My Journey in Crypto: Part 1
Back in the summer of 2017, one of my former workers from my offline business visited my house and mentioned he had information that bitcoin would rise to $25,000 by the end of the year.
He claimed his brother and some other guys paid to obtain this insight. He offered to invest in his newly created fund or simply buy some BTC and take it as friendly advice.
The reason I didn’t take this seriously was that the guy had been short on money for a long time, experiencing hard times and struggling to stay in Asia where he came to start his new life. So, I thought he was just looking for a way to make some quick money. That was the first time I underestimated someone close to me.
Of course, it was a coincidence that BTC went up to $27,000 in December 2017, and I don’t believe anyone could have known for sure that this would happen. Nevertheless, it was a strange feeling mixed with FOMO. Perhaps, later on, I will write more about that guy, but that year proved to be life-changing for him.
So, at this point, I started to delve deeper and learn more about crypto, blockchain, and altcoins.
What year did you enter the world of crypto?
