Before entering the cryptocurrency circle, Yuxiang had three labels: a man, someone who could write, and Xiaoli’s boyfriend.

After entering the cryptocurrency circle, Yuxiang put on an EOS keychain, and his favorite expression is the one where Bitcoin covers its face with its hands and cries and laughs.

In the third-tier city where Yuxiang lives, the 520 festival is much more popular than digital currency. He has never been to Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou or Shenzhen, but he heard that the cryptocurrency circle there is very lively: projects are everywhere, founders come one after another, presentations are held one after another, and the big guys are busy talking about big things.

Yuxiang was enjoying the breeze by the river, sighing as he looked at the market. 520 is coming soon, but there is no sign of the bull market. I wanted to sell some doubled coins to add some spice to the date, but now it seems that it is impossible.

But this 520 is very important to Yuxiang. There are only two or three months left before the engagement, but his relationship with Xiaoli is up and down like the market. It is really hard for ordinary men to find a partner nowadays. Xiaoli is an accountant, good-looking, smart, and capable, but Yuxiang feels that he is not worthy of her. He is sloppy, stays up late, is lazy in bed, has no talent, and is poor, so he is often ridiculed by Xiaoli.

If the cryptocurrency industry hadn't made him some money, he probably wouldn't have made it through 520. It's hard for ordinary men, and even harder for writers. In the cryptocurrency industry, you have to be able to operate, understand business, and attract people to turn words into money.

Writers like Yuxiang can never get into the big V circle, even though what they write is like brainwashing. Big Vs like to shout, protect the leeks, and care for the newbies.

As for Yuxiang, he couldn't afford BTC and didn't dare to touch altcoins. He only had a few EOS and platform coins in his hands, and he couldn't sleep because of the profit and loss of a few hundred or a few thousand. The groups he could join were all small investors who gathered together to recommend wool and short-term software to each other, and they laughed at themselves for warmth. Xiaoli's old classmates all invested in blockchain and made a lot of money. They also told her about blockchain and when it was the best time to buy coins.

Yuxiang is a boyfriend who has no money to build a position. Seeing Xiaoli regretting so much after missing the opportunity, he feels so sad.

Recently, Yuxiang began to wonder what he was like before entering the cryptocurrency world.

At that time, he was even more panicked. He was too ordinary and could not see a way out. He was lazy, stupid and had no vision. Writing was his only way out. He made some PPTs and wrote some essays. He was exhausted and had to bow to life. What he feared most was that Xiaoli would not be able to stand his embarrassing situation and run away to a big city to find someone better.

After learning about blockchain, Yuxiang felt that opportunities were few and far between. The characteristics of blockchain reminded him that one cannot change one’s origin, but one must seize opportunities.

He reads like crazy, he reads all kinds of books, whether he can understand them or not, they are his lifeline.

But how easy is it to turn things around? How can you win without money and experience? The market is unpredictable, black swans can come out at any time, and bigwigs harvest leeks in waves. Many people think that they can change their identities on the Internet, but in fact, it is not the case. What is in real life is still the same on the Internet. The currency in the mobile phone can't change anything.

Yuxiang entered the cryptocurrency circle, but he was still the worker who was overwhelmed by life.

Every time he had no money left for the holidays after paying the rent, he would think of a joke from Zhihu:

"520 is coming soon, and I only have 200 yuan to spend, what should I give my girlfriend?"

"Just let her go free."
