I went from living in a council estate to a multi-millionarie, my story.
It feels amazing honestly just securing my future in a way i could never imagine in 2022 its a massive blessing you could say, i've always wanted to write my story so others can see anything is possible, i don't regret anything that happened but its been a rollercoaster of emotions to say the least.
I started out playing Counter Strike Global Offensive maybe when i was 14/15 trading skins from legit nothing all the way to around $7,000 there is way more depth to this topic but to speed things up i know everything about the skin game of CS:GO it was my full on passion for years and to see it now with a total market cap around 6.3B is insane. But yeah it took many years in my teens to do it but i loved the entire process of it and i still Trade/Invest to this day.
So you might have guessed it was very fun just imagining leaving school/work/college to play a video game every single day, it was basically a dream for me, my routine was, wake up get ready for school/college, go to the gym then video games and locking in trading skins it was a day to day process but when you're doing something fun accumulating money it doesn't really feel like a job.
Skipping into the crypto side of things i believe i started in crypto just around the 2017 bullmarket when started to heat up, the only reason i heard about crypto was because users were cashing their skins out of CS:GO and putting it into Bitcoin.
Maybe the first time i ever heard the word Bitcoin was in 2016 when people were cashing out multiple Knives and throwing it into this unknown currency called Bitcoin that was around $400-$500 at the time.
Unfortunately i had no intentions in throwing my money into it without having an understanding of what it is plus i was a teenager so skins in a game that i play with everyday was just more fun, it basically a new way of flexing with these items in the game so you can imagine all my friends loved skins as well.
After that around 2017 i started throwing in my retail/kitchen porter job paychecks which was around $80 every two weeks into Coinbase buying $BTC, $ETH & other random tokens, i'm from a broken family background coming from a council estate so i got money off the goverment here and there to keep me going when i was 16+.
Throughout the 2017 bullrun my grandmother passed away and left me with around $3000 this money at the time was the most amount of money i've ever seen in my entire life so you can imagine i felt rich, but then i completely gambled into something called BITCONNECT. The biggest known ponzi of crypto in 2017 "Maybe you've seen the guy on the stage running around screaming BITCONNNNNECT" it funny to look back on how retarded it sounds.
The crazy thing about it is that i was making around $70 a day playing PUBG farming cases to sell on the steam market, i was making that $70 for months doing nothing just throwing it back in to make more.
Eventually the entire platform got shutdown and i lost everything but it was my first taste of crypto and i was completely addicted to becoming successful, it was a well off trade you could say, i ended up with a crippling addiction to crypto for $3000, thank you grandma.
So yeah i was completely hooked and motvated to becoming the person who would break the cycle of working the 9-5 everyday. If your asking, i took nothing out cause i kept seeing these snowball effect google spreadsheets saying i can make 500k with a year of staking lmao.
Anyway going into 2018-2019 bear market i began studying everything i could find on Youtube, a massive help was a guy called Benjamin Cowen (@intocryptoverse) funny enough i already just skipped the part of all these random clickbait channel thumbnails as i hated the one sided calling for a bull market for 2 years straight, no normie like myself back then can learn anything from these "oh the bear market will end in 3 months and Bitcoin will make a all time high type video".
I believe people like @MitchRayTA that actually teach TA changed my entire understanding on what you need to look for in a chart that everything is not just lines/nothingness, i also watched @realcryptoface that leverage trades but i never really got into it back then but this guy is funny asf i still watch him to this day for his stories and great opinions on the market.
But yeah i basically just get home from college watch Youtube videos, Gym, Counterstrike, Sleep. But through the years of being locked in my social life was going down hill and i become very depressed on just life and the meaning behind it all with all these words like purpose and where i wanted to go in life, so many people had i figured out but i had no fucking idea where i was going in life, i lost all my friends from school/college and had 3 real friends that have came with me through this entire journey, they're now well off trust me.
In 2018-2019 i got tired of trading skins manually so i decided to find other ways of trading, my good friend found a gambling site called CSGOEMPIRE this website would allow you to list skins for a higher percentage so i could basically cut out the P2P transaction as this was complete game changer and no one hardly even knew about it, every morning i'd get up manually snipe skins under the market and then the next week list them for 10% - 20%- 30% more, this is where my networth actually started moving into the thousands.
Eventually through the entire 2019-2020 i continued to work on my health while remaining to do the other stuff on the side, i went through psychology and anything that could get me back on track, i dropped out of college just as i was about to get my apprenticeship for painting, four years wasted but thankfully i had a supporting mother that helped me get back on my feet.
Now with this lining up with things the covid Bitcoin bottom was also on my fucking birthday, 12th of march that day family members gave me money and i bought Ethereum's bottom around $100 things started looking up for me around this time.
I was still trading on CSGOEMPIRE but i found a gambling site called Rollbit this website also allowed me to list things over the market so as i spent so much time there that i started to know the members of staff, eventually rolling around into May they offered me a job, nothing insane but it was $360 a week this amount of money changed my life instantly as i basically had 2 incomes from one place.
I decided with this money to begin only stacking ETH into a ledger as everything was to expensive for me, my goal was always to own one BITCOIN but at the time they were around $10,000 and i was not even close.
