About Mike Pirie

Mike is the founder of CryptoEase with Mike, the #1 Crypto Passive Income Community on Skool. He focuses on crypto passive income for busy moms and dads lying awake at night wondering how they’ll fund their kids’ future -and their own freedom.He’s been in crypto since 2020. He went full‑time, learned the hard way through brutal market cycles, and-like many honest builders-returned to a 9‑to‑5 while rebuilding something real, sustainable, and grounded in trust.After three decades in technology, cybersecurity, and consulting (including leadership roles at Microsoft), Mike brings a risk‑first, systems mindset to decentralized finance. His work focuses on helping everyday families recover from bad crypto experiences and replace speculation with disciplined, repeatable on‑chain income strategies.Publicly, his mission is simple:Make crypto passive income understandable, safer, and useful for real people-not traders, not hype‑chasers.Behind the scenes, Mike is also conducting ongoing research into how the same core principles-risk controls, automation, transparency, and process-can be translated for higher‑net‑worth individuals and family offices seeking yield without abandoning prudence. Different scale. Same foundations.He believes the future of wealth won’t be passive or “set‑and‑forget.” It will reward those who combine wisdom, research, and adaptability.You can find all of Mike’s content, frameworks, proof, and money‑generating tactics free on yt-no obligation.Yes, he offers premium services for those who want to go faster and deeper. From as little as $8/mo - or a fancy coffee in the USA. Heck you cant even get a decent burger for that these days!No, you don’t need to spend a dollar to benefit from what he teaches on his YT channel.His guiding belief remains unchanged:We’re all going to make it-together.WAGMIT– Mike
