Hi Natalia.

I started becoming interested in crypto because it was a hype around 2014 (when the bitcoin first went over 100$) and I had some colleages that were discussing their profits (they picked them up in the very very beginning) , quickly followed by bitcoin crossing 1000$ and crashing subsequently. I picked some up after the crash, mostly for novelty's sake, and unfortunately wasted them later on online shopping. It was only with the arrival of eth that I started in full earnest, studying the technology and eventually setting up my own mining ridge.

Currently, I use bitcoin/crypto mostly as a supplemental (at least when counting in time) way to gain money and hopefully attain financial independence, and as a way to diversify my assets.
