I bought steem on polo a couple weeks ago. At that time I only knew a little about it. I learned about it. And it's price dropped a good bit. So I signed up and transferred my steem here and powered up. Where it can do something for me. The price went up which is good in the long run. I first heard of crypto during Ron Paul campaign on a website called thedailypaul. A lot of the Ron Paul supporters were and probably still are very knowledgeable about cryptos. But it was too hard to get into back then. So a couple months ago I started re reading up on it and I went to a btc atm a couple hundred miles from where I live, still the closest one. And I managed to get a couple bitcoins when it was a little above a grand. A little later than I would have liked, but early enough. I didn't get as invested as I could though which I regret. I am still buying bits and pieces when I make it to Las Vegas, but the price has almost rise above my ability to invest. At least I have steemit now! I'm going to be buying some steem and turning it to steem power when I get more money. So I. Can help shape and build this great little thing into what it deserves to be. Sorry that was so long. I got sidetracked typing, and don't want to cut anything out. Thanks for helping the minnows like me out. And good luck steeming sir

Your post reminds me of my other failed first attempt at getting BTC. I'll try to remember to let you know when I post it.@drpuffnstuff, lol I bought my first bitcoins at an ATM in Henderson, is that where you got yours, or are there other ATM's in the area.
I've been to that one if it's at a gas station in a questionable part of town. There's like 15 btc ATMs around Vegas actually. It's the closest place I can go to get some. Looking forward to seeing your post!
Nope this one was in Henderson. I used to live in vegas '67 to '72 and was back there for the first time just this January . Whoa, has it changed. I was staying with relatives and I told them I wanted to go visit our old house. At the time a nice area. He told me I could probably go, just not at night and be aware!
Great post. I think Ron Paul is a Gandalf-level guided wisdom launcher for those with an open mind. Too bad the stupider voices drowned him out. Such is politics though! Have a STEEM and I think you will find this platform in-line with the principles of liberty and free speech.
Thanks. And yes he was the only politician who I consider a hero. He opened my eyes to a whole perspective that had been hidden from me forever in school. And to this day there is very little he said that I don't disagree with. But yes once again, thanks. Look forward to your future posts. Take care
