Guiding you into new financial terrain.
About us —
The Veteran Brokerage was founded by Micah Yeackley. He has a degree in mathematics, and retired from the United States Army after over a decade of service as a combat veteran.
In 2014, he read the original Bitcoin Whitepaper and fell in love with the values behind the heart of the movement, and most of all with blockchain technology itself. At its core, blockchain is a public ledger. It’s a financial transaction or storage of data that requires zero trust. It is completely transparent. This technology can hold corporations and institutions’ feet to the fire because it mandates that same transparency. This alone inspired him to dive headfirst into this space, and to learn everything he could about blockchain and cryptocurrency.
Micah began managing cryptocurrency in 2017, and since then The Veteran Brokerage has evolved to become one of the first brokerage firms of its’ kind, dealing exclusively in cryptographic assets. In 2021 we welcomed Eric Good as Cryptographic Asset Manager. With a background in stocks and options, futures, both long and short-term investing, and now Cryptographic assets, Eric brings over 15 years of experience to the table along with a passion to see wealth invested wisely and grow over time.
Today we are a team of brokers and developers with a wide range of strengths and backgrounds across the trading, banking, and fintech spheres. We’re passionate about continuing to learn and evolve along with this newly emerging space, and to guide you through with expert care.
“Bitcoin is the biggest opportunity set we can think of over the next decade.”

About Cryptocurrency —
This is brand new technology. The birth of cryptocurrency and blockchain technology has been equated to the industrial revolution. It’s an extremely exciting moment in history.
As people, companies, and governments strive to be more ecologically and ethically conscious and proactive, blockchain technology allows us to mandate transparency. It is becoming the new way that companies do business across the globe. By participating in this ecosystem, you have a chance to be a part of this moment in history.
It’s easy to feel that even today you might be a little too late, might have missed the boat on this technological wave. It’s helpful to think about it this way: If we compare the cryptocurrency boom to the launch of the internet in the mid-1990s, we’re somewhere around the year 1997 in that cycle. The truth is that we’re still early in the emergence of this era-defining technology. Even now, less than 2% of the population is actually invested in cryptocurrency. We’re witnessing the greatest transfer of wealth in the history of the world, and there is still so much room for growth. We’re excited to offer a simple and secure way to be a part of this monumental movement.