Throughout 2020/2021 i managed to get around 20-40 ETH i can't really remember the total amount but one thing for sure is all the websites i was skin trading on have been completely automated by a developer i met on Discord we're still friends to this day but this change helped scale my networth a huge amount i still have everything recorded in google sheets, we were one of the first 20 people if that to be able to do this i still remember buying my first Dragon Lore battle-scared like it was yesterday.
Now 2021 is my year of complete euphoria/dispear you can imagine i let things run automated all the way through until Feb-Mar 2021 i can't even put this into words but on my birthday i found a memecoin called Safemoon, i believe this token fully launched on the 7th of march but i can't find it anyway, two back to back years of luck, i've spoke about this to my friends as well, its just unbelievable looking back on things but one thing is for sure it was BNB season across the board.
I aped in my entire 14k CS:GO inventory into Safemoon knowing i could lose everything again.
I remember just sitting on my hands waiting for something to happen but all the restless nights speaking about plans and what i wanted to do in the future were about to pay off i wanted to be successful more than anything, i held my Safemoon bag for around 1 month and secured $380,000 profit in April 2021 at the time i never seen $20,000 so to skip the entire process was actually mindbending, i was so addicted and i wanted to hit 1m so badly that i went all in into another play called Bonfire this play i held onto until May of 2021 while my bag proceed to fly into the $1.6m range, i have no word here but i was staying up watching pancake swap for around 40-50 hours without sleeping, i've never seen peak euphoria like this in my life where 1m - 2m - 3m dollars buys were clipping into a memecoin chart on poocoin.
By the way i've traded thousands of memecoins in 2023-2025 and nothing comes even close to where 2021 had its peak, now lets get into the i want to kms part lol.
All the euphoria got into myself and my friends head instantly, cause i'm the bestfriend ever you know i got him in both Safemoon & Bonfire and made that mfer 500k, we thought it would last forever just infinitly going upwards and to the right, i'm pretty sure you can scroll down on my X and find the Safemoon/Bonfire bullposts.
Unfortunately it started to come to an end as in May 2021 on the 19th i believe a massive crash happened and my $1.6m position teleported to $780k, i still have the screenshot of the $1M in pancake swap from 2021, i will probs never do that again in my life.
I panick sold everything, i didn't know what to do but i wanted to get back to $1m so badly and this cost me also nearly everything as i was chasing every memecoin i seen.
Eventually after chasing for around 2 months i dropped to around 400k - 500k at this point, everyone was calling for it to be over in July 2021 but then we started to go back up for whatever reason and put the second top in which by this time i was going in circles trading to find some guidance but no one could provide me anything of valve as i was super stubborn and pissed off with myself that i just roundtripped generational wealth, i still had hundreds of thousands and it didn't even matter to me as all i wanted was that $1.6M back in my wallet.
Skipping forward i basically lost everything i had around 150k-200k left in 2022 Jan. I cba typing this part of the story out but i had an Axie Infinity scholarship program helping around 400 people make $1,000 - $2,000 a month that lasted around 7-8 month it was amazing maybe one of the best times in my life that i put my everything into it gave me purpose which i was seeking the whole time.
Unfortunately i put way to much of myself into it and gotten attached to helping people which then made me my roundtrip the rest of the funds in Axies Infinity as at its peak i was making around $90,000 a month but i always wanted that big solid $100,000 number which led me to getting cooked again, i decided to give up and quit everything with about $65,000 left and this was rock bottom for me.
Completely depressed not wanting to get out of bed everyday i went back to what i was good at Counter-Strike trading, i fumbled $1.6m at my peak which is a 114x on my $14,000, i knew it was inpossible to get it back since we were now in a bear market having Bitcoin set the low of $15,000's.
Skipping forward to 2023 Counter-Strike 2 came out which blow my profits out the water which was a blessing in disguise, the entire 2023 i traded with little hope left but wanting to hit my goals so badly, i've been consisant for over 7 years at that point which i could've just worked at mcdonalds and made more than 65k but i did not want to give up yet.
Profits where amazing in 2023 and it gave me hope, my networth ended at 160k going into Jan 2024 and in October 2023 i started my Telegram Channel journey recording everything i'm doing, basically like a journal of sorts called Exy's Lab.
Over the course of 2023-2025 i've been here since the start of the bull market with emotions going up and down but far to say i'm been through some shit to get here and i can whole hearted believe i deserve everything i got out of this cycle.
I've met amazing friends, changed a bunch of lives with my calls, great holidays, good vibes and profits along the way, my only take away from this is to never give up and be fucking consistent no matter the situation, i've improved on my trading abitities while continously networking within the space to grow my brand and to grow as a person.
I'm now at portfolio all time highs planning to buy my mother her dream house and all it took was roundtripping my entire bloodline networth multiple times over, years of sleepless nights, some depression here and there and a lot of fuckery but yeah it was completely worth it.
Good luck with your journey, i'm never fucking leaving crypto, soon 8 figs, trust me i'll get it no matter the amount of work i need to put in.
I love you all
