early faith was everything. It kept me going when things were uncertain, and it reminded me why Blockrise exists: to cut through the hype and give people real, actionable knowledge.

So this is for you, Imer. Thank you for being the first. The one who made this real. Blockrise wouldn’t be here without you.

And to everyone else—if you’ve been waiting for the right moment to learn crypto the right way, maybe this is your sign. The first move is always the hardest, but it’s the one that changes everything.
