The Crypto Story #1 | Who am I and what is this?

in cryptocurrency •  7 years ago 

In the beginning...

Hello whoever's reading this, I'm Sean and this is the start of the story of how an 18 year old guy loses his savings. Oh wait, doesn't sound like a nice story right? Ok then its a story of how an 18 year old guy becomes a millionaire. That sounds extremely unrealistic it's probably not the ending. This is obviously not the ending if I told you that then what would be the point of reading the story? you're a busy person so I can't waste your time telling you more than you need to know.

To be honest I don't even know the ending of this story, not because I'm forgetful but because this story doesn't have an ending yet. Actually it doesn't even have a middle the only bit I can tell you is the start. At this point your probably starting to think "why is someone who has no idea about how a story goes trying to tell me that story?", well you're right to think think that but I have a good reason. This story hasn't actually been written yet, this story is what happens when an 18 year old with no prior experience of managing money, stocks or how to make money starts to get into the world of cryptocurrency and all the ups and downs that come with it (Incase you are unaware, cryptocurrency has some of the largest ups and downs you will ever come across, or so I've been told).

But why would you care? I'm just a random guy telling you my ongoing story of cryptocurrency. Well depending on your position you could be an experienced trader with 30 years of trading stocks under your belt and wanting to see what this new 'cryptocurrency thing' is, or maybe you were an early investor in bitcoin when it was trading at less than £10 (I'm British by the way, so some prices may be in pounds but I'll try and make as many in dollars as possible) and if you were I envy you, but most probably your new to cryptocurrency to and it seems like a daunting world where you can apparently become rich but you have no idea whats actual going on. Well I'm the last one too, and I hope to provide you with an inside look from the start to finish of everything I do, learn and experience with cryptocurrency.

If you've got this far congratulations, I know reading can be boring but I'll try and include pictures when possible, sorry for the small essay

Ok before you click off this article I'm gonna get to how this will work, I hope you stick around you could be involved 😮 , exciting.


How this works

I want to provide you with as much useful information as possible, so I had a think and have come up with a list of things that I want to include. You think my list is rubbish? Great, tell me about it below and if enough people agree (realistically if two people agreed then I'd be swayed, it doesn't take much) I'll include or remove it. Well here it is, get ready to tear it apart:

I want to:

  • Show you what trades I've done/doing , what percentage of my money is in what (percentages help stop currency conversion issues) and why I've decided to invest or sell a particular cryptocurrency
  • Teach you all the new stuff I've learnt since last time, so you don't make the same mistakes I do
  • Try things out and tell you how it went, giving full reviews if I think its needed
  • Check out things you tell me, from new tools to use to cryptocurrencies you're in, You probably know something I don't and I'd be happy to hear about it
  • Engage with you, you're the reason i'm writing this

Tell me what you think of it, I do genuinely care, and in the upcoming days I'll start to tell you the beginning of my story in more detail and tell you more about how you can get involved

"Now I'm really bored can you stop talking please"

Ok ok enough for today, if you want to see how this goes, it may go horribly and you can have something to laugh at or I may be able to give you the advice you needed to really start making money (either way it seems worth it to me) then feel free to follow me, just not in real life thats kinda weird.

That's all for now, most chapters end on a cliffhanger so I'll leave you with this, Next week I'll tell you how I made the worst choice in investing in cryptocurrency ever... Now you're interested, because it could of happened to anyone, even you.

Nice to meet you, @coinbasics! Welcome to the Steemit Community, wish you good luck and a good start, ive send you a small tip and followed you, hope you have an amazing day! :)

Thank you, if you have any suggestions to make my story better I'd be glad to here them. Your photography is really good I really like your city shots. I hope you're able to be a part of this journey.

haha, it seems that more and more people are getting into this (including myself) with little to no knowledge of how cryptocurrencies work so I hope my story can help others have an enjoyable time learning rather than losing money 😄 . Thanks for the comment I appreciate it

my pleasure. to be honest, my brain still bleeds every time I try to read and study cryptocurrencies but I'll try to read from time to time so I could train my brain to accept it. hehehe. Hope you'll have a great time here on Steemit. I abandoned my facebook and spend most of my time here. One of my facebook friends asks me if I am still alive. What can I say, Steemit is more addictive than facebook. ;)
