BNB just hit a new ATH at $XXX.

I don’t hold any BNB right now but it’ll always be special to me. Here's why:

My crypto journey started when a friend asked how to buy SafeMoon.

It wasn’t listed on CEXs, so I bought BNB on Binance, bridged it to BSC, and made my first ever on-chain trade on @PancakeSwap.

That single transaction changed everything.

Three months later, I left my IT job.

I’d made enough to live comfortably for the next decade.

I might not hold BNB today, but it will always be the chain that changed my life.
