In my time on the steemit platform, I have had the honor of interacting with a lot of people, both within and outside the country.
My goals and objectives have however swayed a lot from what I initially had when I first joined steemit.
My story on crypto and blockchain is a rather unique one.
My name being Destiny, I have always believed that I could achieve whatever I set my mind to do.
I heard about bitcoin and the likes for the first time around 2016, as I'm sure many many Nigerians would as well, I didn't put much attention to it because well, it was marketed alongside MMM and these other sets of Ponzi schemes.
Fast forward a few days or a week, and I first learnt about steemit from a friend.
He went to his cousin's place(whom many of yall will be shocked if I say his name) and from there, came back with the good news of what steemit was.
Like I keep on saying, I wish I had registered steemit in 2016 when I first heard it, probably things would have been a lot different for me.
I finally registered steemit in march 2017 and since then my journey has been one of enlightenment.
I have always said that steemit is a gateway into the world of cryptocurrency and blockchain technology.
While some people stopped at "enjoying" steemit, my drive to gain more knowledge and information, as well as a drive to combine my knowledge of music production and the positive attributes of blockchain technology has been the driving force to me exploring this new technological world of cryptocurrency.
Experiencing steemit and how blockchain/crypto has impacted me

In the 1 year and 5 months I have been on steemit, the world gained a different outlook in my eyes.
I saw a world that needed some desperate fixing, a world that was ruled by elites.
Crypto became a tool to push against the old ideas of centralization, of centralized power and wealth.
Steemit enabled me to spread the words of crypto to so many places within my country, I transformed from a kid selling multiple songs on fiverr for a few bucks, to a believer and evangelist of blockchain.
Over 8 states covered and thousands of people spoken to, steemit enabled me to be more than what anyone could say about me.

teaching steem and blockchain to entertainers
more meetups to train about steem
With my interactions with people here, I have brushed up my skills of negotiation, social interaction, knowledge dissemination, mentorship and many other leadership qualities.
The truth is, crypto saved lives, crypto transformed lives. Steemit has changed and elevated the lives of many, especially in third world countries.
My background of music production did take a hit initially, with me focusing all my energy into blockchain preaching.
However, the likes of 
The general concept of solving a problem, providing a way to solve a need as a prerequisite to greatness never changed.
The more I looked at it, the more I realized that decentralized institutions and decentralized companies could solve the problems that many face in the normal world, including in the world of music.
I have since gotten to work in hopefully providing a way for crypto and blockchain to solve some of the problems of music & music production.
The future
As early as 2014, I remember writing a plan for music production and how the next few years would be to my dad.
I needed funds to start up and I wrote a proposal to many family members and friends.
I needed capital, I needed help, and while many dismissed it as nonsense (the idea of being a music producer is just too alien for a 9-5 worker). My dad encouraged me to continue.
I have always wanted to impact on others, and even as a music producer, I want my songs to convey meaning.
I never wanted to be just an ordinary producer my goals is to use blockchain to get beyond that ordinary phase.
The recent addition to the sndbox team has only strengtened my resolve as I continue rsearching ways to help others.
With my studio ideas, Im hoping to provide avenue for young musicians and producers to learn blockchain and music, to be able to make impacts through these mediums.
I know nothing else for real and I am always open to learning and trying to maximize my skills, thats the philosophy I follow.
Blockchain and cryptocurrencies are world-changing technologies.
The future lies in these two concepts, and although it may not be exactly as we see it today, the future of freedom, of wealth, of everything belongs in the realm of digital asset.
