Heard about Bitcoin in late 2011 and dismissed it. I learned about the Silk Road late 2012 through Ron Paul campaign circles. I ended up ordering a pot brownie to test Bitcoin. To my surprise a brownie arrived in the mail lol. Went down a rabbit hole after.
Context
I never done a drug in my life. That brownie was left in my room for a while before I threw it out LOL. Opened my eyes that Bitcoin could be legit Freedom Money. Tested sports gambling with Nitrogensport next. During that time US was hostile towards that industry shutting all their bank accounts. Worked so flawlessly. Enforced to me Bitcoin was freedom money. Still took me until 2014-2015 to go all in. Trace Mayer was the guy that made my conviction go through the roof.
