Thinking back on my Web3 journey, the moment I’m most grateful for isn’t the exhilaration of earning my first profits, but rather the selfless help a stranger gave me when I was at my most helpless.

It was shortly after I entered the space. To participate in a project, I needed to set up a wallet, bridge assets, and then stake. For a beginner, every step felt like walking a tightrope. I remember struggling until 2 a.m. that day, stuck on the final step—my cross-chain transaction kept failing, the gas fees were deducted, and my assets seemed to have vanished.

Panicked and sweating, I posted my question in the project’s Discord channel in broken English, like shouting for help in a dark maze. Just as I was about to give up, an admin named “Marcus” reached out to me privately. He didn’t dismiss my “noob” questions, but patiently walked me through how to track transactions on the blockchain explorer, explained that it was probably network congestion, and reassured me that my assets weren’t lost.

For a whole hour, he was like a guardian lighthouse in the night, guiding me line by line with clear instructions and encouraging words, helping me locate my “stuck” assets and successfully complete the operation. When I finally typed, “It worked! Thank you SO MUCH!!” he simply replied, “Welcome to the future. We help each other here. 😊”

In that moment, what overwhelmed me wasn’t just the relief of solving a problem, but a deep warmth from being touched by the Web3 spirit. In a world often misunderstood by outsiders as “all scams and bubbles,” I personally experienced its core of collaboration and mutual aid. Thank you, Marcus. His kindness not only helped me complete an on-chain operation, but also strengthened my resolve to cultivate and spread goodwill in this field.
