Memo 0xf1ce9d29…35138c on Ethereum

Ethereum is almost 10 years old. This contract will be 10 years old just 1 week afterwards. Incredible to look through all of the stuff that has been created ever since. And to also look back through all of the early development of Ethereum, the old chat rooms, the old forums, the old test contracts, and everything adjacent. I wish I could have been there! When Ethereum launched to the Frontier, I was only 14 years old going into high school lol. I actually heard of Ethereum back in early 2017 when that crazy pump happened, a couple of those lame ICO coins on Ethereum came onto my phone through social media. That's how I got introduced to Bitcoin, Litecoin, and Ethereum at first. I even recall a slight look at dogecoin, but I was much too young to know what was going on. At most, I kind of thought it was cool how the prices went up, but was just confused and stepped away from it. I honestly never really thought I would get into crypto. Thought it was extremely bad, because that's how the media and literally everything used to market it as back then. It wasn't until I found NFTs, that's when I felt that maybe they were cool enough to take a look into. The false narrative of the CryptoPunk pump is what grabbed me. The first NFTs as they were once titled, they went flying off of that narrative, I couldn't believe my eyes how much people were paying for some JPEG haha. It took me a few years after this to eventually actually understand the Blockchain down to its technical smart contract functionality layer. Made some smart contracts myself, and have been playing with so many things along the way. I look forward to being here forever. Love you all. Ethereum rules. Send it higher!
