How Crypto & Blockchain Technology Have Impacted My Personal Finance

Hello everyone.

This post is my response to the #cryptofinance initiative from @theycallmedan.

About Me

I'm in my mid-50s and have been saving and investing for several decades. My main goal is to try to ensure that my wife and kids are taken care of when I can no longer work. I've done alright for myself but I like to keep looking for ways to grow my nest egg, and have been learning a lot about cryptocurrency for the last year or so.

How I Got Into Cryptocurrency

I was aware of Bitcoin and that was about it until last summer (2019). At that time I decided I wanted to buy something that I needed Bitcoin for. I wasn't sure how to get it, but I had stumbled on Brave browser and started earning BAT.

From there I started looking for other ways to earn cryptocurrency. I found Coinbase and Coinbase learn. PublishOx was the first get paid to blog site I ran across and while there I learned about Hive. I recently discovered Leofinance and am excited about the possibilities here.

Eventually I was able to earn the Bitcoin I needed to make my purchase. But in addition to getting what I needed I have learned a little bit about cryptocurrency and how to earn it.

How Has Crypto and Blockchain Impacted My Finances

I'm really just getting started, but hope that in the next several years I will be able to grow my cryptocurrency holdings to be about 10 to 20% of my total net worth. With some luck, maybe that will be to low of a goal.

I am trying to become a better and more consistent blogger and hope to see more of you all in the coming days, weeks, months and years.

I hope you all are having a great weekend!

Till next time, Cheers!
