I became Independent Because of Cryptocurrency

[Obari]

Patience to hold is a virtue and perseverance with consistency is a major key that drives people to greater heights and also conquer fear.
Firstly I want to say congratulations for trusting the process and believing in Bitcoin. Bitcoin has always saved people in time pass and it's still saving more people which you can testify to this.
I'm glad you saw your future with Bitcoin and one thing I always tell people is to hold their ground and figure out a particular area of life they're good at and make ends meet through that and just be contented.
From your picture it seems you trade futures
Do you trade futures?

Im sure this is not an easy road for you same with me I also lost huge amount of money from trading and from holding my alts last 2018 when bear market comes I have really no idea about this after I realize I lost too much and from that mistake I learned a lot so instead of quitting crypto I still continue and make money from trading, bounty hunting, airdrops until now, btw Congrats mate keep going to a road for financial freedom.

Am I missing something here?

Someone opens a thread claiming to be trading and making about $100 a month with crypto and not only gets 13 merits so far, but the thread is on its way to becoming a spam megathread with lots of congratulations.

Good luck to the OP, but trading "crypto" with a bankroll of a few hundred $ to make $100 a month has a near 100% chance of bankruptcy in the medium term.

OP, you will have an easier and less risky way to earn a few hundred dollars a month with signature campaigns.

I am not sure if that $300 worth of bitcoin is all or just a small part of your overall crypto portfolio. But judging by the looks of the service whose pictures you posted in the OP, I would say you keep your coins on Binance. If that's just your trading wallet, then it's OK since you need that money at your fingertips to get in and out of various positions. But if you are using that Binance account as your personal wallet, then you have a lot more to learn.

- You don't have custody of your own coins.
- You don't own the keys of your coins.
- You are completely dependent on a 3rd-party to manage your funds.
- Whatever you saved up in all these years can be lost in case of a hack or if Binance thinks you broke their rules/terms.

Take control of your money asap!

Some forks fine it easy to trade cryptocurrency but I don't have the boldness to trade not even Bitcoin, I will rather focus more on less risky ways to make some Bitcoin such as buying Bitcoin at a low price and holding it in my cold wallet for a long time let say a space of 2 to 3 years to make a significant profit.
The truth is you don't have the guarantee of making profits in trading and there is every possibility of not coming out with your capital but if you have some good trading skills then you can make profits but building those trading skills is not easy to come by that is why most people choose to either buy and hold for long term bases.

I have nearly the same story with bitcoin because helped me to become independent just a few years ago when I had to work so hard for a small amount of money my girlfriend said me about bitcoin on my birthday and that was my starting day when I started investing on bitcoin and I did my first crypto investing, bitcoin changed my life and now I earn money from bitcoin by many methods and I could get enough money for living just by investing on bitcoin.

Most of us has this kind of story in crypto where cryptocurrency became a tool to achieve a big step in our lives. I also have the same story of becoming independent because of cryptocurrency. I learned so much thing after I started learning cryptocurrency, To be honest I don't know what am I today if I haven't learned cryptocurrency. My friends are just amazed when I tell them my story on how I started on cryptocurrency how I became independent because of it. This is a big part of my life now because on how I spend my time still learning it since cryptocurrency is still evolving and knowledge and trends will never stop.

[LogitechMouse]

It seems like you are earning money thru trading on Binance and that's good. I also tried but I failed. Many tried but many failed as well.
You know what's happening now, right? The problem with Centralized Exchanges including Binance. I mean the reputation and the trust to these CEX went down because of FTX. I'm not saying that you need to transfer your coins in a hardware wallet since it looks like you are earning thru trading but just be aware in case things went worse.

You're not the only one who is experiencing this. There are many including me. I'm not totally independent right now but at least I can buy some of the things that I want and at the same time, I can also pay bills here in our home thanks to cryptocurrency.

Can I ask if you are only earning cryptocurrency thru trading "ONLY" and nothing more?

[Bitstar_coin]

The joy of being able to cater for your personal needs without needing the support of your parents is very fulfilling. It feels as though you have achieved the whole world. And the respect you get....... pure joy.
Congrats OP on your road to become a self independent man, it may seem small to others but to you it is a great achievement.  Keep doing what you do and work hard to earn more enough to support the rest members of your family.
Do take the advice of others and store your funds in your own personal wallet for better security. Good luck.

I know this is just silly story but I want to tell you that my bitcoin journey is not fascinating but here I want to tell.
In 2017 I started Bitcoin trading and also got skeptical in crypto. I lost too much much money but I got resilient. Cause I know that their is a future for me in this.
After late 2019 beacsue I took admission in university and now I am  independent and I do not need Money from my parents and that's good for me. I started making Money from crypto. I am And that was joy for me. Now I am making 100 dollars plus form crypto. That is enough for me.

Success stories are good reads every time. The amount of people that got their lives turned around for the better due to bitcoin is just immense and their stories are always welcome, so as to inspire people to do the same albeit in different ventures if ever, and ultimately to remove negative stigmas that have been attached to bitcoin and cryptocurrency.

For that matter let me share you a story of my friend who became a multi-millionaire and an affluent figure because of cryptocurrency. He started small as well, just like us, but with the support from his family and his never-ending perseverance, in a few short years he was able to gather the fruits of his labor. Now he's affluent, able to buy and do whatever he wants, and is pushing and inspiring people to do things his way through programs he had made. Truly an amazing lad.

