The first time I truly came into contact with the virtual currency industry was in 2018. At that time, I was still working at a bank as a client manager, drinking and socializing every day. After the Spring Festival in 2018, I organized a drinking party. It wasn't very formal since I was quite familiar with the clients, so everyone brought their own friends. This is the culture of drinking parties; everyone exchanges contacts, you know.
After sitting down, because there were unfamiliar people, everyone started to introduce themselves: I work at XX Bank, I am from this bureau, I am from this company, and so on. When it was time for one person, he stood up and introduced himself in a very soft voice saying, "My name is XX, and I work in blockchain." After he finished speaking, everyone clearly paused. It wasn't that this person looked particularly strange; at that time, I assessed him. He was not tall, had a buzz cut, and dressed plainly, I would say he was quite unremarkable. I think, including myself, no one really knew what he meant by "blockchain." During the meal, he hardly interacted with everyone.
After the meal, as I was sending off the leader at the door, he was smoking outside. I didn't see him call a taxi or call a driver, so I went up to exchange contact information with him and asked him where he lived. I can give you a ride. He politely declined, saying he had called a driver. After a while, a Range Rover drove over, and he waved to me and got in the car. I looked at the back of the car, deep in thought.
The next time we met was in 2019. I participated in a card game and saw him again; haha, the circle of friends is that small (later I will find out that it was fate's arrangement). We exchanged a few pleasantries before starting to play cards. That day his luck was bad, and he lost tens of thousands. After this meeting, everyone became more familiar and we chatted quite well. I also took the opportunity to ask some questions about Bitcoin and learned that it could make money.
After meeting a few more times for card games, I noticed that his characteristic when playing cards was a lack of restraint. No matter how much he won initially, it always ended with losses. One night, after dinner and a few drinks, I asked him: Brother X, why do you always end up losing it back? He said: It's okay, as long as I don't lose more than 40,000 yuan in a day, I haven't really lost money. At that moment, I realized that his daily income was at least 40,000 yuan.
Time flies, and days passed like this. I continued to muddle through in the financial industry, trying to maintain what seemed like a decent income. By the end of 2019 and the beginning of 2020, a friend from my circle told me: Momoda, there is a batch of mining machines that are doing well, over 50,000. How about we each invest 100,000, and we will recoup our investment in six months? To be honest, even though I had met many people in the currency circle and could feel that this thing could make money, due to my work, I had seen many wealthy people, and not everyone rich could sway me. I always thought this was an ethereal thing. How do you mine? What do you get from mining? How do you sell it? How long can this industry last? I knew nothing. Later, I asked Brother X, and he also advised me not to do this and just focus on my job. I thought, where is it more stable than my job? It felt like a Ponzi scheme, haha... At that time, I even had a particularly dirty mindset; I felt they were trying to lure me in to take my money...
By the end of 2020, I could clearly feel that this thing could indeed make money. Friends around me who had entered the circle earlier had recouped their investments in as little as three months (because the production was halved that year; I will have a chance to explain this later). I saw my friends making money in this circle, and the risks I had previously considered no longer existed. I could finally sit still and told Brother X: Brother X, I want to invest a bit. He still said, forget it, don't buy, the risk is still quite high, and your investment is really not worth the effort.
At that time, I was determined to do this, so I arranged a drinking party to set up Brother X. Life is full of coincidences; the door of fate suddenly opened for me. I brought my wife to this drinking party (ahem, don't think too much, it's not what you think). My wife recognized him at a glance and said, WX, do you remember me? Brother X glanced and thought for a moment and said he knew her. I was left there with a head full of question marks '????'.
It turned out that Brother X had found my wife a loan a few years ago (my wife also works at a bank; she does retail while I do corporate). It was over 1.4 million yuan, and that loan was quite difficult; he had been rejected by several banks. My wife's bank approved it. My wife is quite outgoing; at the drinking table, she said to Brother X: WX, the startup capital you earned is from my loan, you must help my husband.
Finally, in December 2020, I boarded the virtual currency train, which led to a series of controversies, with happiness and disappointment; it helped me grow and changed my life.
