It is time I rest for a while. After months of sleepless nights and gaining weight, and looking like an ugly pig, I've decided to prioritize health till I feel better.
So DM's will be open, and I'll be off Twitter.

But before I go, I'd like to share my DeFi Story.
I started with $30K in December 2020.
I went with the usual crypto picks, BTC/ETH/LTC/BCH. I had no idea about DeFi back then, and I assumed everything with high interest is pretty much a scam.

One of my biggest mistakes was listening to @IvanOnTech this guy shilled be the dog shit of Crypto, my capital shrunk to $15K, I realized I am doing something wrong, *seriously wrong*.
I stopped watched scam Ivan's videos and switched to digging through stuff on Reddit.

But Reddit felt slow, and I stumbled upon various telegram groups, which eventually led me to start my anon account on Twitter.

First came across Compound, then Aave, but I was scared about how the APY is produced; it felt very scam-like.
Around that time, YFI farm was introduced to me, and I was like fuck it and threw in $10k
I was selling YFI as I earned it, which increased my capital to $30K.

Farming YFI made me understand things like token distribution and how lending protocols produce their APY.
My fear was gone; I went and purchased a bunch of YFI because the price was going up every day and started ape-ing into farms.

I also made it a practice to use coinbase listings as a free capital opportunity.
As soon as I get a listing notification, I purchase the asset and dump it 24 hours before they opened the orderbooks at CB.

Then came the food farms. I was shocked, fucking free money, all hail fair launches, and token distribution!
This, as a combination, increased my capital to six figure zone!
Followed by a YFI listing on coinbase... I dumped 3 YFI and kept 2.

Then came the crash, my portfolio overnight went down to suicide levels.
(Mostly $AAVE $YFI & $ETH)...
I had some stables to feed me for a year or two, so I held, things got better.
Things got insanely better, fuck me, I never imagined $AAVE at $150, let alone $340 JFC.

I'm skipping a lot of stuff like doubting myself and puking in the toilet out of regret (during the crash)

But yeah, it's an exciting journey, and I will forever be a part of this. But I think before the market needs to cool off, I need to cool off.
So I'll catch you guys in a few more weeks. (2 years in DeFi timezone).

Before I go, I like to mention all the people who helped me.
I don't know why you guys helped me, but I am so thankful for it and your friendship.
Even if I had made $0, I am glad I met you guys.

Special thanks to Devs!!! The people who keep the party running <3
@AndreCronjeTech / @bantg $YFI paid my dad's hospital bills and gave me Uni Money.
@chefcoverage $SAFE mining added significant $ to my portfolio.
@AaveAave $AAVE leverage got me out of a market crash.
