I decided to enter the contest The World of XPILAR - CITYSCAPE PHOTOGRAPHY AND ART CONTEST WEEK #191 - 14STEEM in prizes! - Submissions post by @axeman.

Greetings friends.
Of course, it looks more like a villagescape than a cityscape. And this landscape is more beloved and familiar to me than city streets with tall houses.
But today I wanted to reflect a little on the past first month of the year. It was very intense for me.
The year began with the arrival of my son and his family to visit us. But this brought little joy, because my son drove 1300 km at the wheel of a car with a high temperature, almost 39 degrees. After arriving, he lay in bed for 2 days. After that, his wife and daughter fell ill. Of their 2 weeks of vacation, they were definitely ill for one week, and the granddaughter had painful syndromes until the last day.
On January 20-21, I took a long walk in the car myself to meet my daughter and take two cats from her.
Last Friday, my daughter and her family came to visit us. From Saturday to Monday, my son-in-law and I were laying laminate flooring in the living room and kitchen. It was a really great job done!
Friends, but you and I live in the crypto world and I want to tell you a little about January in this context.

January was marked by a bullish mood and the distribution of rewards almost every day from various projects. The first distribution of rewards was on January 2nd. It was very unexpected and pleasant. During the trip on January 20-21, I completely forgot about the next reward and did not apply for it. I arrived home on the evening of the 21st and did not turn on the computer, I decided to rest. It cost me about $150. But it was also some kind of unexpected reward and I was not upset.
I would like to note that in January, the Solana network demonstrated itself well on the HYIP and the projects that were made on this network were especially generous with gifts. On Saturday, I took $260, or rather they gave it to me, but the distribution of $JUP tokens today was completely unexpected. We were waiting for this distribution, because at the end of December this reward was announced, but it turned out that my friends in the crypto world were not supposed to have a reward, and I was supposed to have a gift of 1200 tokens. But no one knew the price.
Just the day before yesterday, it was announced that the token distribution will take place on January 31.

Wow, I got them and saw the price at $0.7 for $JUP. It really gave our family a lot of pleasure! It turned out to be $863.
My whole family is involved in this award. And I think she should stimulate my whole family well for new goals.
In April 2022, I participated in the presale for the $ONDO token. The token distribution was supposed to take place in April 2023, but the market was bearish and the project postponed the distribution of the coin for 1 year. But, apparently, against the background of favorable conditions in January, Ondo Finance announced the listing of the coin, which means we will be able to sell these tokens. It was a very exciting event. How will the exchange behave? The listing was announced on several exchanges, there was a fear that after the start of sales, the price would fall sharply down. But everything turned out very great! I invested $1,500 to buy the token in April 2022. The result after the start of coin sales, I fixed at $4,700. It's just wonderful! If we also take into account that in a year and a half the USD/RUB exchange rate has increased by almost 40%, then the profit in rubles turned out to be even higher than in dollars.
In a month on cryptocurrency, I made a net profit of about $4,500 and returned $1,500 plus.
My son told me - Dad, this is just the beginning of the bull market, 2024 should give us a profit and we will be able to close all our debts.
