Achievement-1: My Introduction to Steemit (30-01-2026)

About Me

IMG_20260130_125857.jpg

Hello everyone. I am Birsingh Sikri Hansdah. I am 40 years old and reside in Navi Mumbai, which is in the western part of India, in the State of Maharashtra. I stay in a rented flat along with my wife and 2 cats. I can speak 4 languages - English, Hindi, Oriya and my mother tongue, Santhali.

Academics and Professional Record

I completed my Bachelors in Technology in Electrical Engineering in 2008 and completed my MBA in Marketing and Finance in 2010. Since then I worked as a Market Research professional for 9 years. But since 2019, I have been pursuing Poker and Stock Market Trading as a career.

My Passions

  • I love playing poker, which I have learned over the last 6 years.
  • I love watching movies - majorly from Hollywood, Bollywood and Regional India.
  • I watch a lot of videos and read a lot of articles related to movies, finance and geo-politics.
  • My wife is my travel partner, with whom I have travelled to 17 different countries in the last 10 years. It is my wife's goal to visit more than 100 countries in our lifetime, and I am trying to support her in this goal.

My experience with crypto

I had heard a lot about Bitcoin and Crypto around and after the Covid-19 pandemic. To understand more about it I started to trade small amounts of Crypto 3 years ago. To help me in this endeavor, I read a lot of articles about it and claim to have a basic understanding of it. Since the last 2 years, I have also started mining, a few easy to mine, crypto tokens, and have started to participated in a few crypto airdrop programs, through my mobile and laptop. Even though I have done all of the above, I do not own a lot of crypto - but one day aim to be crypto rich (do not know how).

My Topics of Interest

As I have already covered, I am interested in movies, finance and geo-politics. And since I travel every year, I want to check out travel content that can help me in my travel planning. In the past, I have tried to create travel content, but was not very good or successful at it. So I want to use this medium to tell my story of traveling the world, and in doing so improve my story-telling. I may also dabble in some content on movies, if I find a good topic, but creating travel content is my main aim of joining this platform.

How I found Steemit

Earlier I have written about how I started to mine various cryptos through my mobile and laptop devices. During this time I tried to find out the other means with which I can earn crypto. I used Google and ChatGPT to give me a response to this question, and I found out about Steemit.

What do I want to accomplish on Steemit

The Smart Answer

I want to tell the world, the stories of my travel, so that others can get motivated by them. These stories would also help them learn about places that they have not visited before.

The More Realistic Answer

I want to try and earn some money through telling my stories. In this endeavor, if they end up helping others in one way or the other, that would be an added accomplishment for me.

So this is all about me. I want to thank this platform that has given me an opportunity to try and tell my story. Hope I will be of some help to the others in the Steemit community.

Hola, @birsingh.hansdah. Es un placer conocerte y más aún, expresarte una afectiva bienvenida, aunque has llegado unas horas antes que yo, jajajaja... Tienes un curriculum vitae muy competitivo; segura estoy que esta red social va a ser un sitio ideal para contar sobre tu viaje al país # 17 y por supuesto, los consecutivos hasta alcanzar el añorado objetivo general, la divertida y gloriosa visita al #100 con tu señora esposa.

Casualmente, coincidimos en el acercamiento a las criptomonedas en lo que respecta al panorama de introducción. Yo empecé a buscar información similar a tí, cuando se dio el arresto sanitario por la pandemia. Desde entonces, cada vez me intereso en aprender un poco más y conseguir esa estrategia que me permita ir ganando un poco más de dinero con su comercio e intercambios.

Veo que usaste Google y ChatGPT para dar con Steemit. Yo dediqué considerables horas para recopilar información útil y aclarar algunas dudas. Por supuesto, aún tengo muchas preguntas que me agradaría saber, por ejemplo, es aconsejable o se desaconseja la justificación del texto al momento de dar formato al contenido. De manera concreta, no ubiqué una guía con parámetros que me dijera si era esto o aquello, aunque imagino que existe y no he dado con ella; por favor, si tienes una referencia de este recurso, te agradezco, me la compartas.

Te deseo mucho éxito y porvenir...

Hello @yismar. Thank you for the warm welcome. I welcome you too and hope for your success.

Regarding your question on justification of text, I found the following resource on the platform.
https://steemit.com/steemithelp/@katerinaramm/how-to-use-mark-down-style-for-an-appealing-easy-to-read-post-in-steemit

While the link neither advises nor discourages the use of justification, it gives the code for it. I think this platform gives you freedom to choose how one wants to format their posts. However I just found it out, thanks to you. and have used this resource to justify the text in my post.

Hope this is helpful.

Gracias por la bienvenida, @birsingh.hansdah; además, por tomarte el tiempo en investigar sobre el formato justificado en el contenido, eres una persona muy atenta.
Entonces el formato justificado o dejarlo por defecto es un asunto opcional y propio del autor. Sí, con la etiqueta de código HTML: <div class="text-justify"> </div> se efectúa el justificado de texto. Por supuesto, debe hacerse el cierre </div> al final del contenido que se quiere dar formato para que pueda funcionar correctamente.
Gracias por tus buenos deseos.

De igual manera, gracias por la referencia del recurso didáctico, lo voy a revisar para saber sobre su contenido. Te auguro mucho éxito en tu divertida estancia dentro de la plataforma Steemit.
Saludo, cordial.

It was my pleasure. Thank you again.
