Bitcoin self-rating

[Obari]

Bitcoin  had been one of the best things that have ever happened to me and the same thing also applies  to the forum (bitcointalk.org) in general and I can't even imagine what my life would have been without the forum and bitcoin and there was a thread where someone asked if it was possible  to name one's  child after bitcoin  and the thread discussion just popped up my mind after reading this thread and I think I wouldn't even mind naming my child after bitcoin  if my wife approves of it.

Long story short, bitcoin  has helped my life in several ways especially  via the financial aspect and the forum has shaped me real hard to be a real man and I'm forever grateful to Satoshi and the forum and it's admins and moderators.

Bitcoin and Bitcointalk? This pair has made a big impression on me. There are no "get-rich-quick" schemes going on here, mate. I see Bitcoin as a shift in the way money works, and this forum as the driver's seat.

My rating? Let's just say I went from being a crypto-newbie to a crypto-enthusiast faster than Bitcoin's bull run in 2017. But what a ride! Even the crashes taught me something, like the nights I couldn't sleep because I was watching the news.

Educated about money? Check. Every time I add a Satoshi, I feel the weight of being in charge of my own money. It really gives you power. What's my place in the world? Well, let's just say that Bitcoin has helped me go from being Joe Average to being Joe Financially-Aware.

I've learned a lot about privacy from reading about pseudonymity and anarchy. Wallets, mixing devices, Tor... I'm playing the ultimate game of hide and seek because of Bitcoin. So, yeah, a big deal?

So the big question is,  how will you rate yourself since your involvement and interaction with Bitcoin and bitcoin talk as a community,  have you become more financially educated resulting in your consistency in building a financially free future by accumulating Bitcoin and spending less and investing more,  or have you become more Conservative in your approach taking Bitcoin as get a rich quick scheme that will always end you in frustration?

What have become you financial life and status in the society and how have you managed your privacy using Bitcoin?

On my way to financial freedom in the future, if I  continue to hold on to my bitcoin investment until when the bull run start.
My life has transformed as a result of learning about bitcoin through this forum, whether it be in terms of bitcoin investment or any other kind of investment. The forum has widened my knowledge to now see investing in bitcoin as a strategy that can eventually set someone free financially. If the person is persistent enough to trust the price movement of bitcoin without panicking and selling during a bear market, he will succeed in it when the bull run comes

As for me, and as with everyone here my journey started with bitcoin. Knew about it from an internet ad and then proceeded to visit this forum back then only for knowledge and proper advices as I try to brave things out (this was still in 2016 and I'm nothing more than a broke high school kid with supportive parents) and when I finally mustered the courage to take the leap and invest in crypto it was with bitcoin and the money I earned from signature programs in the past. From there I grew in knowledge and experience.

I'd say working with cryptocurrency now, My self-rating is around 95%. I know the ins and outs of the industry (except mining which to me is still a general mess even though I dabbled with GPU mining in the past) and as I transition into working for Web3, I'm bound to learn more about the crypto world.

I was hoping to see some sort of scale to define individual ratings in respect to the entire bitcoin innovation but in the absence of any particular scale, I’ll invent one for myself and that be; on a scale of 1 - 10, I’ll rate myself to be 6. Possibly because I don’t want to give myself a 5 but be way above average but then, the technical part about the whole innovation is still unraveling and until then, I’ll rate myself somewhere around average.

On the whole, bitcoin have in many ways impacted the way I approach almost all that concerns me and life itself. It’s teachings about privacy raises a lot of concerns as to how I fill forms online and offline, what details to sort out for on documents, T&C of concerns and how to approach investment opportunities.
