Why did I choose Ethereum?

Alright bros, gather round. This is my Ethereum self-story beginning in 2019, straight from the blockchain trenches. GME war was printing and the rabbit hole led me towards crypto.

I didn’t get into ETH because it was “safe.” I got in because it was inevitable. Back in the day, while everyone was chasing the next dog-themed moonshot, I was lurking, reading whitepapers like they were sacred scrolls. Ethereum just hit different. Smart contracts? DeFi? Programmable money? My brain went full galaxy mode. 🌌

I aped my first ETH during peak fear. Gas fees were brutal, timeline was screaming “ETH is dead,” and I was out here clicking confirm like a true degen monk. Did I understand everything? Absolutely not. Did I believe? 100%. Diamond hands forged in mempool congestion.

Then came the long nights: watching dev calls, learning why decentralization actually matters, explaining to my friends that ETH isn’t “just another coin.” I watched NFTs explode, DeFi summer melt faces, and L2s rise like saviors from gas hell. When the Merge happened, I didn’t sleep, I watched the blockchain explorer. Block by block I watched the merge approaching. Proof of Stake locked in. Ultrasound money vibes activated. Supply go brr… but like, responsibly.

Price can go up and down. We can still stack and make gains in either direction. But ETH can’t be held down forever!

I’ve ridden the pumps, survived the nukes, and held through the “you still in crypto?” conversations at family dinners. I’m not here for a quick flip. I’m here because Ethereum is the settlement layer of the internet, and I want front-row seats.

I stake. I build. I hodl. ETH isn’t just my bag—it’s my conviction. WAGMI, but only if you actually believe. And oh boy… I BELIEVE!

LFG. 🚀