It's great that you're now financially independent. But you might want to get your coins out of Binance, considering how exchanges these days are falling left and right. You don't want to lose all that hard-earned money, now do you?

My suggestion is to save up for a hardware wallet and the move your coins there.

That's a golden advice. That's what came on mind after seeing the screenshot of binance. I mean 6 hours is still big time he hasn't moved the coins directly to hardware wallets. Well if it is going to be savings account and hard earned money, dam; that's gonna go in the hardware wallet without any second thought. I also had similar ways of keeping money on the exchangers, first reason was easy to trade right on the spot, or may be exchange with my local fiat and get the money and thus to avoid those 2-3 steps of accessing your wallet, plugging it in and sending the coins.

However, I also got similar advice from forum fellow members, and I am thankful that I have not been victim of any exchanger since then.

This is good piece of advice - from the experience.

Now I am making 100 dollars plus form crypto. That is enough for me.

I don't know the country you live, if $100 can do many things in this era of recession. I will advice you double your efforts and try to earn more because $100 may not be as enough as you think.

I want to tell you that I am living in Pakistan, I know that is not rich but still it helps me very well. Cause here wages are almost less and also expenses. I also know that In United States 1000 dollars per month earnings is still poor. Here in our country at least 150 to 200 dollars earnings per month is good. But still I am trying to earn at least 200 dollars plus so that it might help my financials very well.

Good to know... 1 Pakistan rupee = $0.0044. Which means $100 will be about 25,000 Pakistan rupees. This is a good income and earning in your country. It can keep you comfortable while you continue increasing your earnings. It will be more sufficient if you are single because a family man will have more bills to pay.

Congratulations to you once again, now you have found how to earn in crypto and bitcoin especially, it will be fine if you will teach your friends to also earn so that you will have a good circle of friends.

Nice with your achievement how became independent because of cryptocurrency, I hope you can consistency with trading profit in crypto after reading not all us have lucky moment always earn profit in Bitcoin or altcoin trading. You have been lucky with your fund holding at Binance after FTX collapse and your fund still securing.

You can increase up your earning more than $300 in a month, I think with cryptocurrency always have bigger opportunity keep increasing your income when correct researching about which potential altcoin for investing.  Keep quit with lucky moment not always with us if you can read many people loss their money when investing in Bitcoin after facing panic moment and selling their assets in lower price.

[usekevin]

Many people earning the good money from the crypto currency and become a financial independent from the additional money.People with good earnings will start to inverse their money an double or triple the money.Because crypto trading helps to double or triple the money was good idea to earn more money.But without analysis the market and create your own strategy will not allow to win some money from it.

[landheer]

your topic is very interesting and honestly I feel happy because you have succeeded in investing in crypto, and hopefully this will be an example for our friends who are new to bitcoin, namely that they will be enthusiastic about learning to invest in bitcoin, and also for all of us. and you are a great person because you are able to face challenges in bitcoin and it is rare for people to succeed in facing challenges in crypto. including myself, I often make mistakes in investing, one of which is always panic when the price drops, and I'm always unable to hold back. finally selling at a low price and finally the loss is what my get.

and I want to congratulate you. because it has been successful in your investment.

That is what worries me about the stories I read about people trying to make money in this market, anyone can make some money once in a while, however very few can earn enough out of the markets to sustain themselves and do so with some level of consistency.

If the OP has achieved this already and he can still make money in the market despite the difficult months we have experimented recently then there is little doubt that once things improve his profits will increase as well.

[xSkylarx]

I am wondering how the OP is getting on right now? I am sure he was busy at the university, is he still able to trade or what? Also, how is he catering to the current bear market? The story of the traders I've known is almost the same; they tend to lose but are eager to try again; they are also breadwinners, so they provide for their families. I salute you on your journey to become independent; please continue doing it, and don't forget to visit or call your mother and father; I am sure they are very proud of you.

I love reading stories of how or what bitcoin has help young people to achieve over a period of time. Bitcoin is like a catalyst that I was taught in my high school Chemistry. A catalyst speeds up the rate of a reaction. Bitcoin is helping the younger generations achieve financial independence faster than it would have been at a regular job. What I love about the OP's story is not the amount he makes but it is a decent story that shows consistency and the true reality of what is involved in trading. It is unlike the ones I read on the internet that blown out of proportion where the person would say he/she makes $1k every hour and has never lost any trade.

[EarnOnVictor]

I know this is just silly story but I want to tell you that my bitcoin journey is not fascinating but here I want to tell.

The story might be silly to you, but not to me, it's such that I love to read. I love it when people are making headway because of crypto, it makes me happy as this uneven society where the rich is becoming richer and the poor are becoming poorer needs something like crypto to caution narrative. I hope more people could unlock the benefits of cryptocurrency to change their status for good. Many could not even get what they will eat to bed, but with crypto, the story might change with little help and orientation.

The most common story of a man who has become an adult. The fact that you have perseverance and stubbornness in you OP speaks of this. Adult children should not depend on their parents, but on the contrary, they should be a support to them in old age. But do not stop improving and saving on your safety. Once having spent money on a hardware wallet, or regularly learn about all the nuances, it will become an additional lesson and support for you.
