I started Crypto in 2016, stayed through all cycles so far, and remain active.
Here’s my story of lessons learned and survival in the space.
Traded my first BTC on LocalBitcoins (P2P) in 2016, driven by belief and excitement, like free money.
ZARFund profits led to XRP purchase in 2017 at $0.0078 via Poloniex. Also used @LunoGlobal for trading, card and bank transfer purchases, despite high fees.
I slowed down after the ZARFund crash through 2019–2020, but by 2021, I was fully back again. The BSC meme season pulled me back in.
I recall doing P2P with @OdiCrypt in 2020 via Abit Trader during the Tatacoin days, one of the first African-led P2P crypto projects then . It didn’t all moon but I saw the movement growing, learned and engaged.
Knew about Cardano through a senior in Cyprus back 2021.
I began minting NFTs on https://t.co/WqKZF5oXe6 and diving into the tech.
I remember reading @nmkr_io whitepapers, @Padierfind inspired me and I connected with the Cult Cardano Community. Now, 75% of my holdings are $ADA, making me a Cardano maxi.
Now I’m fully in Web3.
I trade, farm testnets, join presales, Yap, interact with real DeFi tools, and teach others in my small group.
I have built skills, taken Ls, helped others and I’m still evolving in the space.
@dangambardello I agree with you and since I read the news I became restless.
Why Tap tools ?
They have built and delivered.
But the questions remain why no support from CF and the rest including @IOGroup
Now the community should brace up for more shutdowns 😭
This comments of you always mentioning Innovation & Growth DAO on Cardano has come across my feeds a lot and sometimes I ask myself what’s the job of @IOGroup and CF?
Haven’t the community been extracted enough or until we see cardano:native trading below $0.01?
@jasonappleton This may be a wake-up call for all those who think we don't need DAOs.
Innovation & Growth DAO can support ecosystem growth. Everyone will benefit from the users.
Big news: we've partnered with the Brazilian Olympic Committee (@timebrasil) to transform Olympic sport with public blockchain, IoT, and AI.
The three-year roadmap aims to position COB as the global benchmark in sports innovation.
The best part? It's all powered by Cardano. ⚡️
