Ask HN: How has Bitcoin/Crypto/Blockchain affected your life, if at all?

2 points by ninjavis 8 years ago | 4 comments

I'm curious, with all the rage about cryptos going on, how has it actually affected your life?

I have been able to leave an office job and now live fully off my crypto income. And of course, I gladly share how I do it with anyone who is interested. I have the freedom to pursue passions and projects that I've always wanted because of this.

Are there any similar experiences you guys have to share? Would love to hear!

That's called getting lucky and rich. Your story has nearly nothing to do with cryptocurrency and more to do with winning the lottery. Please elaborate on the crypto part.

I have also made a sizeable amount from crypto, as well as other investments, but crypto is the most fun to follow. I have been inspired to create blockchain-type applications and use crypto in upcoming projects.

My next goal is to create an app that stops parking tickets via blockchain and common kindness.

Thanks, andirk! I am referring to mining. Using my income to purchase income generating assets has provided me said freedom.

I am also eager to learn about blockchain development in the near future. But for now, I am first focusing on finishing a different project of mine.

This is pretty accurate for determining mining income:
