A few days ago, my son told me something that, honestly, made me think more than I expected. And what made me think has a lot to do with my own beginning in the crypto world, which, to be honest, I am just starting!
He was playing a Roblox game called Grow a Garden, where basically you have to plant fruits, flowers, and vegetables to sell them, earn coins, and reinvest in your own garden. The classic. But what caught my attention was not the game itself, but what he experienced as soon as he started playing.
Thirty minutes later, when he was still planting carrots and trying to understand how everything worked, a random player, without saying anything, approached and gifted him a plant worth more than 52 trillion of the game's currency. Crazy. With that, he was able to buy upgrades, rare seeds, pets, and progress at a speed that would normally take weeks.
The incredible thing is that this person asked for nothing in return. He didn't know him. He hadn't spoken to him. He simply saw someone starting out and decided to help him.
Since then, my son not only got hooked on the game, but he also felt grateful and motivated to keep progressing, and one day do the same for another new player.
💡 And that’s when it clicked for me...
This is not so different from the crypto world!
This is not so different from what happens in the crypto world, and I say this from my own experience. I am also just starting in this fascinating universe, with many doubts, a little fear, and sometimes not knowing exactly what to do with my first wallet.
For someone like me, who is just starting out, a small help can mean a lot. A couple of dollars in USDT, a fraction of ETH, a symbolic donation of BTC... what might not move the needle for someone experienced can be the push that connects a beginner like me to this ecosystem forever.
Many times we think that to help someone you need to be a millionaire, create foundations, or run huge campaigns. But no. Sometimes it is enough to see those who are starting, have empathy, and share a little of what you already have.
🎁 Generosity is decentralized (and I hope to receive a bit of it)
Just as that Roblox player completely changed my son's experience with a single gesture, we can also do it in real life, from our wallets. And yes, I would love for someone with more experience to help me like that.
Blockchain is not only useful for exchanging value. It is also a way to distribute opportunities.
A small transfer can spark curiosity, motivation, or even give meaning to a path that was about to be abandoned. Because what impacts the most, in the end, is not the amount... but the moment it arrives.
And as my son told me after sharing everything:
> "When I am stronger, I will also give something big to someone starting from scratch."
I wish we all thought a little more like this. And if someone reads this and feels the spirit of that Roblox player, let me know in the comments!
