I'm hesitant to start writing this book (series of blogs) on the Hive blockchain. So I have to tell myself few things so that I can write with ease and stick to my own style.

I'm writing this book to myself so I can read and extract value that will massively help my future self. Even if just one person gets very little value from reading this book and I will be genuinely happy but my intention is to write the book I want to read. I will treat this as a personal journal like the book Meditation by Marcus Aurelius.

777

I am not sure what month exactly but I'm pretty sure it was in the year 2014, I heard about Bitcoin for the first time. 2014 was probably the best year in my life so far at least for 2 main reasons. One is I got my British citizenship after 11 years of living in the UK and the second one is I was able to quit my co-operate job and started to work for myself for the first time. Special Thanks to AirBnb which led me to become a freelancer by becoming a AirBnb host.

A couple who travelled to London from California stayed in my apartment for 2 days, And we spent one evening and had dinner together. Both of them were extremely passionate about Bitcoin and why it's one of the most powerful things that got invented after the internet. They explained to me everything about Bitcoin for 3 hours and I was convinced that I'm going to get into Bitcoin as soon as possible.

The couple checked out the next day. I told myself that I'm genuinely happy with being an AirBnb host and let me focus on being the best Host I can be and providing good value to my guest.

This book is about me and crypto. So I don't want to talk about things that are not related to crypto too much.

I never bought any Bitcoin nor did more research on it up until 2017. Many things happened in my personal life since 2014 and I finally bought a few Bitcoins and ETH in early 2017.
