I came to Alephium during my junior years attending university and fell in love with the smart contracts, the ecosystem and most importantly the people. ### Token I created the second token ever made on Alephium. While it's price currently is not an achievement it is something that makes ALPHpaca's special. ### NFTs (ALPHpaca's) I was never a talented artist but if I had spent a lot of time on one piece of art then it would have been these NFTs. I like them. I think they all reflect a chill developer somewhat like myself but each sort different. Don't get me wrong there's some weird image overlapping but that's why I like them. {% hint style="info" %} There's beauty in imperfection. {% endhint %} ### A message from Benjamin I came into crypto just like anyone else... chasing the financial future which I believed I was on the cusp of, and I have learned a lot since being excited about a $1 a day on my GTX 1060 6gb. I was firstly a kid who just wanted some internet money and so I invested in ETC which later had a wild run to about $180. Who would have thunk? I think that gave me a fever because after that I got another GPU and the mining fever began. I had $100 a month coming in from ETH and I remember going onto crypto gambling sites playing 'plinko'. I lost it all. Ohh well. Sooner or later I started mining alt coins and Ergo popped my interest. I was an Ergonaut for quite some time and eventually I learned that I get involved with the community long enough where eventually I find the noise and I attack it. I don't like seeing people FOMO others to buy a coin, I don't like people who post speculative pump tactics. I like posting like an alpaca which often involves a very interesting sense of humor. I eventually found Alephium and so far I like it alot and now since I have became a developer I could see myself spending a long time here. I like what I am building and Alephium has given me that platform to express myself through code and watch others use it. ... and that's ALPHpaca's my platform for watching others use and have fun with my code while also making their way through Alephium's ups and downs. --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.
