RE: What's your story? How did you get into Crypto? Any tips?

in #crypto8 years ago

I first learned Bitcoin a few years back while playing ESO talking with a friend in teamspeak. He told me about mining and how he was building a few rigs to see what happens. I was off a good pint of Don Julio and pretty much annihilated, so pretty much everything he was saying was annoying me and the rest i forgot lol.
Maybe a year to 1.5 years ago I was browsing newly downloaded TOR just to see some crazy stuff and everything i came across required BTC as payement, but never thought to buy any.
Fast forward d to the beginning of the year, my coworker who is doomsdayer and conspiracy theorist had been hounding me into buying silver and gold because our almight dollar will soo be worth nada. Well he came to work one day completely turned around asking about the cryptos and what i know about them
I began looking into them and when i saw the first $20 increase in 1 day I had to be in

Sort:  

I once thought about buying into silver and gold. Not because our currencies will be worth nada but it was a solid investment. I'm glad I didn't because crypto is a far easier investment and simple to swap into hard cash if really needed.

A little of everything is always a wise move, especially when the electricity goes off.

Very true - I have a slice of the pie in several projects now. Some that don't involve crypto but crypto has enable me to do so!

I am glad that i bought a nice chunk of silver and gold to sit on...actually silver spot price is down a little today its down to 16 and some change so i may buy some more just to add to my stash. But you are def right cryptos are far easier to buy sell and trade that metals in hand. I love looking in my crypto wallets and seeing the price going up day to day lol
