Hey there, I'm Dax
My early struggles in life led me to discover & become a #Bitcoin miner in 2010 ⚙️.
That early discovery allowed me to pursue my dreams as a music producer 🎹
Now I am the CTO👨🔧 of the coolest NGO in #ElSalvador:

Growing up was tough for me. My dad left when I was a kid, and it was just my mom, sister, and me.
School was hard—I was always labeled as problematic 😵💫
It wasn't until my teenage years that I was diagnosed with ADHD, which explained my struggles.
After high school, I dreamed of going to college but my family simply couldn't afford it.
Faced with a difficult decision, I chose to prioritize my sister's education over my own 💪
I dropped out of university and started looking for a job to support my family👨👩👧
My dad re-entered my life, and with his help, I traveled to the US 🇺🇲🗽
Music became my refuge amidst the chaos. It brought me joy and calmness.
I attended a summer camp at
@BerkleeCollege
& fell even more in love with it.
In 2009 and 2010, #Bitcoin caught my attention.
I was saving for a synthesizer🎹 and stumbled upon this new technology.
I delved into researching and learning about #Bitcoin from online forums & communities.
I even started mining Bitcoin in 2010👨🔧
But due to financial constraints, I had to prioritize other expenses and stop mining.
Life led me to the biomedical industry, but music remained my passion.
In 2014, I decided to pursue music production at
@BerkleeCollege
. After graduating, I built my own music studio in 2018.
But the pandemic hit in 2020, and I struggled to make ends meet.
I had to sell everything and move back with my mom 😔
Determined to sustain myself, I offered music production services online. (I still am)
Then, I heard about #Bitcoin's resurgence in #ElSalvador.
It rekindled my interest, and I dived back into learning and exploring its intricacies.
While I couldn't afford expensive mining equipment, I found my place in the #LightningNetwork⚡
I learned about nodes and connections. I even built a Lightning node in #ElSalvador using donated parts.
