It's amazing how far Technology and Innovation has taken us. Back from the times of pen and paper to blogging online. The world of computers has always fascinated me. I was first introduced to a computer when I was 7 years old. I believe it was an old IBM computer. I remember playing hours of Qbert almost every day after school, pounding away at the keyboard and spilling my fruit juice all over it, boy did I get in trouble for that!
Anyway, computers and Art have always been a part of my life. It's absolutely astonishing how fast the technology has grown, and how it has changed our world. Could you imagine living without our devices and the internet today? It would be a nightmare! Well, at least for me.
My name is Kory aka KTech, I know it's cheesy – Kory, "K"Tech but hey we have to start somewhere right? This is my introduction to the great Steemit, and Dtube Community. I've been lurking the platform for a couple months now and have enjoyed all of the articles and videos the platform has to offer. I've dabbled a little with Cryptocurrencies in the past, I think it was 2010 or 2011 when I heard of Bitcoin. I mined a few coins back then nothing serious. It was something fresh and interesting to me, and being the Computer Geek I am, I had to take on the task of building a computer to mine it. I was in Europe at the time, working in the military there and played around with it on my off-time.
I was more into messing with the iPhones back then, Jail-breaking and cracked screen repair. I actually made a pretty good side-income changing out all the cracked screens people brought to me. The soldiers were dropping their phones and soaking them in water left and right, there were no Water and shock proof cases at the time, so business was good, and it made me quite popular in the community.

I have a variety of other interest and stories that I'd love to share with the Steemit Community, like Forex trading and Technical Analysis. I've been trading now for a little over 8 Years and have learned quite a bit about the Brokers, tools and platforms to use. I have sort of moved away from Forex and now actively trade Cryptocurrencies. I believe in the Technology of The Blockchain, and Cryptocurrencies. It will be the catalyst that will drive our Economic Future for the better. While researching and trading Bitcoin and Altcoin, I've found some interesting tools to use for trading Cryptocurrencies in which I've seen some success so far. I plan on posting articles and videos on what I find useful as I go along. I also do some Crypto Mining that's one of my rigs in the Picture above.
I'll also share the books that I am currently reading and my thoughts on them. I'd love to join or create a book club of some sorts and get feedback on the books we have all read. I am into reading fiction and non-fiction titles especially books on influencers in finance and their success. I'm trying to keep this a short introduction, I know people like myself usual read a few sentences in the first paragraph before clicking on to the next thing. But If you are still here reading this, I'm glad I've held your attention. I hope to bring value to the Steemit and DTube Community and have lots of fun while doing it. Thank you for reading my introduction, KTech out.
