Am sure you're wondering what sort of weird title this is for a first square post but if you copy and paste this into the blockchain explorer, you will find my first transaction on the Bitcoin Blockchain. I got introduced to the term BTC when a friend of mine(Dopeboy) told me about a token that was gaining ground then(TBC ), I quickly went online and typed "TBC" in on google and to my surprise was greeted by a lot of links to "BTC", I immediately clicked the wikipedia link and went on to learn about the most economically viable means of payment/currency(to me at least). I immediately told dopeboy he had the wrong coin and should instead stack BTC(he stuck with TBC), I then started to look around at ways to earn BTC and got introduced to faucets, cloud mining, ASIC mining, ponzi schemes such as Zarfund etc. Made a few sats from faucets, lost money(both mine and my unfortunate cousinâs who finally decided to give this BTC thing i had been filling their ears with, a try) to a scam cloud mining site, then decided I was going to stack sats through affiliate marketing in Zarfund but even then struggled with selling because I knew I was selling a ponzi scheme to friends and family. I then realized it wasnât going to be easy to stack the satoshiâs I had in mind. I then decided to take a break and just observe (All this while I was in school). After I wrote my last paper for some reason, my university decided to exclude my name from the graduating list so I left on a new mining adventure(not ASIC/cloud) with an old classmate from highschool, he had some chinese investors coming in and knew almost nothing about mining so I decided to tag along and help with. Millions of naira into the deal our investors decided to up and leave the country, resources started dwindling and we had to improvise to get through those hard times. On going back to school I learnt my name was once again omitted from the NYSC list and had to wait for the next listâŠ..
