Bitcoin Forum

𝗧𝗼𝗱𝗮𝘆 happens to make it a complete 365 days (1 year) of me signing up on this forum, knowing about BTCitcoin and more. I remember how uninformed I was about BTCitcoin. I also remember the days I said that I didn't want anything to do with BTCitcoin. Nevertheless, here I am! 1 year of contribution on the platform. I feel glad to remember this very date, that moment I created my account, that evening I had to pay some fraction of BTCitcoins as evil fee (for an evil I didn't commit😅).
You know, paying the evil fee irrespective of the amount required is really worth it. Thank you everyone for having made this place interactive, and special thanks to the creator of BTCitcoin; Satoshi!
At least, I've been able to achieve and accomplish a lot because of BTCitcoin.
I'll keep contributing more and more both to the promotion of BTCitcoin and to this forum! ♥

Bitcoin; Not the average coin.
Coins as I grew up to know tend to rust,
They turn brown and form some dust
Playing with them, we misplaced them severally.
These coins had their value,
they don't worth much, mind you.
Then came someone by the name Satoshi
Tho he lives anonymously,
I guess an Asian.
With his intelligence and PC,
He created some that even the blind can see;
Bitcoin! Not the average coin
These coins were created to be virtual
Didn't worth much, in fact lower than the physical
It was worth 8 cents
And capable of being sent
All you need to receive yours is just a wallet address;
Long alpha-numeric characters which doesn't seem dressed.
As time flew by,
Bitcoin refused to die
With all the critics and scam accusations,
It was made to be on probation.
With time, this virtual coin tend to worth more
Increasing to a dollar, critics couldn't say more
And before they could say Jack-Robinson, it was worth hundreds of dollars and even more.
Remember, this is just a coin;
A virtual coin;
Bitcoin; Not the average coin.

Even tho its price dropped by some percentage,
It presently worths 6,000 dollars and more.
But note that it has attained an all time high of over 19,000 dollars?
Of course it did!; worthing more than it's creator could imagine.

After bitcoin surfaced,
Some other coins like Etheruem were found at the surface.
And from then till date,
Coins and tokens are created with an increasing rate
All of them try to float, survive the cold, and avoid death.
Bitcoin is Not the Average coin, even though it isn't the only coin out there.

I know it isn't professional but that's what I could do.

A poem and 3D art... Nice party you make for this ^_^ Congrats fro that first Year. As you can see this forum has a great community, tons of people who is ready to help others and the best part, it's a great business opportunity for all the users.

So, congrats again for your first year, and keep pushing and someday you will become legendary.

Thanks a lot for the encouragement. I'm grateful. I'll keep contributing and will keep promoting BTCitcoin.

Nice write up, am not sure if i can write a poem for btc even if i would have wanted to :) and it is also nice to know you eventually have a change of mind after refusing to have anything with btc, I think like you, the majority of people who are still rejecting btc is as a result of their lack of knowledge about it, maybe if they can allow themselves to get to understand it, they will warn up to the idea.
Happy 1year anniversary!!!

That’s a nice poem and congratulations @chris barth you seem to be doing really good work out here, and yes this community always helps those who ask for help. I’ll second that @seoincorporation as he can definitely become a legendary member out here soon.

i have Been seeing you around the forum and so Grateful of your effort managing seminars to spread what bitcoin is all about in your country.

you are one treasure of this forum and deserves to be merited(so i awarded you one) as your contribution in cryptocurrency is really appreciated.

Congratulation to your 1st year as a Forum member Hoping to see more of your thread and success in seminars managed by you.

I concur to this. There's this saying that when we decided to believe what we want to believe, we limit ourselves from other things that could be there.
Most people have chosen to believe something negative and this limits them from knowing that there is a positive side. Most of them are just uninformed and all they need is the right information given in the right way. I hope they get it.

OP, Happy Birthday.

Did you already learn the important Bitcoin History lessons, about the scaling debate, Segwit, and how the community fought against some of the top merchants/exchanges/miners that wanted to co-opt Bitcoin?

