i’ve not been spending much time on steem recently because i’ve just not felt in the mood to type and write my thoughts out about a lot of things but with the upswing of crypto currency recently and surfing between the digital lines i felt it was worth dropping something down.

it’s kinda weird how you find out about people in this day and age, social networks of connected people either in your space or just on the edge of it all have influence. i’ve been following jerry banfield for a while now and while some might judge (including me at times) his sanity you can’t take away from the fact that the guy has one thing - guts.

now while i completely question jerry and his taste in music creation and some of this live streams about most topics when it comes to investing, making money (even randomly) he goes all in, he’s not afraid to gamble and while he’s lost a lot he’s also had moments where he had a lot.

right now is one of those moments.. .

recently jerry sold of his dash masternode for a good profit, he made his initial investment back, probably paid of some debts and then looked around for his next investment. what’s surprising is what crypto he decided to invest in next.

as the title says, that’s steem.. .. if you head over to jerrys profile you will see that he invested around about $17k into steam and already he’s account has gone up in value by about $3k in less than a few days, admittedly steam is on a high right now but it’s a bold move to drop money into steem.

great that jerry is here for the long haul and it certainly helped bump my own account and interest back in the platform - 17,182.439 STEEM is going to give jerry a lot of curation power in the platform and i can see him posting his youtube and blogs here in the coming days and weeks.

I only wished that i had listened to my gut instincts when i sold my me.dm domain to evan williams in 2011 about bitcoin, i did a bit of mining, made my money back but if i had invested £10k of that money then today, six years later i would have easily made an incredible profit from that initial investment.

it’s times like this i wish i had a future crypto currency almanac! :)

do you wish you had put more money into crypto currency? discuss below and if you were investing today which ones would you put money into. ..
