Hello crypto-world!
Someone asking me how I got to Bitcoin... And then it make remember those days!
Well, arriving to Hong Kong I was expecting to get a full-time job... During the first year after lots of applications sent I realised it couldn't be easy. Then I began to look for additional ways to create income, thinking to see any sustainible income after some 10 years of learning something new.
In 2016 I began almost accidentally in buying shares in the Hong Kong Stock Market, just clicking my bank account in my phone. From there, I realise I needed to learn about how to 'read' charts, buy, sell, etc. Later I got to the forex. I did not much time it. I began to listen about Bitcoin, when it arrives to my ears it was under the 1000 USD, (750 USD and in a matter of weeks it passed the 1000 USD). I was scare to enter there as it looked kind of complicated to get the value of in fiat. I enter with some monies (I got it doing boring captchas)... And then it made me explote my head. Maybe the moment I entered in was like crazy, 1 dollar became 2 very easy...
Just in the pick I put more money, even my credit card i used. Bad luck, it looked like began to live a nightmare, everything began to go down, and down and down. It was a difficult time 2018 and part of 2019. I withdraw the last coins on summer 2018, as no income for vacation. Beginning income again I began to put back my coins.
Little by little I finished to pay my bank loan and my credit card. But I passed some days with almost nothing.
Ambiance began to change by 2019. My feeling was that if I don't put the maximum now I will regret it. I was already beginning on projects of staking. My great investment was ADA. I put a loan (again), with fears but I did it. And it was my best investment.
I put out most of ADA in some moment to get another opportunity (KUBIC and WOOP) which made me a very nice Xs. Unfortunately I got hacked and most of my gain of the year flew away of my wallet. Sad to see how numbers are going over another wallet. Since then I practically stop to use Metamask.
For now I am still surviving, and very optimistic that better time is coming for the ecosystem. I am discovering too much things about Hive ecosystem, which I think will looks great in the next bull market.
I don't know how long will take this low price, but I think it is a moment to put little by little in different projects. In addition, I am trying to take advantage of bogging in Hive.
I found a drawing (in one of my old notebooks) of my first learnings about charts (July 2016, the little time I tried to do forex).
What about you? Did it take you long to enter in Bitcoin, Hive, Web3? How did you began over here?
Thank you for reading!
