A month from now it's time for Steemfest 2!
How the world of crypto has changed since then. Pretty unbelievable. Especially the price and functionality.
I remember going to SF1 without much expectation. But it was the most professionally organized event I ever been to.
Some memories:
They gave everyone that attended SF1, 1900 STEEM. That's more than $2000 today! I doubt they do that again :)
I was on the boat with @hilarski and his wife @anahilarski and we were talking crypto. I remember very well him saying I should check out Dash. It was a solid coin. It was also trading at $8-10. (now: +$300) (REGRETS! lol)
I arrived at SF1 very early. Walking through the doors of the main event @ezzy and @rea thought I was part of the event. He was wrong I was just a visitor like them. We are friends to this day and talk almost every day.
The food was great.
SF1 convinced me that STEEM could be a gamechanger and made me start to invest more time and money into it.
Every time I think about SF1 I also think about not buying Dash. Luckily I did buy STEEM but still. I was wondering if you have any stories of not buying regrets.
Dtube
Every time I make a vlog I try to upload to Dtube first. With Firefox and Chrome. Today I got this far. But after pressing post it tells me I have to upload a video first. I'm in contact with the devs trying to sort this.

Hey my bro! Man, thanks so much for the awesome trip down memory lane! And what a "lane" it is, right? I still remember oh-so-clearly how in awe we all were at the level of production, scale and sheer "fun" factor of the event. @roelandp did such a phenomenal job (if that wasn't already mentioned at some point, lol.)
But man, how strange that we just happened to be the first at the entrance to the venue, only to get chatting afterwards and now become such good friends. A completely unexpected turn of events, but what an absolutely welcome one at the same time! To the point that it actually feels weird typing a comment to you on here when I know our standard mode of communication is now "audible speech", lol!
If that doesn't illustrate the potential connective social powers of Steemit, I don't know what will!
Fantastic post, my bro. Can't wait to meet up with you again next month and continue on with the good times. To forged life long friendships and a "shit tonne" of steem power, lol!
Nice one, pal! :)

Good memories @exyle and I have a good memory, too, is connected with crypto-currencies, or rather I was just a guy with simple interests, then I heard about crypto-currencies and caught fire with them realizing that this could completely change my life. Now I'm constantly on the road in the world of crypto-currency and I never regretted it :)

They gave 1900 STEEM to visitors last year! Damn, should've been an early adopter. Well, at least I bought some DASH and Ethereum around that time, so no regrets on missing out on 30-50 cent STEEM.

Do we have stories of regrets... Ha! Seems I am always the one to buy at the top, and sell at the bottom... So, I finally committed a lot to Steemit, to force myself to HODL.
Nice VLOG, I hope I can make it to Steemfest this time.

Not having the foresight in 2009 to mine BTC will always be a regret! I built my own rigs back then and had a couple of nice machines that would have done the job very nicely!
Steemfest is a big unknown to me, but your blog and words from others make me think it's going to be an awesome few days. 1800 Steem would make me a dolphin but I'm not holding my breath!
Have a good day man!

The first time I heard about Bitcoin I just put it away as nonsense in my mind so don't feel bad :) Only later when I took the time and realized what it was truly was I saw it's potential. By then it was $250 each.

I think the plan was to give away 1000STEEM at first but then the price dropped so much in the months leading to the event they made it 1900. I'm not sure but that's what I think.

Looking at the growth in Crypto over the last year, everyone wishes they would have bought more. This time last year Dash was at $10 and ETH $10 now both are worth 30X more at $300 a coin. I think ETH and Dash have best fundamentals for longterm price growth. Personally, I loaded ETH last year when it was around $10 and its changed my life - well on paper at least. However, I could have bought Dash master nodes and done even better with the payouts. Next year this time it will be similar I think. Damnit if we'd just bought more crypto early on but even today is early on if crypto fundamentally changes the world. One day next year you'll see $3000 Dash and $3000 ETH. Steem will also be much higher than today depending upon how SMT's go.

I bought my first ETH for around $2. Also should have bought more but o well...in hindsight it's all so easy :)

Exyle, if we could only go back in time... LOL. Wow, you were super early buying ETH at $2. I came after the DAO hack and starting cost averaging in all the way till last Christmas. It worked out well so far and the future looks bright to possibly hit a trillion valuation one day. I love Steem too!

Being able to take everything in and see and feel the project and community I imagine was incredible and made it very real for you. I love the way you describe how professional and first class everything was done. That speaks volumes about Steem Inc and the organization as a whole.
Watching and reading your blog/vlog has been one of the primary ways I've learned about Steem and crpyto currency in general. I thank you for the time and effort you put in b/c it's been incredibly valuable to me. I trust your opinion, and that says a lot b/c I'm extremely skeptical about everything until I've done my due diligence. Hearing you talk about how incredible Steem Fest 1 was just bolsters my confidence in the platform to be a leader in block chain technology in the future.
Don't fret about not losing all the fat brother. You have to live and enjoy yourself too. You've made incredible progress in a very short amount of time and are enjoying the new lifestyle you've created, I think that's the most important thing. Have a great night brother!!

In 1997, I had to go to another country, my family stayed at home. The first time was very difficult, alone in a foreign country, different people went on the way, both good and bad. Now I have a family and two beautiful children, I have nothing to talk about I do not regret. For I am happy.
