I first heard about it in 2011, dismissed it as a scam that the government would have shut down and then two years later in 2013 in high school economics class my teacher read us a news article about Bitcoin and my first thought was "the government hasn't shut that down yet?". I then started to do my own research and realized what the hell I was missing and jumped in with both feet from 2014 until 2017 at which point I completely left cryptocurrency because of the fees and the block wars. I came back in 2022 and went to Monero and that's where I'm staying.
