I will make it short.
Without Bitcoin I would be nothing. Perhaps I would just have an okayish life but not the time freedom I can afford now. Bitcoin allowed me to be global, generous and polite. Thank you Satoshi, Hal Finney and everyone else including you who is reading it.
I love it! Bitcoin has definitely opened up some different avenues for me but its mainly a hobby and a nest egg that I hope one day I can use to pay off my house and perhaps help me gain more freedom. As I continue on my own bitcoin journey and faced with difficult times financially I find that its especially hard to hold onto it now and not having to use my coin to care for my family. This is somethiung I wrestle with almost every day and I hope and pray that one day I don't have to worry about these things. Bitcoin to me gives me hope, it gives me something to hold onto and I mean literally HODL all while having to fend off my wife and family every time there is a dip. Shit man been holding on since late 2017 and its made me strong!
