Was having dinner with an old friend yesterday. Our friendship spans two decades, so he has basically watched me grow up. Being in our 40s, it was natural that our conversation shifted to meaning in life and life purpose. 

I don’t dare to say that I have a very clear idea of my life purpose. But I do know that my job, much as I like it, is just a way for me to earn income and isn’t central to my identity. I hope to create something that I can call my own. Bonus points if I can use my strength to help people at the same time.

So, at the beginning of this year, I started a subreddit called r/BitcoinSG. The purpose was to educate my fellow men about how they could accumulate sats. I thought that given my active use of various Lightning Network platforms, I could help interested Singaporeans pave the way.

This is me writing a post for r/BitcoinSG.

Hi there! Guess you may be wondering how to buy Bitcoin? The exchange I use the most is Gemini. It’s very intuitive to use apps for all your transactions nowadays but if you wish to buy Bitcoin from Gemini, be sure to use the online website because it has the Active Trading feature. For some reason or other, the app version doesn’t have this Active Trading function, so buying BTC there will incur more fees!

You must be curious as to why I only had $2 worth of USD. That’s because I collect Zcash from Pipeflare and GlobalHive. For the purpose of this post, I converted my $2 worth of ZEC to USD. Lucky!

As you can see from the screenshot below, converting USD to BTC doesn’t incur any transaction fee. So, you may want to consider Gemini when buying Bitcoin.

Peace out.
