The uncle in the currency circle who started to speculate in 2017, sitting on his small balcony, sipping coffee, recalling some interesting stories that happened in the currency circle in 2024.
This year, there was a crazy "Bitcoin Pet Competition" in the currency circle. Major digital currencies have launched their own "pet coins", and pit bulls, Ethereum cats, and dogecoins have come into being. I remember once, I went to a digital currency summit, and someone actually brought a pit bull to the venue. This pit bull was also wearing a Bitcoin collar, which simply stole the limelight!
In addition to pet coins, a "blockchain + food" craze also emerged in 2024. A restaurant launched "blockchain roast duck". It is said that each piece of roast duck is engraved with a unique blockchain address. After eating, customers can also scan the code to receive a certain number of token rewards. Of course, some people also joked that this is an attempt to issue "eating currency".
There was also an inexplicable "disappearance of digital currency" in the currency circle in 2024. An exchange suddenly announced its closure, causing the digital assets of millions of users to disappear. The owner of this exchange claimed that his private key was accidentally lost and he could not retrieve the user's assets. As a result, the owner was nicknamed "missing tycoon" by netizens and became a laughing stock in the currency circle.
In 2024, the currency circle not only has pet coins and food chains, but also a large wave of "blockchain + sports" projects. Some teams have launched their own digital tickets, and fans can buy tickets through blockchain technology, and realize the traceability and anti-counterfeiting of tickets. This makes many fans sigh: "No more worrying about tickets being snapped up by scalpers in the future!"
These interesting little stories make me deeply sigh that the currency circle is developing so fast that it is really overwhelming. Perhaps, one day in the future, digital currency and blockchain technology will be integrated into all aspects of our lives and become an indispensable part of our lives. Just like the Internet back then, it is changing our world.
