Read the Bitcoin whitepaper in 2013 and my mind was blown. The idea of trustless, permissionless money was revolutionary. Been down the rabbit hole ever since.

Honestly? A friend showed me his 10x gains on Dogecoin and I wanted in. Started as a degen, stayed for the technology lol.

Privacy concerns about the banking system. I don't want anyone knowing what I spend my money on. Bitcoin fixes this.

Got into Bitcoin in 2017 right before the crash. Lost 80% of my portfolio. But I held through 2018-2020 and came out way ahead. Pain is the best teacher.

NFTs brought me in during 2021. Lost money on JPEGs but learned about DeFi and smart contracts in the process. Now I'm a full-time crypto degen and I love it.

Got into Bitcoin in 2017 after watching Andreas Antonopoulos talks on YouTube. The rabbit hole is real - once you understand sound money, you cannot unsee it. Best financial decision I ever made.

Only got into crypto last year during the AI hype. Started with ETH, now I am deep into DeFi and learning about Bitcoin Layer 2s. Wish I started earlier but better late than never.
