The Blockchain Awakening

My fascination with blockchain technology began in 2009, coinciding with my university graduation and the aftermath of the 2008 Global Financial Crisis. As a fresh graduate in banking during a time of economic turmoil, I found myself drawn to the concept of a more equitable and transparent financial system. This curiosity led me to set up my first Bitcoin mining operation on a humble laptop. While I didn't foresee Bitcoin's meteoric rise to $100,000, I was intrigued by the potential to earn through computational power. Despite not holding onto my early Bitcoin earnings, this experience planted a seed that would later flourish into a passionate pursuit.
