Rebirth - Pushing Myself to Regain My Writing Strength - Introduction

Hello to the entire Hive Community!

I have waited very long to be back here and actually to take this bold step, due to my long and not so easy to remember name on my other account Hive account@anikys3reasure. The City of Neoxian owner Mr. Dragon and all of my friends on Hive suggested that I have an easy to remember name. I have always wanted to change this name but as we all know, it is not possible to do that on Hive and I do not want to start from the beginning building a new account, I should have done this about 4 years ago when I realized that friends have difficulty remembering my username. They all came up with Aniky from my name and Bee as what they call me in the city of Neoxian to make Hive account@anikybee.

Mr. Dragon gifted me this account by creating it for me and I want to say a big thank you for that. I did not post using this account in the last 6 months because of my issue with Hivewatcher, being an open person, there's no point hiding my new account to earn rewards, I wanted to resolve the issue with them in other to do a proper reference to my previous account and let the entire community know that I am the same person and the reason I have a new account.

My intention with this account is to resume personally blogging, post about myself, my journey traveling around the world and getting used to other people's culture, languages and the difficulties it brings. As for my previous account Hive account@anikys3reasure, I will only do crypto, investment related blogging on it but not anytime soon. I only waited to resolve the issue because I respect the community and to show I am not an abuser.

Thanks to Mr. Dragon for vouching for me and following up with Hivewatcher to let it out of Blacklist, even though they still request more evidence from SKALE after so much had already been provided in the past, which I will still try my best to have SKALE respond to if I know who they had sent it to.

Little About Myself Again

My name is Balqees, I am Nigerian, currently residing in Germany, even though I chose to go school in Ukraine. I was studying in Ukraine before the war started and of course we all had to run for our dear lives. I had to move to a place not so far from Ukraine thinking the war will end soon, Ukraine was already home for me and It was a peaceful place overall but the fate is the fate.

The post war trauma was crazy, I battled emotional stress and mental health was damaged, I lost a lot to the war, I could not even look back at all I left behind. It affected my studies but I must appreciate people who were more than family during this time, my Neoxian City family especially Mr. Dragon, My close friends and other people checking up on me from time to time and making me feel loved. The post war trauma was so serious, I couldn't celebrate my last birthday. Below is a picture I took on my last birthday.

My Journey on Hive and Crypto

I started learning about Crypto and Blockchain in 2017, I was introduced by an online friend I never met till today even though he has always been a good friend. Hive gave me so many good friends in the last 6 years, I made not less than 250 friends from Hive over the years. We've all been through the thins and thick together, so many people left but I stayed behind on Hive because of the writing addiction and Love for HIVE. During my learning years on HIVE, I learnt to play Splinterlands game from the city of Neoxian (Inspiration from Mr. Dragon), and I can say I play really well.

In the crypto space generally, I have done lots of research and have worked for not less than 15 projects as an ambassador mostly at their early stage in spreading the words around for them. The few I have worked for are ** Near Protocol, Polygon Network, Atomic Wallet, Newdex** and still currently with SKALE as an ambassador and Africa community manager.

I have contributed a lot to the Africa/Nigeria crypto space around 2018-2019 when we created a group of us that go to universities in Nigeria preaching crypto to young minds. We call this journey Blockchain Road Trip. Students from this events are now graduates who are crypto enthusiasts, Tech guys, Developers and UX designers. That's a success recorded. I have people I personally tutored and most of them can now stand on their own as crypto/blockchain enthusiasts, some became UX designers and developers who traveled out of Nigeria for better opportunities.

I have also trained so many to become traders, how to use traditional exchanges and DEXs or make money from Arbitrage. Till today I still help the people that I can into the crypto space and I am happy to announce my growth as a graphic, UX designer and a LOW code developer.

I am happy to return on HIVE after going through a lot over the last years. I want to appreciate my Neoxian City Families again, I won't be tagging any of them so as not to disturb their peace.

Thank you Mr. Dragon, Xawi (baby), Burl, Sayee, Shrazi, Vic, and others. I love you all and can't appreciate you all enough.

I appreciate every support from the community and open to new friendship. This is my story and I will write more about myself here.

Thank you.
