These past 2 years taught me more than anything in my life.
I started with $200 from a part time pizza delivery job. Every paycheck went straight into crypto and I lost most of it trying to figure this shit out.
Every paycheck in turned into nothing.
Learned nothing. Then learned โeverythingโ. Or thatโs what I at least thought
I turned $200 into $1k and thought I understood the game.
I didnโt.
Watched that money go from thousands, hundreds, back to thousands more times than I can count until I finally got a feel for it.
Met people that changed my trajectory.
Fell in love with the game itself, not just the money. The chaos, the volatility.
I wasnโt some TA genius either.
Didnโt know support from resistance.
I was just good at spotting narratives and aping memes early. Locked in at what in good at and didnโt give up.
Turned $200 into 6 figures.
Not because I was the smartest.
Because I refused to leave.
And then of course, after all that character development, discipline, growth, and wisdom
And after all of this i felt like i was unstoppable, just to get humbled immediately.
Held everything in SOL.
Didnโt stable.
Watched it nuke.
Nothing humbles you faster than thinking youโre the main character and then getting absolutely fucked by your own conviction.
All that grinding, all that progress, just for crypto to remind me whoโs actually in charge. Beautiful.
Still here though.
Still playing.
Still learning.
I love this game way too much to leave.
I decided to support BaseApp creators, apps, and other projects building on @Base.
In just one month, Arbase GM reached over 34K players, and I realized I want to help everyone who contributes to the ecosystem in any way. At first, I added tasks for everyone who posted about my app (and I still do), then I started helping other apps grow as well (hi @WhaleGames_en, @BaseUPgame).
Now my app includes several tasks focused on growing other projects โ Iโm literally sending my users to them. This is how I try to support the ecosystem as a whole, so users donโt get stuck in a single app but continue exploring what @baseapp has to offer.
If you work with Base and are interested in collaborating, simply send a message about Arbase GM or me via DM.
