Greeting and welcome to this story. I hope that this finds you well. As I am writing this there is the smell of tacos in the air. A sense of peace and hunger. What I want to bring to light is the journey I have, and am still, navigating throughout my new life. This new life was brought about by a paper. A single paper that I wrote for an entry level economics course. This paper was written in 2015 on this new currency called DASH (formally Darkcoin). This paper looked into how this currency where the level of anon was higher than both BTC and ETH, at the time.
This is where my life came to change.
It started slowly with abnormalities like saying dyor and hodl...
This is a lie. It started with Tron and BINANCE trading over a VPN while also playing massive amounts of slots with my earning on Tron. This was my 2015, sophomore year of college. I never told anyone what I was doing until now. I was diving into the forefront of the blockchain technology. My first P2E experience other than gambling was FishBank.io. If you do not know what that is; it is axies but with fish. I still hodl 4 of these fish along with ethermon and Knight's Story items. This is my bag. The real worth at our present age in blockchain is the history. So fuck the clout chasing apes.
Fast forwarding to the end of my college career I had almost forgotten about nfts and crypto. Then Dapper labs came out with NBA topshot. This dragged me back out of the based world and into the real world. The world of blockchain and art. I made a living off TopShot that first year. Felt like the wild west again as more and more P2E games were made and/or promised. I was living a decent life but slowly drifted away from everyone.
I was in a cycle. Working a job; buying nfts and crypto; gaming to earn and then quitting that job to move to another minimum wage torture. Granted I have a degree in business marketing, but that world seemed dull and grey to me. So I opted to try and beat the 9 to 5 world with my blockchain obsession.
