What was that singular pivotal moment that made you dive into cryptocurrency?

I’d love to hear about people’s origins stories, what their first coins were, and how they are doing now given the current market conditions.

Mine is boring. I’ve always been intrigued by cryptocurrency, but never bothered to learn about it, never took it seriously.

That same day, I downloaded Reddit and spent hours on this sub. Feeling bold and restless, 2AM of the following day, I downloaded Binance and bought my first 3 coins which I randomly picked from all the ones being shilled here a lot: ALGO $1.9, LRC $3.2, ONE $0.26
