Just interested to hear everyone's stories are really! some of us have been on this ride years, some of us days, but I'm curious what places/people/events have occured in your life because of Bitcoin??

For me personally, my love of Bitcoin lead me to applying and getting a job at a Bitcoin Exchange in my dream role... Pretty surreal! Now because of this I get to be involved in the bitcoin community daily, as we at CoinCorner like to stay active with fellow bitcoiners whenever we can!

So yeah thats my pleb story and where it's lead me... Have any of you been lead to any life changing events because of the Bitcoin? I wanna hear them!
Although I don't have such a successful story like yours, Bitcoin has assisted in my financial stability, something sort of an emergency fund, which is set aside and constantly being reinvested, pursuing a small passive income.

Bitcoin had its ups and downs, but in the end, it didn't disappoint me, as a university student, having money set aside is vital, in case of an emergency or applying for another degree and so on.

Hey who can complain at financial stability! I was a student myself up until this year, and I definitely prefer holding what savings I do have in BTC and not depreciating away in a 'savings account'

Well, you're on point and you've got a better aura than the others who are trying hard to start a discussion without anything to talk about aside from the product that they introduce and it's only about it, nothing else. It's also my dream to work for any exchange or any company that's focused on crypto, a legitimate company that will impact not only me as a person while working there but also a lot of people that will benefit from that company's services offer.

Yeah, I think it's important people reading this thread also know that CoinCorner isn't ran by fiat hungry CEOs like many other exchanges, but true maxi bitcoiners who have the same goals and visions for Bitcoin that people who come to this forum have!

Yeah it's a dream come true for me, put your CV in some places, you'd be surprised what can happen! I never would've thought I would be where I am today that's for sure Smiley

But I haven't been told by anyone to come on here,
I think every member who enters this forum is usually notified or invited by members who have registered. So how do you know abaut this frorum?

we are encouraged to get involved in the community as the company is run by bitcoiners to serve bitcoiners.
So you work for a market exchange company?

And about the role of Bitcoin that changed my life is that I know that there is an opportunity for me to become rich with bitcoin.

I looked up 'bitcoin forums' and here I am lol. We have a whole marketing team, many of our staff are on twitter and reddit, none of the team are on here because i came here from my own accord Tongue

I work for a bitcoin exchange company, we buy/sell limited coins (3) but concentrate all our efforts into marketing BTC. The company is one of the longest running exchanges that serves the UK, and our CEO and other OG staff are all bitcoiners, so I don't really understand why you seem so frustrated at the thought of me being on here. We all have the same goal of mass adoption, I am a marketer of Bitcoin as well as a marketer of CoinCorner Cheesy

It changed my life in a way that it allows me to earned some extra cash and do some investment. Before I don't have any funds left to buy BTC for the long term but now it allows me to earn BTC or get paid by other coins then converted it to buy BTC. So basically, I've got interested in trading and exploring anything about BTC and cryptocurrency stuff which is enjoyable and exciting to see. Now I'm still learning about trading and trying to explore and invest in other alternative coins to diversify my portfolio.

Yeah I agree 100%. I in the past used other coins simply to be able to purchase more BTC! I find it handy that you can also earn bitcoin cashback on online shopping, that's helped me stack sats through out the year without needed to think about it too much.

Excuse the link, but any UK/EU bitcoiners maybe unaware of this service and i think its really cool coz helps you passively accumulate BTC!

I've given up on trading tho FYI, i try and DCA now instead as turns out my market timing is awful lmao

Damnnnn, the sassssss.
The very first post on this forum, and you are promoting crypto exchange (wrapped up in a thread) and yet you get offended by being called for doing an obvious thing. Hell, you even said it by yourself that you are Coin Corner marketing executive. You are just doing your job I guess...but much learn you must, young padawan.




Not to defend the OP or anything but I don't think she was actually offended dude, no need to gatekeep newbies around the forum and get aggressive with it, welcome to the forum though!

After learning more about Bitcoin and Blockchain, I decided to learn more and study different cryptocurrencies as well, I further realized how much I was missing out back then before when Bitcoin peaked for the first time, but it's never too late to start I guess.

Yeah, deffo not offended, can understand his take tho!

And no it's never too late! I think there are so many signs which show how early we are, we are still in the minority, the rest of the world is still missing out

Hey I'm not offended! Yes I do marketing, but I haven't been told by anyone to come on here, we are encouraged to get involved in the community as the company is run by bitcoiners to serve bitcoiners.

It's a win win for me as I spend my spare time in the community anyways, I am genuinely interested in how peoples lives have been changed, and if in the process we get a little brand awareness, I see no harm in that Smiley So the grasshopper must ask, how has it changed your life? Tongue

lives change when you have some BTC and its price shoot to mars. if you only have few, your life still change since you have to watch out and pray for the price to go up.

coincorner is a philippine btc company, what is your role there? any position available to apply for?

CoinCorner serves the Philippines but we are based on the Isle of Man and our main market is the UK/Europe.

I am a marketing executive, and any job roles are on our website which is in included in the OP. I believe we do have one or two going at the mo. You might have seen me on BTC twitter @CoinCornerNaomi, or some other staff! We all try and engage with the community, as a lot of us our passionate bitcoiners Smiley

That's a good jumpstart and catchy discussion that you've made OP. Aside from giving the introduction of the exchange where you're working at, you have also made a good discussion. Well, bitcoin has changed my life for real. I didn't expected that holding it is truly a life changing decision although I'm not truly an expert in these matters but having an experience about it makes you aware of what's good to hold and what's in it store for us.

Why thanks  Cheesy

I think sometimes its nice to have a more lighthearted chat, we are all on here for the same reason, and I think it's nice to see how life changing Bitcoin can truly be. I was a bitcoiner before I got this job, and now I get to go to a job every day that I genuinely love. I love hearing other peoples stories, the community is one of Bitcoins greatest assets IMO.

Bitcoin brings me half shock and half hope. After I bought bitcoin, my assets fell by more than half. I had never experienced it before. I panicked and sold it. As a result, I missed the opportunity to accumulate wealth. Up to now, I only have a little bitcoin. I hope it will give me another chance to change my life.

Have you ever considered DCAing?? It can take out a lot of pressure and stress of trying to time the market. Whales know that the small fish can be shaken out by fear/emotion! DCA can help you slowly accumulate wealth too, instead of investing one large sum which again, can evoke emotions coming into play!

Good luck with your journey onwards.

My introduction to bitcoin has led me to discover a new definition of freedom and independence, which I didn't think existed financially. And of course; with greate power, comes great responsibility, so knowing that I can manage my finances myself (or a portion of it) has made me learn habits and hacks to safely do that.

Before Bitcoin and bitcointalk, I had only been exposed to regular social medias and messenger apps, but this forum has taught me lots of valuable lessons and I've met so may great users with lots of knowledge to share. The trolls also helps you grow a thicker skin along the way.
Congratulations on your job, it's by no means a pleb story and shows commitment eventually pays off. However avoid spamming the forum with links from your website as it annoys other members and could get your posts reported and deleted.

Ahhh okay, thanks for the heads up! Mainly posted just to show I was not speaking out of my a** lolll. Hahaha can definitely agree on the troll front, I spend a lot of my time on btc twitter, it can be rough out there lol.

Bitcoin definitely gives the sense of empowerment, and for me personally... hope!
