This view always bothered me and is the most common reason people don't stay. The write a blog and even if it gets $40, they go 'that's not even equal to 1-hour salary at work! and it took 2 hours to write, fuck this'.

Nobody understands how value here works. Like I've just watched my account casually go from $9,000 to $12,000 as the markets creep up in value. It's hardly impossible that goes to $25-$30,000.

At the end of the day, it's simply because people don't enjoy blogging, inherently. It's just not fun or interesting. I happen to like it though, so I stick around, and now people are jealous that I have $25,000+ in various places of crypto I earned 100% by writing words on a computer once in a while.

I might have instead watched a TV show every time, or gone fishing, and earned $0 in the same period. If you enjoy it, doesn't matter.
