Hello Steemit.
My name is Jefferson Souza, I'm 18 years old and are from São Paulo, Brazil.
Today I come for this post to introduce myself to the whole community and tell a little of my history with crypto-coins and blockchain.
It all started in 2010, I was 10 when I heard the word "Bitcoin" for the first time, it seemed like something out of this world, a revolutionary means of paying for products and services, sending money to any part of the world quickly and almost gratuitously, well, come on, in 2010 I was 10 years old, my father owned a lan house, at that time putting on several computers was something that few people had, there were people who did not even own computers at home.
One day I was researching on bitcoin and discovered a magic word called "mining", logically that I started putting all the computers of lan house to mine bitcoin, at that time the price of the coin was quoted at 15 dollars, in one week the 7 computers of lan house mined on average 30 bitcoins, all the while I continued mining and doing hold with my coins, when the mining work on computers became obsolete I had in my portfolio a total of 276 BTC.
During that time I forgot the technology, in March of 2017 I sold 20 BTC, in December with the big BOOM of the bitcoin I sold 150 BTC giving almost 3 million dollars.
With this money I invested all in various currencies and mining, part of the money I have kept with me.
Today I live on my income and I am very happy with this technology that is still going to change the world.
The message that I pass to you today is the question of believing, just as I believed in bitcoin many of you today believe in STEEM, I also believe, one day I believe Steemit will be one of the biggest social networks in the world, the token STEEM will be worth several tens of dollars, today people who believe in it will do very well in the future, everyone is sure of that.
I created my account here at Steemit recently, I will publish articles about games, series, movies, gameplays on DTube and various topics on crypto-coins, so if you like the subjects I will address, I invite you to follow me.
A big hug to everyone and towards the success of Steemit!
