As an advocate of cryptocurrencies and blockchain, he created the educational youtube channel, "Hasheur" in 2016. In May 2017, he founded the fintech Just Mining with his brother William Simonin, to make investing in cryptocurrency mining accessible and offer investment solutions (staking, masternodes). At the end of 2017, he released a video, "the scam of the century"[3] to denounce BitConnect, a ponzi scheme that collapsed a few months later[4][5][6]. In 2018, he criticizes the Minister of Economy, Bruno Lemaire in a video[7] that calls out the factual errors made by the person concerned during an interview on bitcoin. His response is widely taken up and praised on the networks[8]. In 2018, he co-founded Deskoin, a French cryptocurrency exchange platform, which in 2019 became a partner of the software publisher Global POS allowing more than 25,000 physical points of sale, to accept payment in cryptocurrencies[9][10]. From 2017 to 2021, he communicates as during the TedX Rive de Moselle[11], and joins the projects Waltio (taxation of cryptomoins), Ngrave (hardware wallet), Cruxpool (mining pool), and Ternoa (blockchain). In 2021, his two companies Just Mining and Deskoin are registered as a Service Provider on Digital Assets (PSAN) with the Autorité des marchés financiers (France)[12] under the matricules E2021-016 and E2021-017. He also collaborates with Idriss Aberkane, Alexandre Dreyfus, Pierre Person, Romain Lanery, YohViral, and Amixem[13].
