On Being Unlucky https://twitter.com/SBF_Alameda/status/1294224370110312453
I have spent most of my time being unlucky, both of my high school and colleague entrance exam are literally the worst of all my student life. I spend 2 years in depression during my colleague and it took me 6 years to graduate from a 3-year bachelor program.
I fought very hard for my first job, but still only landed as a humble trading assistant, I did something extraordinary for a chance to be part of the two-month trader's trainee program. my ex has to broke up with me during those two months. Despite my best effort, didnt make it
So I go back to school and in 2015, ran into Etherum in 2017 and started mining, made a small fortune in the bull run, but only a few tens of thousands. later I found out that people are actually hiring crypto-related jobs so I started my job hunt in late 2017.
I posted resumes multiple times to Binance, Huobi, Local funds. etc, none ever bothered replying to me. Got very close shot with a major Singaporean hedge fund, but they decided not to go forward with crypto.
So I reckon that it's maybe people don't know what I can do, therefore I wrote the following piece: it is still by far the most accurate predictive model to my knowledge, with 3 years of track result. https://medium.com/@Looogleg/bitcoin-f4c198184e1c
But nope. it didn't help, it‘s a fucking TL;DR. I didn't give up and kept searching, from 2017 till 2019. in early 2019, I met one major Chinese crypto leader in Europe where I live now, he's invested in exchange business and asked if I am interested.
OFC I am and for a brief 4 month period, I fought tooth and nail for what I believe is right, you've no idea how fucking hard it is to convince people to set up an insurance fund or that wash trading is bad.
Still, just as when I realized we've got the BEST Option engine already build, The boss decided to shut down the business. Now http://Bit.com  will launch everything I have planned 9 months ago.
Now I am now working with a major crypto exchange, still fighting very hard for what I think is fair. But where I am, who I am, is because I am stubborn as fuck and never surrendered from a fight. I am lucky that I was born resilient and wild.
All the harshness I have endured made me very angry and cynical at times, But to know unfairness, to experience it, and fought all the way in a headwind through it, gives me strong motivation to fight for a fairer and more just world.
So that my children and the children of my neighbors will live in a world that they'll be treated with more kindness.
