Bro I’m rooting to be able to turn my failure story into a success. Like I’ve said before, I’m not at rock bottom, but pretty fucking close. However that just makes the success coming WAYYY more sweeter 🙏🏽🦁😤 ---

Great read @Merlin-M-Ostermann. I see you have been in the game for quite some time now and it makes sense considering your involvement in Ambient Network. Interesting that you have a defense mechanism for you house and just by that I can tell that you are a very interesting person to hang with. ---

Hi @lochie2001, i see you too have a somewhat interesting past. I guess we all here in crypto go though the a similar initiation path. Its actually quite surprising how much you have gained and then lost. Stay strong as good things come to those who wait. ---

Hi @RJMG, wow you too have a interesting story and again similar struggles. I guess this world of crypto is our way out. ---

thank you very much wake!! It means a lot to me that you read my story. Of course I would love to be able to be in a J&J session but I already said it in the publication…I don’t know English and I use the translator a lot so it makes me very angry not to be able to express myself how I want to be able to truly connect with the person who sees me 😅 ---

What a dope thread! I am TheCrown (comes from the meaning of my given name, have fun with the riddle). Ive been in crypto since 2016/2017. I’m not an innovator, and definitely not as cool as some of the other cats here… but i like to wonder and am somewhat of an idealist. I started in ETH and Alts early on… I remember when BTC was well under 1k, and stupid me never thought it would get to 10k let alone FRIGGIN’ 70K!!! (I’ve lost hair over this). So… of course what did I do? Didnt buy BTC, bought a decent amount of ETH and threw it into Alts. Bought BIG into WaltonChain (WTC) which posed a real world use for blockchain, had patented devices to use for Supply Chain, secure RFID tracking. GREAT idea… until it wasn’t… lost far too much in that debacle and basically all my other alts during crypto winter… but sure did learn a lot. Luckily i still had about 10 ETH left, just sat on it and forgot. Shoulda been stacking the whole time, but i was getting married and building a family. A worthwhile endeavor at least! Finally started making enough money to be able to think about investing again, albeit not a ton. This time it would be different… BUT!!! ETH was SUCKING… what do??? Where was the money going? Aha! Moving to better chains of course. In prances SOL! I sold about half my ETH to support buying a house and bounced the rest into SOL and BTC. BEST DECISION (maybe i did learn something after all) A HEROS TALE! Just kept buying BTC and SOL, but then… JUP!!! A monster of a project, a whale of an idea by this crazy dude that calls himself the sound a cat makes?! IM IN, thats all I need! I believe in the DAO and what we are building here. My foundational idea for this DAO and JUP is to understand what the purpose is. Ive said it before but will say it again. We are building an EMPIRE, this is a long term plan. JUP doesnt just want to eat the market caps of other projects it wants to be a part of those market caps, to truly be a universal project. This is our trajectory… keep it close and lets do this together! ---

That’s what everyone keeps saying all the cadets have my back so just gotta keep reminding myself of that. ---

Hey bro, writing about feelings after a sad event like this can be incredibly therapeutic because it allows you to process and release emotions that might otherwise feel overwhelming. Putting thoughts into words can bring clarity, help you understand your own feelings, and begin the healing process. Sharing these experiences with others can also be impactful, as it can foster connection and provide support to those who may feel alone in similar situations. Thank you for sharing your experience; your openness not only helps you heal but also supports others who might be going through something similar. Like you logically stated, many would love to be in your position after all these. That takes a lot of courage, insight and wisdom to realise. You are a winner in many ways and you will win again​:blue\_heart:💙💙 ---

Thank you my brother! You have always been super supportive of me and the fact that I don’t know any of you guys personally yet you still take time out of your day to send me kind words means the world. I really mean it. Jup 4 FUCKING JUP​:green\_heart:💚 ---

Having perfect English isn’t necessary for J&J by anymeans, We can also work around you, perhaps a short recorded interview would be OK for you?
