I got into BTC 10 or 11 years ago
I mined and traded BTC, invested heavily into the new altcoin: Namecoin, and lost out to the collapse of 7 different exchanges, Cryptsy took the most.
I wrote for an evil corporation, I helped start their newspaper to boost moral and it was great until the realized that I was almost never there and when I was I was too busy solving dollar store puzzles to do any actual work.
I didn't know anyone when I got here.
First three months were awful, lonely as fuck, the only people that would talk to me were Chinese and somehow I managed to piss them off, then I found out there was steemit.chat, who new?
I started to look up to this angry trucker guy, but then he told me that he wrote something that I would love, but it was some graphic deviant sex story that creeped me out so bad that I think I hate him even to this day. Seriously, why the fuck did he single me out for that shit!?
Steemit/Hive changed my life by allowing me to meet Sarah, she was new around the same time as me and we ended up getting married and now I live in the UK with her.
Favorite memory was the wedding.
My advice, don't try to please everyone, just be yourself and never read romantic novels written by asshole truckers.
