I had my first payment come through to my wallet tonight, it took about 10 hours to come through.

It was a trivial amount that equates to about 50 cents US but I'll take it. If I see 50 cents on the ground I'll pick it up every time, this 50 cents could turn into much more as the price of crypto goes up.

Free money that appreciates over time is better than fiat currency getting eaten up by fees if it's in a bank.

In all honesty it's probably not the best return you could get for the power used and time invested but as a learning experience it's been invaluable. Now I've got wallets up and running and coins going into them at no risk to myself.

If I manage to screw anything up it won't cost me anything.

Thanks mate!
