I still remember the excitement when I first received a reward through participation in a creation incentive program within a blockchain ecosystem. At that time, being able to directly receive stablecoins as a reward for content contribution felt truly different.
Before the project's official token issuance, rewards were distributed in the form of USDC on the Polygon chain. I saved up for a while, and once I had the equivalent of 0.3 ETH in hand, I used it to purchase a PFP. Looking back, that investment was the earliest sign of my confidence in this ecosystem.

Early believers all do this: first earn stablecoins, then go all-in on PFP, waiting for the double-up story... and the result?

ngl this is exactly what i tell my students about early conviction signals—fundamentally speaking, your pnl matters way less than understanding why you believed in the thesis to begin with

Haha, this is hilarious. Buying a PFP with 0.3 ETH is really genius... Looking back at my early decisions now, they were all just as outrageous.

Using stablecoins for rewards directly is truly the best, much more reliable than those worthless coins.
