2019 — nosy
Started with Bitcoin Cash because I was nosy.
Discovered crypto. Traded a bit. Then got more interested in what was happening behind the screens than in the screens.
Never really a trader. Please do not send me charts. They put me to sleep.
I would rather read X, talk in Discord, fix a Linux computer, or read a document until I understand it.
Also finished secondary education in computer science.
The official story and the actual story started splitting here.
2020 — how blocks get made
Curiosity turned into mining.
Monero. Cardano. A few others.
There was no master plan. I just wanted to understand how blocks actually get made. Naturally, this led to mining. Because one tab was not enough.
And how loud a machine can get before it sounds like it is preparing for takeoff.
2021 — school in one window, linux in the other
Completed ICS with computer science.
Crypto and computers were already the bigger window.
On paper: student.
Off paper: still asking what happens if I press this.
2022 — if it boots, it works
The rabbit hole got deeper.
Nodes. Testnets. Web3 communities. Infrastructure.
Verifier nodes. Validator nodes. Whatever I could get my hands on.
Old PCs. Laptops. Dedicated boxes. Servers. Shared hardware.
If it booted Linux, it got a job.
If it did not, it became a personal challenge.
I yelled at it, then called that troubleshooting.
2023–2024 — last game, then one more
Deep into Web3, nodes, testnets, infrastructure, ecosystems.
I also played a lot of PUBG Mobile.
Late nights. Squad games. Random matches. Saying "last game" about ten times.
Between matches:
Discord. A testnet. Some hardware.
Whatever new rabbit hole had the worst timing.
Not one path. Just whatever looked interesting. More testing. More infrastructure. More hardware. And a lot of PUBG.
Somehow things still got done.
Discord became a second home.
Sometimes I would spam gib wl gib wl trying to secure an NFT GTD or whitelist.
Not because I am a hardcore collector. I am really not.
I just like seeing whether I can secure the spot.
Priorities.
2025 — too many tabs
More ecosystems. More experiments.
Monad. Hooked Protocol. Gaia. Node Ops. Movement. Story Protocol. XION. 0G Labs. ZetaChain. Omni Network. Plume.
That is what I can remember while awake. The rest will respawn at 3 AM.
Tested networks. Ran nodes. Tried hardware. Explored infrastructure. Helped people in communities. Followed whatever looked interesting enough to ruin sleep.
Most of it never hits CT. I am a low-key Discord guy.
Find something. Get curious. Go all in.
Test it. Explore it. Run it. Help people. Break something. Fix it. Learn how it works. Find another hole.
2026 — bba.exe
Virtual University. BBA.
Still in Web3.
After years of computers, servers, nodes and infrastructure, business administration felt like the obvious next move.
Makes perfect sense.
Probably.
I spent years figuring out how things work. Then decided it was time to learn how businesses work too.
The campaign is still going. No idea where the next rabbit hole leads. That is the fun part.
No JPEG vault. Not an NFT collector.
If holding something helps me stay at zero, sure, I will hold it.
Makes perfect financial sense.
Probably.
fun is the fuel.
profit is a rumor.
curiosity is the engine.
everything else is a side quest.
