Well my crypto journey is a fun one starting from winning $1.5 from a trading platform to being scammed back to back on telegram due to useless airdrops and becoming a streamer.

MY CRYPTO ORIGIN STORY: A FOUR YEAR SAGA OF JOY AND SADNESS

Well firstly my name is wiseone i am a Nigerian crypto enthusiast lol that was my initial pitch i gave to people to introduce myself in spaces after a failed 1 year after trying to sell my ai generated images as digital arts. Oh you don't know the story let me take you back to the beginning so my first experience in crypto was when i won 2,000 naira worth of Bitcoin in 2021 which was like $1.50-$2, I think around August from a crypto trading platform just advertising themselves in Nigeria. That ignited something in me and i did not know why but it actually did the technology seemed new and i like learning new things, So i went to church that Sunday and i saw a dude showing people a bored ape and i was intrigued and i told him one thing i could buy this with enough hardwork and also i have the feeling i can make my own collection, so i went home looked through youtube and saw people talking about opensea from youtube videos and this period was when opensea was allowing individuals to mint their works for free gas-less without paying any fees which was dope, I could not draw for shit even though i was doing architecture at that point but i decided you know what i would use AI to generate dope ass imagery and videos and put them on opensea in which i did. I created my first collection it's name was LOST SOULS V1 collection nothing sold all are still on opensea just floating around the blockchain in a wallet i have no access to and if they sold tommorrow i can't access anything LOL, after lost souls i created Life Of Seun collection lol, then i stoped creating and focused on architecture crazy.
Then cam 2023 i was full of energy i had new ideas and dope concepts and i was like ain't nobody going to stop my shine innit was i wrong, So beginning of 2023 i dropped a collection Holographic daniels just hand drawn pictures of a single head with different backgrounds and effect on it lol a crazily bad concept, Then in september i dropped the first non AI collection ever by me FIXXIES this collection in my head was the collection that would take me out of the trenches, I was already imagining talk shows, sport cars, calls, this and that but once again i was humbled also during this period was when i started going on spaces with my caption at that point "HI I AM WISEONE I AM NIGERIAN AND I AM A CRYPTO ENTHUSIAST", piece of advice to anyone new to the X crypto space remove the word "CRYPTO ENTHUSIAST" or "WEB3 ENTHUSIAST" from your bio. Around december i got connected to someone BIG UP KCimagination dope dude a legend, he onboarded me to the TEZOS ecosystem i think with like $3 worth of tezos which was like 2.5 TEZ or so i bought my Holographic daniels collection to Tezos and crazy enough i mad my first sale $0.5 worth of Tezos i was elated because it was not like it was the sale it was like i my path was already cleared up alright then i pushed through Q4 2023 i made my first massive NFT sale that year which was like $25+ or so big up MysticNft's dope ass woman i respect her so much, i had my first collaborative piece coming out soon with Mystique and KCimagination i felt on top of the world, Then fast forward to february 2024 when tradegy striked I, KC and Mystique just listed our collaboration and we were talking about it on spaces with a lot of plans on turning the piece into a 3D metaverse, me not knowing that some dickheads were planning on setting me up as a fall guy to promote their shitty copy nft collection of the bored apes. They planned it well using the fact that i was Nigerian and the stigmatisation against Nigerians as we are labelled as scammers among other countries, Okay this dudes created a fake X handle and said i created the handle to scam their followers in my head when i heard the space recording i was like i just heard about their shitty collection on my timeline the day before how is that even possible in one day i would try to create a fake handle on X that's dumb also i just made a collaborative piece with mystique and Kc i would not be so stupid to lose two people that believed in me trust, I was insulted on that space a lot dragged and i was not even online to defend myself because i was playing ball with some dudes when i was being set up on an X space, crazy how this dudes said i was in their discord and that was how i was able to create a fake handle LOL in this life guys some bastards would try to use the fact that you are not known to promote their shitty collections, Okay the discord i was in it but i did not last a day because on the discord they were having a conversation and i had a question because that period i was dealing with creativity block and i asked how can i get rid of creative block as a creator and they banned me in their discord and this was in december 2023 and the shitty project did not come out to promote itself until February so in my head i was like Fuck this dudes crazy how also this bastards right they crated a memecoin and they rugged all their friends and now they are affiliates of some crypto betting company i won't mention any names.
In Q2 2024 i was depressed i felt like nothing was going well for me and i had just dropped out of architecture the year before because it did not feel like me so i was just like why me, why can't i do anything right my mind and thoughts were all over the place, I tried creating but nothing truly worked, Then i found Ai generated music this was in like Q3 close to Q4 2024 when suno.ai just came out i was creating music with AI by this period there was a web3 music platform where you can list your music called SOUND.xyz dope platform they are currently shut down though i made like $40+ from this, then i started getting the grove of prompt engineering better, and i got better in creating and editing generated images and i started selling on SOLANA i think i made only a sale and it was like $60 sol or less i can't really remeber, This period was also when pump.fun just started also everyone were lunching and rugging memes on solana fun times, During this period i was involved with a bitcoin runes project called DOPE.GRANDMA.COIN i made my first $100 and an additional $50 from winning their competitions honestly $50 was spent on essentials $100 i was rugged by a memecoin called AIR so my money dissapered int thin AIR lmao. Funny thinking back.
Then Q1 2025 i started releasing on crypto ecosystems like base which was dope never had a NFT sale on Base till date, i realeased on Avalnche i had a few sales i never felt seen on AVAX, i released on ETH only two though gas fees reminded me that i was broke then around Q4 2025 i started streaming on a Web3 platform called Chat3one really dope platform, sad no one uses them like before, there i was taxed with sharing over $500 to people that join my streams in which i did and i earned a little from the platform, made a dope follower big up Phager, Fast forward to 2026 i saw a post called BITCOIN TAKEOVER PODCAST by vik and started listening, right now i am a moderator for a streamer in my 200 level in cybersecurity and i am enjoying learning and unlearning a lot about Cryptocurrencies in general.

ALL IN ALL I WOULD NOT CHANGE ANY THING THAT HAS HAPPENED BECAUSE IT HELPED ME BECOME WISER AND BETTER HAS AN INDIVIDUAL. I THANK GOD ALSO TO ANYONE READING THIS IF YOU LIKE BE CHRISTIAN BE MUSLIM BE ATHEIST, AGNOSTIC, HINDI WHATEVER YOU BELIEVE IN JUST REMEBER TO BE A KIND HUMAN BEING YOU WOULD NEVER REGRET IT.

OH YEAH I FORGOT ABOUT THE TELEGRAM SCAMMERS FUCK THEM CRAZY HOW MY FELLOW NIGERIANS SCAMMED ME FIRSTLY BY LYING TO ME THAT I COULD PAY FOR THEM TO UNLOCK A TOKEN THAT COULD NEVER BE UNLOCKED ALSO THEY SCAMMED ME BY PRETENDING TO BE LEGIT P2P TRADERS BUT THEY WERE NOT