Did you learn about the technical details of why regulating the block size is better for the security of the network?

Have you already learned why trolls discredit the UASF soft fork?

Learn them and educate the newbies.

I actually didn't know someone was backstage watching, and I'm honoured to know that you noticed my work. I'll keep doing more of what I do for as much as I can. I wish at least 70% of us here could do same. Thanks.

I give merit too for you. I hope you can get success in the future, and still trying hard from now on to make more and more money ;D

I think the 3D art looks as professional. I think you can create another of BTC. I like the number one of the image ;D

I wish I can make a poem like you because that is hard for me to string the words like what you did.

Thank you.

Did you say professional? Thanks!! I am most grateful to hear that. I'm not an artist tho, it's been more than 2 years I drew 3D. This one took a lot of calculations tho. Thanks! I'm glad you liked it

3D art looks awesome to me! Congrats on your 365 days. It's a shame that it was not a few months before because in that case, you could have taken part in Bitcointalk art contest (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5193860.0). It hasn't been a good time for Bitcoin... It's been moving from $4k to $12k and then back to $5k throughout the year, so it's quite surprising and inspiring to hear that some people actually got interested in this tough period and are still not disappointed with Bitcoin. You're a brave one! I wish you not to run out of inspiration to promote BTC!

Nice poem and nice artwork mate, I can't even create a long poem like that so well done me, Congrats for your 1 year in this forum, I hope you have learned so many things. If you are really active on reading and understanding some posts in different sections of this forum for sure you will learn so many things and you may use it for the future use to become a better person.

Great work buddy.The poem is really catchy and something which i can relate too
Waiting for my 365 days to complete,nit sure i'll be able to write as good as you but for sure will do something to cherish that memory.
Because spending 365 days in crypto not only gives good return but also increases your knowledge.
Congratulation buddy.

I appreciate your poem especially your artwork since I am very fond of creating painting and drawing. I've given you some merit just to show some appreciation. You did a great job.

It is sad that you missed a once in a blue moon Bitcointalk Anniversary (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5193860.msg52870979#msg52870979) that was held last year of November, and I think sharing your bitcoin drawing will be a good idea.

Furthermore, if you are planning to promote bitcoin to a large sum of people. It would be very beneficial to you to read and digest lots of information about bitcoin. Surprisingly, it reminds me of Andreas Autonopolous because of you who became so fond in bitcoin until he masters every bit of information and understand its complex nature and  becoming one of the most reputable bitcoin speaker in crypto space.

If you needed some of his books just ping me.

Thanks a lot for your support. Actually, I didn't miss the Bitcoin anniversary. It's just that I wasn't really inspired like now. I made an art there but it was wacky 😅😅. I wish I could take back the hand of time to create a lot but..... Let's patiently wait for the next time it'll come.

Regarding the book, I'd love to see 'em.
Thanks for your contribution. I'm thankful.

I can sense a very strong passion in you to spread the good news. You sound so fresh and driven even after so many months of promoting Bitcoin. No amount of energy seems to have been lost in you. You've certainly been a great Bitcoin evangelist not only within this forum but also in your land. I can still remember you gathering ordinary people together in any possible way to try to introduce Bitcoin to them and make them understand it.

I hope you will continue with your incredible job. And stay safe.

Exactly! I don't feel wasted about promoting bitcoin. All I need is energy and time (which I have to sacrifice). Thanks for your encouragement. Please stay safe too.

Couldn't agree more, people choose to believe what they want to believe even if that thing don't appear to be the truth, it is not that difficult to seek the truth if anyone is willing to do so, there are lots of information out there about btc (both the positive and negative) that can impact our perception towards btc and crypto in general,
But not many people are eager to do research on their own, they rely heavily on news from the media and hearsay,  hopefully in time this will change.

1 year in btc is relatively new compare to those who have been in the space for some time now,  within this short period of time you have manage to equip yourself with the basic knowledge about this space, even though at first you were not interested but you give yourself a chance to read and understand btc instead of believing the same bad review most people have towards btc, congrats to you for this journey.

