got into crypto in 2022
right when the war kicked off here in Ukraine
> one morning on FEB 24th woke up frozen, couldn’t even move for the first 15 mins while hearing rockets outside, panic, apathy
> was a waiter pulling avg $1.5k/month, had a now-useless Master’s in solar energy and only communication skill with little of english
> lil HIMARS with no job (offline work wasn’t exactly safe anymore, still not safe at all)
> started grinding WLs right before the FTX (fck ya Sam, still first stimmy on FTX, enjoy shitposting)
> first mint ever was SkateX on Solana, which should be crypto game, s/o to @jave_gg & @MatDefies for being huge part of my journey here
> took loan from friend at SOL 120$ to mint NFTs together, we held like a true degen believing it would pump forever, we sold some at SOL $40
(later printed bcs we had GA of Overworld WLs there)
> SkateX actually showed me where I wanted to go
> from there it was pure degen arc, farming Discords: “Hi I’m from Fake DAO, gib WL”
> then went full crypto gaming mode, built & hosted 12 huge tourneys + over 500 game nights/events (I stopped counting), worked in 4 crypto gaming companies
> now thinking where want to move
> rest is history
