Hey world, I have decided to make On The Node a sort of journal or a place to just share my thoughts on things that might be going on in the world or my life. I wanted to share my other articles about new web3 platforms I come across but we can save that for BULB. I am going to make On The Node a little more personal.
Since this is the first article of the thoughts of Hatty, I thought I would keep it kind of short. So where should we start. I guess we will start with when I first started getting into Crypto and micro earning. I think the year was roughly 2014. You are probably thinking man this dude should have a ton of Crypto stocked up. Well that is no where near the case. Since these articles are going to be a little more personal I am going to tell parts of my life you can not find anywhere else. Ever since I was young a had a problem with wanting to alter the state of my mind and escape reality as much as I possibly could. Partying when I was young slowly turned into a almost life ending battle with the devil (addiction). I did not actually get off of drugs until the pandemic happened. It gave me a chance to sweat it out inside of my house and not have to worry about having the do the daily hustle of finding money and hooking up with the plug (aka dealer).
I had a troubled past and I think eventually I will start going into more detail and sharing some of the many stories of my drug fueled life. Either way, through my battle of addiction I lost a good amount of my electronics through either misplacing them when I was out of my mind or selling them to get out of my mind. It wasn’t until 2020 when I actually had the chance to settle down in the same place and start building something for myself. When I was getting high I was constantly on the move either trying to make money, trying to find somewhere to sleep, or trying to find dope. It has been a slow process but I have been building a small amount of Crypto up over the years. Just recently (well a little over a year now) I was able to find Tangled which has changed the game for me. It has given me a way to earn while still being able to give out rewards and stay active in the Crypto community.
I wanted to thank everyone for all of the support. I am not the most social person (I used to be) so this has been a struggle for me but I think it is coming together. I keep telling myself you will never get anywhere if you do not push yourself and do things that make you uncomfortable. The future will not make itself and the more you do something the easier and more comfortable it becomes.
I have some ideas for this blog and I am looking forward to getting it started. I am thinking of making it a sort of Hatty Crypto Journal. I will be posting more soon and will be talking about different topics from my thoughts on current topics and a bunch of other things. This first article is just a hello and a idea of what is to come.
