Anthony Di Iorio: ‘The Time has come for me to focus on my Businesses’

Anthony Di Iorio, the founder of the Bitcoin Alliance of Canada (BAC), has resigned from its position as Executive Director and member of the Board to focus on his businesses. He will continue to help support the organization in an advisory position.
“I believe I’ve done my share of community building over the past 2 years with the BAC and doing the weekly Toronto Bitcoin Meetups, which I’ll be continuing,” said Di Iorio in a conversation with CoinTelegraph.
In 2012, Di Iorio founded the Bitcoin Alliance of Canada, a non-profit organization “dedicated to raising awareness of Bitcoin among Canadian consumers, merchants and policy makers.” Di Iorio widely contributed to the growth ofCanada’s Bitcoin community, notably through the founding of the Alliance, as well as the Toronto Bitcoin Meetup. He was also responsible for successfully organizing Canada’s first Bitcoin conference, Bitcoin Expo 2014, which occurred last April in Toronto.
Going back through his achievements at the BAC, Di Iorio stated:
“My greatest accomplishment was organizing and funding the Bitcoin Expo 2014 earlier this year, with 100% of the profits going back to the Alliance. We raised 80 BTC for the Alliance. These funds will be very useful in spreading Bitcoin awareness throughout Canada.”
After two years of devotion, Di Iorio has stepped down from his position as Executive Director and member of the Board at the BAC light-hearted, but still with a small regret:
