The Grid…. A digital frontier. I tried to picture clusters of information as they moved through the computer. What did they look like? Ships, motorcycles? Were the circuits like freeways? I kept dreaming of a world I thought I’d never see. And then, one day….I got in.

Ok, so the wallet isn’t as important as my cold storage? Another user told me to set one of those up. He recommended one but it had low ratings on the AppStore.

I honestly wish I knew people that were into this, but to be honest, I have only recently come around to embracing it myself. I am on a fixed budget, so I am hoping I can use this as a form of investment for the future.

Hopefully, once I get it sorted, someone can send me a couple sats, just so I understand the process. I won’t be able to add anything until the third, so that gives me time to learn as much as I can. Admittedly, this is a bit steeper of a learning curve than I originally anticipated.

The funny thing, one of my last electrical jobs was setting up a mining farm. I understood the power aspect of it and how much a miner uses (a LOT), but didn’t know a damn thing about what the hardware did that I was hooking up. 🤦🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️😂

Thank you for your response.

So, what is everyone’s choice for a #bitcoin wallet?

Let me rephrase that, which is the most trusted wallet? I’m trying to get on board with this whole bitcoin thing and I fear if I chose the wrong wallet and something happened to my funds, that would be that and I would probably turn my back on it for good.

I’m an old dog but I believe I can still learn some new tricks and bitcoin as at the front of the line.

Thank you very much. #BTC

Yessir. I had to take a continuing education class every year and they showed us a video of a guy who was testing voltage on what he thought was aroun 1200v. Unfortunately, it was almost double that and his test tester created an arc which lit him on fire. He passed away from his injuries.

Linemen are a certain breed of their own, it’s a very specialized field. There’s no second chances when you’re dealing with that kind of voltage. You definitely have to respect it and always pay attention. I got lit up by a 277 circuit one time because I grounded myself on the ceiling grid when I was checking some exposed wires in a 2x4 drop in light. That was no fun. Always have to be aware of your surroundings. I have nothing but respect for that field and those that work in it.

Right on. I worked for an electrical company for 6 years, it’s definitely a great field to get into if you like challenges. My problem was, I was not particularly happy when I would get zapped. No matter how often it happens, it never gets any better. 😅 It actually got to a point where I was afraid to work with energized city cuts and that can be dangerous. That’s when I knew it was time to leave.

It is amazing what you can pick up. From a layman’s perspective, you don’t really think about it, you just plug things in and expect it to work, but understanding that amperage or resistance(ohms).

I learned from a master electrician and there is till so much I didn’t learn. It’s kind of nuts. I mean, you can only have so many wires in a certain size pipe. You can only have so many 90° bends on a run. It just goes on and on. I was able to take what I did learn and sort out my house’s electrical, it was all fucked up. 😅
