How And When Did You Realise How Special Cryptocurrencies Were?
There have been several ways I realised how special cryptocurrencies were like how fast transactions were, how transparent they were and how they could change the world for good, but one aspect of cryptos that I found special is how it could bring financial freedom to those who invest both time and money in the technology.
At some point, every investor or anyone who owns crypto finally realises how important having cryptocurrencies is and tries their best to either increase the amount of cryptos they own, or reduce the amount of cryptos they lose. For me, even though I've always known cryptos were a a big deal, I realised how important owning cryptocurrencies was in the last bull market.
Prior to the bull market, I had to sell a couple cryptos to settle my tuition fee, accommodation and health emergencies. The value if the cryptocurrencies I had then were quite small and I was at a really dark place,.I had no choice but to sell a couple cryptocurrencies I had been stacking to take care of my urgent needs. I settled it all, things were good but I wished I still had the cryptocurrencies I sold because I could sense a bull market already coming.
When the bull market came and most of my holdings went up by at least ×10 the value I sold some of them earlier to cater for my needs and emergencies, I was a bit heartbroken that I could've had so much more of only those situations didn't arise.
Besides the bull market pumps here and there, I knew cryptos were special when being associated with solid projects like Hive and some NFT marketplaces fetched so much income for mostly creators and builders in the space. People were having really huge HBD payouts on Hive and were selling NFTs for crazy prices.
I've taken my activities on several platforms quite seriously and my crypto stacking mode is on, all just so I don't miss out on future opportunities.
