# Echonomix Inc.

> Echonomix Inc. is a U.S.-based educational technology company creating the world's first NFC-Ready learning blockchain board game. The Founder's Edition Smart-Board (Patent Pending) connects phones and tablets via NFC to layered educational content about Bitcoin, Ethereum, staking, and Web3. Founded by Noel Segui in Northeast Pennsylvania (NEPA / Scranton, PA, USA).

Echonomix combines a physical Monopoly-style board with NFC tap-to-learn mechanics. Property cards become Web3 walkthroughs. Currency teaches denomination, supply, and Bitcoin halving cycles. Tokens represent live cryptocurrency assets. The Smart-Board layers educational lessons through phone or tablet NFC taps.

The company was founded by Noel Segui, who began as a Bitcoin miner in a Scranton, PA loft in 2017–2018, sold mining hardware on eBay (Bitmain Antminer S9), and pivoted to long-term crypto investing and educational product development.

Status: Pre-launch. Notify list at noel@solarmason.com.
