I started my crypto journey with nothing ...absolutely nothing. I didn't have a pot to piss in.

  The phrase comes from way back when people still used animal hides for many things, and a tanner was an if not common trade, it was a necessary one. At that time urine was an important ingredient for tanning. 

  People could make a small amount of coin by urinating into a pot... a piss pot so to speak, and then selling it to the tanner for a small amount. If you were really poor you may only own a cooking pot so not having a pot to piss in became a turn of phrase.

  My crypto collecting is very much a piss pot affair. I do all the little things to earn the dust and bits of crypto here and there...But you know what?  If you don't touch what you make it grows. And if you can make some where staking it is easy, it can even earn interest.

  If you are starting without a pot to piss in you can check out coinbase and look at their earn to learn section where they will give you a little free crypto to learn about certain coins.

  Crypto is worth sticking your toe in...and maybe even pissing in a pot.
