I was in here in the Midle of 2019. So, i don't have a story in this forum in the beginning of 2019.
My success stories, i think about the art contest. Reach morw than 250 merit and earn btc from contest is my best 2019 story in here.
There is not about i win or not but with that contest, now i have enough merit to rank up Sr. Member. And Thanks to few users in here who request want to i draw and give me free bitcoins.
Congratulations in advance because in about 4 months, you would have gotten enough activities to rank up to senior member, this is a rank that many people do not get a chance to ever reach because of the merit system but you already qualified even when you don't have enough activities to rank up, this and the free Bitcoin is one of the best testimonies I have seen so far, keep it up, hardwork does pay.
For me personally, every year since I became interested in Bitcoin has been successful, and this one is no exception. Although I am not a trader, all that I have earned over the years is worth several times more today. Especially the profit that was made in 2014/2015 when the price was quite low compared to today. My $200 investment is turned to $20 000 in 2017, but I still hold and sell some this year for x50 profit, which served to fulfill some of my wishes and have a very successful year.
I think it is very important to be patient and not invest money that you are not ready to lose. That way, you can hedge against some big losses, and if Bitcoin continues to follow the established pattern, you can make a lot more profit than saving money with the bank.
One can never go wrong with Hodling Bitcoin!.
