The story of a barista who accidentally became a crypto millionaire
Imagine this: a regular guy named Ivan works as a barista in Lviv. Every day he brews coffee, listens to customer conversations, and dreams of traveling.
In 2021, he overheard a regular customer excitedly telling a friend about some "crypto that will change the world" — the coin was called Shiba Inu (SHIB). That day, Ivan, not fully understanding what it was about, tossed 500 hryvnias into it "just for fun," because he really wanted to feel like an "investor."
A few months later, he completely forgot about it. Until the moment at the beginning of 2024 when he decided to check that same wallet.
💥 And what did he see?
His 500 hryvnias had turned into $212,000.
On that same day, he quit his job at the café and set off on a journey he had dreamed of since childhood — hitchhiking through Italy.
But this story isn’t about wealth. In Italy, Ivan met startup founders who were working on blockchain solutions for copyright protection. He became fascinated by this idea, began to learn, invested part of his money in their project — and today he is not just “that lucky guy,” but the founder of his own Web3 startup.
