So my journey into crypto started with a co-worker talking about Ripple. It was December 12th, 2017 and Ripple was all the rage. It was in the main stream media, it was on the radio, it seemed like it was everywhere.
Now of course I had heard of crypto currency, but mostly Bitcoin. As an internet marketer, I had seen numerous posts from other marketers about it, but at the time I stayed away as I needed to focus on what I was doing and not follow the sheep into the latest and greatest craze.
So this co worker got me thinking and I got to researching. Ripple sure looked good, much of the hype was touting it as the next Bitcoin and at less than fifty cents a coin it seemed like easy money. So I decided to jump in.
Researching where to buy it on Ripple's website, I created an account at Bitstamp. I entered all my info and then their system said they were backlogged and it'd be a few days. In the meantime I watched Ripple's price climb daily. About a week later Ripple topped $1 and I was still waiting for Bitstamp to approve my account. Another week went by and you guessed it, still waiting, all the while Ripple was still climbing. Finally I jumped on Facebook to find some other means of buying Ripple. Found a guy in a Facebook group that was willing to help me and finally on December 29 I bought $100 worth of Ripple at a whopping $2.23 a coin. But hey, if this thing was gonna be $1000 a coin than still a good buy in my book!
On a side not...I'm still waiting on Bitstamp to approve my account!
And so my journey begins...

if that's you lloking for. I personally don't like the RIPPLE coin since it's not decentralized and main use for it is helping banks and governments move money.
