My Crypto Journey- A Zimbabwean Story
In a country where the price of bread is 100ZWL (Zimbabwean dollar) while the average salary is 2000ZWL (US equivalents of USD$$1 and USD$20 respectively), I have decided to embark on my own journey to financial freedom which started in 2017 with the words “Satoshi Nakamoto”; “Decentralisation”; “Bitcoin millionaires” among other striking phrases. This is my story. In 2017 as a recent graduate in Applied Biology and Biochemistry, I began working for a chemicals start-up where my bosses were more interested in exploitation than paying. At that time a friend of mine introduced me to a Paid to Click (PTC) site where, after generating USD$20 from viewing ads at 1.5 cents per view, I was devastated to discover I needed 6 referrals to withdraw. I then found some light at the end of the tunnel when in one corner it read “…alternatively, you can pay for referrals.’ Interestingly there was a payment option, bitcoin. “Where has I heard that name before?” I thought. I then remembered it was on a series I had watched called start-up. With my interest peeked, I began my journey towards financial freedom. At this point I’ll let you know I did buy bitcoin and paid for my referrals which I never got, and yep, I realised it was a scam. The situation however opened my eyes to bitcoin and all the opportunity it represented. Herein lies the rest of my story which I will tell you all in a series of articles. I hope you will enjoy reading them as much as I am enjoying writing them

Welcome on read.cash :) Keep writing and wish you luck here :)
I will. Thank you for your vote of confidence
Welcome to read.cash I'm curious about your story.
Hi. Thanks. I'm going to keep writing. I'm glad you enjoyed this one
Real stories from real life, that's what I like to read best. Preferably with photos.
I'll incorporate photos in my next article. You want real life one's right?
Write what you can write best. Don't write what I want to read. I only wrote what I like to read best, but that doesn't mean you should write it. I also take photos, so I like to look at other photos.
I get it. I like your input. It's honest and has perspective
I'll definitely do that
Subscribed! I am looking forward to hearing your stories and would be happy to help in the future. I really hope read.cash is helping you in a major way because this site is definitely not a scam and the earnings are real.
Hi. I'm definitely going to be writing more. I can't wait to enjoy earning. I just started. Thanks for the encouragement and your offer of assistance. Allow me to extend the same
Thank you. Please bring more people from Zimbabwe. We need people from these countries to adopt crypto and make it a success so we can showcase to the world! Maybe just add stories or every day life there with pictures etc
Yeah that's true, the world is getting smaller everyday as globalisation bridges distances between us. What kind of pictures would you like to see? My city and my everyday life?
Yes that would be great. I only see Zimbabwe from news channels and I know most of them are biased in their own ways. I would (as i'm sure a lot of others) would like to see how day to day life is. You don't have to be in the picture if you don't want to. Maybe a pic of your neighborhood (if not your own house), maybe your way to work and also maybe where you work, a grocery store etc
Okay. Will do
Thank you thank you piyal
Stay tuned. I aim to provide quality content for you to read
