Hello, I am @jacuzzi, born in the USA but living in Vietnam now.
My first exposure to cryptocurrency was when I was working in a video game company.
This had to be at least two or 3 years before the big crypto boom happened. I worked as a concept artist,
My boss his name is Lucas, he had a mining rig setup in the office. He had it set up so every time he mine a Bitcoin it would make a cash register noise.
That thing would chhing once or twice a day I remember. One time ask him about what he was doing and he gave me an explanation that confused the hell out of me... But got me thinking.
Years later I dove into crypto, and... Kicked my self for not learning more back then lol.
Lucas is now happily retired somewhere last I heard. Myself I'm just trying to rock and roll and catch the next wave before it passes.
:)
