My name is Christian, I have been using crypto for online purchases since 2014. But only in February I started reading and learning about crypto currency trading and mining. I applied for a credit card and kept learning about indicators, charts, patterns, price action, exchanges etc. After reviewing some of the most prominent exchanges on the web, I decided Binance was the best one for me.
My family was curious about crypto, and I took the mission of explaining them how they work and how they are traded. My 39 years old brother had traded FOREX and stocks before, and was warning me about possibly losing everything. After a couple of hours I was able to convince him that crypto exchanges don't really work like traditional exchanges. And I did all this with Binance. I showed him how you could purchase crypto and withdraw it to your liking, successfully proving that there is no liquidation or futures in these systems, and you don't lose anything if you don't sell the coin below the purchase price. Nowadays I frequently catch him reading about crypto, and I guess he is really considering to start trading. It was more of a challenge with my mother and father (56 and 71 years respectively), but I ended up being supported by everyone, and they actually even gifted me with some money to start my trading adventure.
Two months later when my credit card was issued, I instantly bought some Bitcoins and transferred them on my Binance account. The volume at the time was astonishing, the prices had just started to rise and I was ready for my beginnings in the crypto world as a trader. Binance consisted in a very straightforward exchange, with it's simple and advanced system, it was very clear to me what to do and how to play it. I had been studying coins and tokens for awhile now. I had selected a few that had real purpose and could really help me build a nice capital, through long term hold or short term trades. One of these coins was our beloved BNB. I really liked the idea of coin burning, it showed me that Binance was a serious exchange, that valued healthy trading over fake volume and quick profits. I studied the BNB chart for awhile, and I noticed a possible ascending triangle. I quickly bought BNB with all the BTC I had, and just after two days I made +20% profit.
After about a month of using Binance and +50% of my initial capital I wrote to the Binance Facebook page. I had an idea about the BNB that Binance wants to buy back for burning. I suggested creating a merchandise shop, where t-shirts, hoodies, mugs with the Binance logo would be sold, just for BNB!!! The person that responded to me was very kind, and apparently praised my idea. I am confident CZ and the other guys at Binance are thinking about such a possibility, meanwhile they created this contest, where the winner would get a Binance hoodie (and 5BNB). I was ecstatic because I finally found a contest where traded volume or crypto wealth isn't important. But the contest's judges will probably value the dedication and desire to write a long and elaborate story about Binance. I have always loved Literature and similar classes when I was in high school. Even if years have passed, I am confident this might be a good story for the competition.
Can't wait to wear that awesome hoodie (hope they can ship it to Albania), but until then, I'll be on Binance trading and hoping the market might wake up and start a nice bull run. To whoever is reading this story, I wish you lots of profitable trades and a really good day!!!
Take care,
Chris.
