Opening Notes

Whenever people ask me about my perspective on knowledge and learning, this simple thought always comes to mind.

Those who know, perhaps do so simply because they learned it first. You learn from me, but that does not mean I am smarter than you. You learn from me simply because I happened to know it before you did. Now, let us reverse the roles: if you had known it before me, I would undoubtedly be the one learning from you. Yeah, it is just a simple puzzle of words.

Confused? I think not. There is nothing confusing here because it has been stripped down and explained in plain, simple language. Amazed? You have every right to be, for that very puzzle of words is a small fragment of knowledge.

Let us learn from one another and study together, because knowledge is a well that never runs dry.

First Meet

I am someone who finds solace and expression in writing, deeply influenced by my journey as a person with a hearing disability. Today, I am a family man, blessed with two wonderful children—a boy and a girl. I am launching this blog at a milestone in my life, as I am nearly touching the half-century mark.

My fascination with the crypto world began back when I was a quarter-century old. Over the years, I have experienced the full spectrum of cryptocurrency activities: participating in testnets, contributing to blockchain project communities, hunting for airdrops, collecting NFTs, and trading. In the blockchain space, my strategy is clear-cut: I am a diamond-hand holder for products with true long-term potential, but a swift 'paper hand' when I sense profits are about to fade. This approach is shaped entirely by my personal perspective—though, admittedly, significant mistakes have led to losses along the way.

Moving forward, I am starting fresh with a $200 portfolio, built from the remnants of my past ventures. I am placing my hopes on rebuilding and growing this portfolio in the crypto space. The period from late 2025 through September 2026 was a brutal bear market, causing my assets to dwindle significantly, especially as they were drawn upon to support my life and my family.

Best regards,
Aris Asmara

Crypto Wallet to Navigating Web3

Image
Following up on our previous discussion about extension-supported browsers , today we are diving into the absolute must-have tool for the Web3 world: The Crypto Wallet . If you are just stepping into the crypto space, understanding your wallet options is the most crucial foundation before you make your first transaction. When people talk about fully experiencing Web3, they are usually referring to non-custodial wallets. Why? Because they give you complete, independent control over your digital assets. While centralized exchanges (CEX) exist to manage keys for you, a true crypto wallet puts the ownership entirely in your hands: “Not your keys, not your crypto”. Custodial vs. Non-Custodial Wallets: What’s the Difference? Crypto wallets are broadly divided into two categories based on who holds the keys to your funds: Custodial Wallets : Your private keys are managed by a third party, such as a centralized crypto exchange . You are essentially trusting them to keep your assets...

Best Android Browsers with Extension Support

Most Android smartphones come pre-installed with a default browser. However, more often than not, these stock browsers fall short of meeting our advanced needs.
