➡️Breaking Out of Poverty This is the story of a Korean degen who spent most of his life just trying to survive. Not a motivational fairytale. Just a real path. He did every kind of physical job you can imagine. Construction, warehouses, night diners, handing out flyers, standing in costume, helping in a sushi kitchen. Almost no days off. Almost no rest. Home did not feel like home, just a place where you made it through the night. At some point, he discovered crypto and airdrops. He started farming everywhere he could. • 300 Google accounts • 300 Twitter accounts • 300 Discord accounts • all managed manually • months of work with no guarantees Most of the projects are already forgotten. Many paid nothing. It felt like trying to break a stone with an egg. The first real money came from Ethena and a few other drops. Life got easier, but the stress stayed. One wrong click could still wipe weeks of work. In 2024, he found Hyperliquid. He hesitated for two months and paid for it later. After the airdrop, volatility spiked. He sold spot and reopened exposure on futures with small leverage, which meant liquidation risk. Because of that, he barely slept, checking the position every hour. He closed part around $15 and sold the rest near $50. Then came Lighter. Liquidation farming. At first it felt unreal. 100 to 200 points per week seemed too easy. Then it got harder. Fear of account wipes, constant pressure. Still, he pushed through to around 3000point (~ $150,000). After the TGE, he finally allowed himself a short pause. Good food. Alcohol. Cars. Clothes. Sometimes it still does not feel real. He wrote this to remember the road he walked. And to make sure he never goes back. If you feel stuck, it is not the end. If you survive long enough, you win. ✅Subscribe to@cryp