Happy Birthday !  :D

I really want to commend the poem you made just to commemorate your year on this, it really made me realized how this forum and cryptocurrency in general are doing with you guys.

I don't even think of how many years that I'm here coz I feel like a new everyday since I see the price very different every time lol. Hope you're enjoying the situation with the market right now as some of us do.

Happy birthday. The poem is really good and catchy, youre a passionate writer and some here couldnt make a very interesting post like what you did. Ive seen some of your post and to tell you, youre doing great, just continue posting and promoting bitcoin as you pleased. No wonder you can be promoted to higher rank soon. I wish we got more member like you. It does show that some knowledge we learned here can put into good unique poem. Also the art is cool. Looking forward for more OP. If this art goes in the art contest before, you can gain a lot of fans and even merits for a nice and catchy design.

Thanks a lot for the exaltation. I am actually a good writer (tho I'm not into poems). I'm pleased to hear that you found this interesting. I'm actually out of lines, I could have made a third prom cause this is literally my second one. PS: the first one wasn't worth it. 😁

You are one of the luckiest in the world to get on the space at this time. Anyone joining after the bear market bottom can only see the bull market parabolic but will need to learn how to get the best from the bull market. Most people made this mistake in their first bull and had to regret it in the next cycle. Position yourself very well in this market and get reliable mentors with experience of 2 cycle to help you through. The more the risk here the more the gain.

Not bad so far at all, and you seem to be rather into introducing people into Bitcoin from what I’ve seen on your posts, often in conditions that are certainly not optimal in terms of media. Nice to see your enthusiasm around.

Keep going Chris, I did a little tour in your post history and I appreciate the exertion you're doing in promoting bitcoin like the simple explanation video you made about ways of promoting, it"s a short and funny one that makes you watch until the end. I would love to see a video briefly explaining what is bitcoin and blockchain technology in a funny way with the same guy playing with his invisible beard lol.

Congratulations on your Successful one year of experience using the bitcointalk forum and much appreciation for the poem, I heard a long time ago about this platform and take a look without opening the account, I really regret choice for not being the early member of the community after realizing there are a lot more than Bounty activities which I understood group was for that but the reason was out of point to think of that.  

Thanks! You obviously enjoyed watching the video. Remember, the aim is the idea and message in the video.
Regarding making a video that explains bitcoin and blockchain, I'll put that to my to-do list; once I can, I will make it (even tho it takes time).

Congratulations on achieving your first year on the forum, I love the poem you created to mark the occasion.

I am a little bit over 1 year on the forum and i also had to pay the evil fee for an evil I didn't commit but it was worth it.

I think that time has nothing to do with it. Based on the experience of many years (and I have been in cryptocurrency for more than 5 years), I can say with accuracy that even with a high awareness of the risks, people lose huge amounts in this area every year. I think the problem is the human factor.

We all appreciate the poem nd the 3d art you have created to this forum. You are one of the inspiration for some newbies and members here because I can see your dedication to this forum. I do hope you continue to grow and contribute more useful contents here. And continue to spread awareness about bitcoin.
 
 Remember that learning is a continuous process and with this forum, you may learn a lot of things. One year is not enough, more years for you to stay and more success, mate!

In the year 2016, I'm not even sure that I ever heard of the word bitcoin. I was actually in school trying to cram Boyle's Law 😅😅
So yes, I'm kind of late but I don't think I'm late cause when bitcoin hits 50k, how would you define those who join at that point? Irrespective of that, I'm trying to meet up.
Thanks for coming around.

Wonderful! You art work is just lit! It looks like the bitcoin is coming out from the paper but I'm sure it's a flat paper.
I really enjoyed the poem. It tells a lot in it.
Let me drop some lines.

The world economy is crumbling
Some btc holders are grumbling
"Its a good time to buy" says a bitcoin analyst
As he shrugs and puts it first on his list!

Beautiful lines😍
Try to make something more out of it. You're obviously good at it. Don't forget to promote bitcoin and stay safe. Thanks for your contribution!
