Before I'm entering cryptoworld, I was a gamer in long term years since 2008 and still it as my chill place especially I'm playing focused on online strategic or competition games. I have lost interest being a YouTube Letsplayer since the YouTube newest security features (Child friendly) and affected my all of the videos with scary, gory and other things that aren't suitable for young audience.
After the Letsplay era, I'm doing 3D Animations with MikuMikuDance software and it was fun to make and sometimes it's cringy a lot especially when you put the animation in wrong places (glitches, unexpected movement, doesn't sync, etc.). That time, I've earned from YouTube's Google Adsense program but it's a shame since I'm using other people's model and copying their motions (saved animation) and I didn't continue making it again.
In June 2017, I was finding some other things that can earn, I'm searching high value currency and I find the Bitcoin was the highest and I can't believe the price if I convert it to USD. I explore a lot and ended up founding Bitcointalk forum site and search what's it for. I've seen most of the thousand of threads are running signature campaign and attempting to join the service but unfortunately I'm unable to join since I'm Newbie rank and they have specific ranks to get inside on their program. I explore again and again and I find out there's a local thread and see the posts in my specific known language. I saw something interesting in those threads about "What's better? Joining bitcoin signature campaign or joining altcoin" and I read some feedback that almost altcoin airdrop answers in the comments and search in the forum site about altcoin.
My first time joining an altcoin is DeepOnion which has airdrop in it, I download the software and put the weird (my 1st time) address in the required registration (signature + forum) and I was qualified into it since they need "Jr. Member" rank in the with their automatic registrations in August 18. I was happy to see many members sharing, supporting and chatting about deeponion and their project was great since they aim for anonymous and decentralize service because bitcoin is not safe anymore in term of privacy on sending. Few days ago I got an +200 amount of onion and I don't know what's it for. I just search on google for onion and I'm shocked that the price is higher than USD and I was tempted to sell some of it since I read the deeponion has 90% rule and I didn't scare about it. After I send 8% of my onion to the site Novaexchange I don't know what to do and search in the deeponion forums how to exchange it to USD. Now I read some that onions need to convert to bitcoin in order to sell it on USD and I was really tempted since the price was like $3-4. After the 3rd airdrop I didn't get some onions and ask members why, someone told me that use coin control feature and I didn't realize it and it was bad to send onions without it, I check my status and got "Blacklisted by DeepOnion for unknown reason." now and I was very sad about the status. I don't even stop supporting the project even the blacklist instead I'm motivated to share some of my knowledge to members and I hope many members not to fall of temptation that what I did.
It was 3 weeks now after my blacklist from DeepOnion, I am now plan to join on another airdrop program while I'm waiting for my blacklists to remove (DeepOnion support mod told me that don't stop contribute and I'll be put inside the airdrop program again) and I found MorningStar and the dev there needing a support (even tho I didn't told him that I'm supporting members) and I'm became admin from that altcoin and I was happy to get into the community. The lesson from the DeepOnion I've learn is to follow their rules and I'm ok with it and I preventing myself to join other people fudding the altcoin because they want profit from airdrop. If I fudding, that means I'm supporting bank system which is my privacy is 0% safe. I hope someone follow my footsteps too by joining altcoin projects that are good for us and for our next generation (family). For those who read my true story, thank you very much and happy supporting altcoin!
