Demoray

I just joined Binance Square – Write to Earn, and this feels like the right place to finally put my crypto thoughts into words.
I’ve been following crypto, especially BTC, since around 2015, back when I was still in campus. What started as curiosity slowly turned into something deeper. Along the way, I grew interested not just in Bitcoin, but also in altcoins like ETH, BNB, SOL, USDT, and Polkadot.
Crypto hasn’t been a straight line for me. I’ve lost money, gained some back, and lived through cycles that were honestly painful—while others seemed to be celebrating. That’s part of the journey no one really prepares you for. Being a crypto enthusiast is tough, especially when every time you bring it up, people immediately say “scam” without trying to understand the technology or the ideas behind it.
I’ve been on Binance for a couple of years now, mostly learning, observing, and watching how the space keeps evolving. One thing is clear: this is a very different landscape compared to 2015. We’ve seen massive crashes, brutal bear markets, euphoric bull runs—and yet, the space keeps moving forward.
Sometimes, I won’t lie, crypto feels a bit like an addiction. I constantly have to stop myself from putting in more than I should. But there’s also a bigger reason I stay interested. I genuinely hope this technology can one day help ordinary people—especially in Africa and other underserved parts of the world. Fairer systems, better access, and a more honest distribution of resources.
Maybe that makes me a dreamer. Maybe crypto crashes someday and proves us all wrong. Who knows. Until then, many of us keep going—risking a portion of our portfolios, riding the emotional highs and lows, and learning as we go.
Grateful for Binance and Binance Square for giving people like me a space to share the journey.
