Once upon a time...more or less 34 years ago...a baby (me :)) was born in the wonderful south of Germany. It was a surprisingly happy colorful life full of fun and harmony even not knowing what santa clause or the future will bring (...a game boy, computer, cell phone, tablet or crazy wild horizon broading things like elliptic curves...).
While this child was growing up so fast, it was glad to watch tv or a videocassette on a large tube tv, write letters to penpals, read the video text, play in the garden or look up things in a dictionary.
A few years later, a computer came into its life with a beeping high speed modem as it was common in 1993. This was the beginning of the digitalization of its life.
Many digital chapters followed over the years e.g. a faster modem, EOL of the floppy disc, smartphones, notebooks, tablets, high speed internet, chat, e-mail, digital payments and trading of cryptocoins which all led to steemit in the end.
Today, this child is a grown-up living a happy life as a proud member of the steemit community.
