I am most happy to announce to the community that i am celebrating my latest achievement on this forum which is making it to the rank of a Hero member.
My Story - My Journey On July, 2016, I found my way to this forum through a crypto related search on google and with the help of
Dalecoin Dev who was a member of the forum before me with another account which I cant remember the username right now, though i believe both accounts are now inactive, this user was the one who helped me get around the forum then and later, he introduced me to the first crypto project i invested money in through this forum which later turned into Scam, you all can check out the thread of that project
HERE. I lost almost all my savings on that project but with my never giving up spirit and love for cryptocurrencies, I continued to stay on the forum and started participating on Airdrops and bounty campaigns since I didn't have money to invest in the ICOs then, the Airdrops and bounties was, as at that time, my major reason of being on this forum - though not any more as a lot of things have changed in my life.
By 2017, I got tired of all the scam airdrops and bounties that amounted to nothing after receiving the token in the wallet, I managed to raise a little amount of money and started day trading on Poloniex, ( back then, poloniex was the biggest cryptocurrency exchange) and I decided to take a break from the forum.
I was away till around August 2020 but in-between that period, I hopped on on the forum one day around 2019 and discovered that Merit has been introduced to the forum, and that it has become the major means through which one can rank up, for about one week, I tried to see if I can earn some merit but I didn't earn any, I got discouraged again and continue my break
, I believe the month of August, 2020 was the month I came back to the forum fully after a google search on something lead me to a thread here which after reading, I decided to login and continue with my account, is started participating in bounty campaigns in the altcoins board again and paid zero attention to earning merits or ranking up for quite some time, at some point, I became interested in ranking up and after going though many threads on how to earn merits, I decide not to pay attention to merit anymore but to just focus on making quality posts and sharing what I know could be of benefit to others, surprisingly, the merits started rolling in little by little, And am happy that today that i made it to a rank of a Hero member.

MY ADVICE TO THOSE WHO NEED IT I honestly have not much to say here as my story above already contains a lot of lessons which anybody can draw advice from, But to make everything complete, i would say, Never give up, the community on this great forum is like a two edged sword, how you use it will determine the outcome of your stay here, if you use it well, it will help you get to the top, if you decide to use it the wrong way , you will destroy your stay here, the choice is yours to make.
