"I AM AN IDIOT" was my first thought. No wonder only podcast guests and hackers can do this shit.

Several months ago I listened to a Joe Rogan podcast featuring Andreas Antonopolous and although I had heard of Bitcoin that was about it. From that Podcast I set up a bitwage account and a week later sure enough my payroll deduction had been converted to Bitcoin but the only problem was I had no idea where it was. I had just sent part of my paycheck into the interwebs and I had no idea where it went. I AM AN IDIOT was my first thought. No wonder only podcast guests and hackers can do this shit.

OH Thank Heavens

YOU apparently have the POWER to earn ME Bitcoin with one click

Someone is out there YAY! Not sure if it's cool to put his contact info out there but since its a business I figure there's no such thing as bad press and as you can see its a good company that looks out for rookies.

In order to receive my bitcoin I needed a wallet which I had read about but also didn't fully understand. So I set up an account at Coinbase and got a wallet. At this point I was starting to wonder about the amount of information I was spreading around to unknown sources but then I thought, Fuck it. So after a mere 4 e-mails I received my bitcoin and once again had no fucking clue what to do now, but felt good that I did something.

I didn't do anything for a month then looked at my balance on Coinbase when I saw a story on cnbc that Bitcoin may break $1,000. It is then that I noticed I have a Bitcoin balance but what is this Ethereum?

So I looked online duh? Oh its another crypto-currency. I googled "how to exchange bitcoin for ethereum" I happened upon the Cryptoverse podcast by Chris Coney in my search and I gave it a listen and learned I could use Shapeshift and a few minutes later I had Ethereum. I have been listening to the Cryptoverse which is how I learned about Steem and Steemit.com where I became the newest minnow in the pond.

and how I learned about Supload.

It's a decent spot to house some photos and my whopping $0.0020 is based on 5 views so I just need 2495 more views and I will be at the $1.00 minimum to withdraw my bitcoin haha!

I still don't know what I am doing or what I will do in this new world but it sure is fun and folks sure are friendly.
