First post 1/4.
My first $1 on-chain wasn’t DeFi. No airdrop. No “click here, receive yield.”
I earned it the old-school way: mining Bitcoin at my dacha
August 2018. Rural peace, a house I actually like… and mobile internet that works only when it’s in the mood 😅
It starts with a call from a friend:
“Hey, you’ve got a dacha, right? Can I install my server there?”
In my head: a neat little PC.
Me: “Sure.”
We arrive, he opens the trunk… and his “server” looks like a renovation project.
He pulls out drywall, bricks, a huge metal box (basically a safe), two big boxes, and a bunch of smaller ones.
I’m thinking: “Either we’re mining BTC or building a panic room”
Then he goes:
“Two ASICs. Bitmain Antminer S9j.”
And immediately turns into a gold-rush prophet:
“Bitcoin is digital gold. These ASICs are our shovels. We’re gonna be rich.”
I’m already mentally shopping for a yacht.
Read the continuation in the next post.
