New to...About everything. Hello Steemit!

in #introduceyourself8 years ago (edited)

Yes, Greetings!
My Name is Michael
I am new here to Steemit, and well, new to most things crypto.
I’m 20 years old as of this last October, and I live in the United States

So,
Cryptocurrency is my very first investment… Ever, and I’ll tell you all about what made me take the leap. About mid-January of last year, I called up my friend that lives in Colorado on skype. I tell him that all day I’ve been reading about this new “crypto” platform, keep in mind I knew very little about cryptocurrency and I had no idea what a blockchain even was! This “New Platform” I was talking about, is of course Ethereum. At the time Ethereum was a whopping 10 Dollars EACH! I told him that as I was checking it out, it started at 1 dollar and shot up to 10! We were talking about the possibilities for a while, but we never took the lunge…unfortunately.

Well poof here we are, about 3 months back from now. I started to investigate crypto again as I heard a friend talking to me about it at work. (I was working as a car salesman) I open a website called “CoinMarketCap” and I almost dropped my phone. Now I’m sure this may have even happened to you, or maybe even a similar experience, but it feels like dropping a million dollars in the crack of the seat or the “Bermuda triangle” in the car where it is impossible to grab. So, in my research of the vast landscape that is cryptocurrency, I stumbled upon this majestic place. Steemit! And hopefully I’ll be able to share many things to the community that can bring value to those that read my posts!

A big passion of mine is Cars! (especially paid off ones am I right? Lol)

I own a 2005 Subaru WRX that has some modifications Installed by me! Depending on if someone else here has the same car I might make a list of mods and post how I installed them and what you’d need to install them!
I also have a 2016 Dodge Challenger R/T stock, It’s my daily driver.

I am also a content creator for video games on other platforms such as Youtube and Twitch LiveStream and I hope to bring some of that content here to you guys! I will be posting videos on DTube as well as livestreaming on Dlive. I will be sharing a variety of content with the community and hope to bring something new to the table for you all.

I have a lot of different passions and hobbies, I guess what makes me…well me, comes down to a few things

• Competitive gaming for at least 6 years!
• I’ve only ever had dogs, but just recently acquired a cat. Very long story.
• Dabbled in 3D design and Video Game designing in at least 4 different engines!
• Video Editor
• Snowboarder
• Artist
• Musician (I Play 16 different instruments)/also a Music Producer I’ve been producing music for close to 5 years now
• As for any sports In Highschool I was in the Drumline, and I am a percussionist. I also played hockey for about 2 years
• I am Mexican/American, and I speak fluent Spanish! I go to Mexico every year!
• I have 2 Brothers
• I do have a girlfriend (sorry ladies 😉)
• I’ve had a computer since age 8 and learned to build a PC at the age of 10! my father was an IT Tech for the whole region of the state we are in, so naturally my whole family was pretty tech savvy.
• Marketing and Sales experience
• I love the outdoors and I love exploring!
• I love taking photos! I’ve never really explored photography, but I like to take pictures of different adventures I go on whether that’s a hike or a camping trip! I’d love to share some of my pictures with you guys as well!

I Look forward to joining the steemit community, and I am very excited! Thank you all for being here with me, and thank you all for making this community what it is
Sincerely,
Michael
