First Real Life Crypto Purchases - Tell Me Your Story Too
I first got involved with cryptos by joining the Ethereum Gitter channels a year ago March and still play around in their channels. Although I have been able to use fiat to buy crypto, I had not made any real life purchases until very recently.
I joined the Dashnation Slack back in late February after having played with their Dashcore wallet for nearly a year, and recently, when I decided to upgrade my blog domain to a merchant website, I asked a friend in Columbus that handles WP websites if he would get my site up if I paid him in crypto. He said he would build my site for 0.1 BTC.
I had him get a Jaxx wallet installed and talked to him about how great being able to hold multiple currencies there was and then asked him if I could pay in Dash instead of BTC. He loved the idea and I have sent hime to 0.5 Dash payments thus far and he has begun work on my merchant site. I still owe him some on the fee, but it was great to use Dash for my first real world purchase of services.
Tell me your story. I found the Dash symbol in the picture right above to win 0.1 Dash in a contest on social media currently run by the Women of Dash led by @stellabelle .
I joined one of the dash campaigns and really had it. It was the first dash wallet campaign.i made my self a cool 5$ in dash which i used to buy data for my internet connection. It was so great a feeling though i had to convert it to bitcoin first.
Upvoted! I found your post on the WOD slack.
I first bought Dash with the help of my SO @flyinfree and I have been in love with the community ever since. I was lucky enough to go to the Az open house and meet most of the core team, amazing people. I haven't met @stellabelle in person, but I would include her in that too. :)
