how I discovered bitcoin

in bitcoin •  7 years ago 

I’ve been on a wild crypto ride since my first purchase of bitcoin.

I first heard about bitcoin from Adam Kokesh on his Adam vs. The Man show back in 2011 I believe. He was smoking dmt on his couch for the internet to watch...

Although that wasn’t my plan, to get super spun for the world of youtube.. I was very interested in Dmt. Dmt was of course the subject of search.

I learned about the Silk Road and how to mine bitcoin from Adam. The mining program was rudimentary - a simple online GUI, hot online wallet where the bitcoins were directly deposited.

I couldn’t tell you how many bitcoins I accumulated during my mining experience before throwing in the towel and teaching myself organic chemistry instead.

I got a little nervous about buying drugs on the internet and getting them sent to my parents home..

Miner looked something like this

Wow, if I still had those private keys.. maybe I doooo hmmmmm 🤔

But with that being said, bitcoin is a deflationary currency. I’ve personally lost hundreds of bitcoins 🙀👻👻👻💩 But I’m not ment to be a billionaire....

nevertheless - It was DMT, YOUTUBE & KOKESH that brought bitcoin into my life. 5 years passed before another friend of mine told me bitcoin had risen to $500

😮😲😵 the last time I was messing with bitcoin it is was just a couple dollars for 1

June 2009 1 BTC = 0.0001 USD
June 2010 1 BTC = 0.07 USD
June 2011 1 BTC = 15 USD
June 2012 1 BTC = 7 USD
June 2013 1 BTC = 100 USD
June 2014 1 BTC = 600 USD
June 2015 1 BTC = 220 USD
And so on to the moooooon

Didn’t get to catch up with @adamkokesh this year at Anarchapulco but maybe next year. I believe he’s running for NOT president.

Hope to see you in Mexico next year! The event will sell out quick, I already bought 8 tickets!
