So I've been doing some background work and digging. Obviously the Hive Blockchain was going to be the very first one I tried, but I also found Kaichi, which was different in so many ways to Hive but a really nice opportunity.
So I go into what I did to get started on this challenge. I'm going to explore way more than this of course! That $1000 I don't think is going to come easy.
Hope you enjoy my journey!
