Date: March 4, 2022 (Friday)

It was a beautiful Wednesday morning. I was at my workplace doing paperworks that I usually do while listening to my favorite music and vibe on. I am not preoccupied with a lot of things, so it was a chill day for me. I also had a great time with my workmates, talkinh about random stuff that were happening around our country.

At 10 in the morning, I received a text message that I need to settle the payment of my bill. To be honest, the money that I was supposed to pay to that payment was still borrowed by my co-worker. I already prepared the money for it, but my co-worker asked me to lend her a money because she badly need it. I also let her borrow the money and told her that I need the money this week because I need to pay something. With that, I asked my co-worker if she already has the money to pay to me because I need to settle the payment on my other bill. Unfortunately, my co-worker sent her apologies because she's still waiting for our salary for her to pay to me. Not to mention, I understand her situation and find other means to pay the amount that was texted to me.

Just so you know, I am working my best to unlock 1 Bitcoin Cash (BCH) in my wallet. I wanted to HODL the amount in my wallet until I finally could reach 1 BCH. It has been my goal ever since I started my journey here and even in Noise. Needless to say, I am almost there to reach the goal with the price we have today. However, I badly need money so I decided to withdraw a part of the money in my wallet to settle the payment. It was hard for me to sell it first because I already hold it from the start. But I have no choice but to dive on it and I just promise myself that I will return the money that I withdraw from my wallet after my co-worker will pay to me.

To be honest, I don't know how to withdraw at first, but my friend who uses the same wallet taught me how. I used Peer to Peer (P2P) network to exchange my money to my bank account. My heart was pounding so fast that time. I was afraid that I might not receive the money, or I will be able to click the wrong button, and so on. Howbeit, after the transaction was completed, I suddely have a great relief. It was my first time to have use the P2P though, so it was a roller coaster experience to me. I'm also glad that if ever I will have another transaction soon, I already know what to do.

Here's a little overview on what I did to withdraw my money in my wallet.

What I did first is that, I went to Trade and converted my BCH in Spot to USDT. After my BCH was converted to USDT, I transferred my USDT in Spot to Funding. The moment my USDT was transferred to Funding, I then clicked the P2P then Sell. From there, I sorted the payment first to where my bank is available for transfer. The moment I found the one, I followed the instruction and finally, the order was completed.

Just so you know after that moment, I was astounded looking at the amount transferred in my wallet. The thought that I was able to gain that money out from my hardwork with the use of the most unexpected site that I discovered, made my heart warmed. Having said that, I'm truly grateful to the people behind these wonderful platform since they have given opportunities for people to have something to enjoy with amidst the pandemic. I'll forever be in awe and thankful for these platforms that we have been using today-- the Noise and Read.

Forever grateful to these people who are constantly sharing their blessings towards me. I appreciate your never-ending support.

P2P Experience

I can't deny the fact that doing P2P for the first time made me nervous. That moment when you're still unfamiliar with the path that you're walking makes you fear of what's ahead. Howbeit, it will then turn to a relief once it's done. It feels like heaven after it was completed. It feels like I have been walking to a thorny path, then finally a better path embarked after I was finished. But then, the overall experience was so smooth that I feel like I will not fear the next time I do the same transaction.

Going back, after I withdraw the amount from my wallet to my bank account. I then settled the payment to the bill that I need to pay. Although I feel sad that I withdraw a part of my money that I have been holding for some time now, I'm still grateful that I was able to pay my bills from it, although I promise to myself that I'll return what I released from my wallet.

Closing Thoughts

Bitcoin Cash through the help of Noise and Read platform becomes a big blessing in my life. I never thought that these platforms will give a big impact in my life. I never thought that it has brought so much blessings that I will receive amidst this pandemic. Indeed, there may be a lot of things going on in my life these days, but I'm glad that I was able to start my journey here, meet friends and so on. With that, I am proud to say that BCH is truly my superhero whenever I needed it the most; Bitcoin Cash saved the day.
