Much is said about Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies these days, but what do ordinary people really know about how it works, what they are for, what is its value and most importantly, how and where can I get it.
Well, to illustrate them a bit, I must go to the beginning of everything and of course, the beginning not of Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies, no, not at all, it is not what I want to share with you in these lines for not calling it an article, because I cannot boast of being a columnist and nothing like that, I'm sure many google it and there are millions of articles and information related to this cryptocurrency.
Well, today I want to talk to you not about the technicality and how magical Bitcoin can be or how unintelligible to many, NO; I want to tell you about my experience of about 4 or 5 years knowing, studying and living day by day what it is, how it works, and how important it can be for the future of many people in the world. to know and hear about bitcoin back in the year 2015-2016 when some good friends, Pedro and Norman, told me about Bitcoin. “Do you know that this will be the money that we will use in the future, easy to transfer and use, without banks central or government to centralize it? The most curious thing for me about this story, which they told me with a sparkle in their eyes, was that bitcoin was there within the reach of any human being that inhabits this planet, Thus with that price began the stories of businesses and people who received payment in bitcoin as a way to charge their products and services. That motivated me to continue betting on this one that had become an obsession and it was for that year 2016 that the sale of bitcoin mining equipment began in a massive way and trades, which already made my old bitcoin miner PC obsolete, because that's where I started The new adventure, yes, I took my savings product of many years of my work and I decided to buy several mining equipment, those industrial miners produced by the Chinese company Bitmain and yes, I bought my first Antminer S3 miners and there I spent all my savings, it was not easy to make that decision, hahahahaha ... well I thought, yes, they scammed me, but something told me no and I remembered those wise words of my grandmother, "to the good and to the one who believes in God, God always rewards him" and after almost 4 months my long-awaited arrived S3 machines that I still have as an anecdote, turned off of course, but as relics, hahahahaha… and there I literally changed my life. Then came the process of how to program and install them, and as an engineer and a technology lover it didn't cost me much, almost 3 more days, hahahahaha there I made my dream come true that my parents talked about in their fables, yes, I started producing my own money, I had some machines in my house, an apartment of 120 square meters in one room, those machines that sounded like demons and for which my wife fought every day because of the noise they made. Surely there are many things that I have ignored in this story, such as, for example, friends who called me crazy, how was it that I had machines that produced or mined money; with much affection I remember my great friend Hermes that where did I get those Martians hahahaha…. I told him I have some machines that produce bitcoin, my own money and that soon it will be more coveted than gold itself, and they laughed at me. To conclude, and to make the story short, you know what happened in the following years, Bitcoin became one of the most used and used stores of value in the world, just like gold and other precious metals. As of the day that I am writing this article, Bitcoin is trading at almost $ 9000 US dollars, and this is not its ceiling price, since at the end of 2017 it reached a record figure of 20. 000 $ US dollars. After that, came my experiences as a crypto asset trader and investor that today I want to share with you my readers.
With this story, I want to start a series of writings that help ordinary people like you and me to learn more about the world of cryptocurrencies and investments, in which I am sure, it will be the money of the future. Bitcoin is the present, but he will surely be the owner of the future.
Finally, I want to leave this as a contribution so that you learn to invest and safeguard your money in an intelligent way, that your old age is calm and happy, that you educate yourself correctly in how to manage your finances and how to enter this world of cryptocurrencies, protect your wealth and make smart investments in these times.
Will be waiting for your next article
