I'm an shitcoiner-turned-bitcoiner earlier this year. I got into "crypto" by diving into Ethereum first in 2017, have built plenty of smart contracts, some of which are popular, and have worked with a countless number of shitcoin projects. I work in the space, though not for a Bitcoin-only company, but it's alright since the pay is very good and it allows me to buy more corn and secure my family's future.

What got me into Bitcoin was questioning why these Bitcoin-maximilists were so convicted when it comes to Bitcoin. Why? My Ethereum influencer-overlords told me over and over that Bitcoin is pet rock, doesn't do anything, no one is building on it, etc. Can't they see all the "innovation" happening on Ethereum? I like to approach things with a "What if they're right?" attitude, so I made a new nym, followed a bunch of BTC-maxis, watched their videos, read their books and articles, listened to their podcasts. The more I absorbed the more I understood why.

Now I spend pretty much all my free online-time on this handle and continue to absorb info related to Bitcoin and economics. I've started orange-pilling family (it never felt right to try to get them to buy ETH or other shitcoins, glad I never did), and working through my reading list every night.

(Intro threads are also a good reason not to give away too many sats: make an intro and people will give you sats. Make quality comments with your newly-given sats, and you'll earn more. Simple)
