In September 2025, with a mixture of confusion and apprehension about the crypto world, I registered for a Binance account. At that time, I had only a vague understanding of "earning" and "airdrops"; I had only heard that this platform could generate profits through simple tasks, but I never expected that this path hid so many unknown hardships and the brightness that comes after persistence.
On my first days in Binance, it felt like groping in the fog. Every day I scoured the task center on the screen, from blockchain courses in "Learn & Earn" to community content creation, from inviting friends to register to participating in project staking; I approached every task with caution. I remember in early October, to complete a promotional task, I stayed up late for a week editing popular science copy, repeatedly sharing on social platforms with little effect. Watching others' profit screenshots, I was filled with anxiety and self-doubt. During those days, the light of my phone screen became my only companion in the late night, and most projects were in English. During that time, the first thing I did every morning was to open Binance to check project updates, using translation software to carry out tasks, afraid of missing snapshot times or making operational mistakes. Once, due to network delays, my staking operation repeatedly failed. As the deadline approached, my palms were sweaty, and my fingers trembled as I refreshed the page. It wasn't until the system prompted "Staking Successful" that I finally breathed a sigh of relief. During those days, I paid close attention to every airdrop project as if guarding a treasure, recording all snapshot nodes, and even circled key dates on the calendar with a red pen, fearing that a moment of negligence would cause me to miss an opportunity.
Efforts will eventually be rewarded. From October to November, the earnings from tasks slowly accumulated, from the initial dozens of dollars to later hundreds of dollars. When the backend showed that total earnings exceeded $15,000, I was so excited that I almost jumped up. Even more unexpectedly, in mid-December, the BABY tokens from the Babylon airdrop arrived, and combined with rewards from previous tasks, the total earnings from a single task approached $400. That day, I repeatedly checked my account balance, and after confirming that the numbers were correct, I couldn't help but call my parents back home, my voice choked with emotion—this money is not only a material gain but also a recognition of my countless days and nights of persistence.
Recalling this journey, there have been late-night confusions, regrets over operational mistakes, and frustrations from meager earnings, but more importantly, there are feelings of gratitude and emotion after persistence. Binance is like a fair stage, it does not consider background or qualifications, only measuring effort and perseverance. Here, I learned to share value through 'Write to Earn', accumulated blockchain knowledge through 'Learn & Earn', gained tangible returns through the task center and airdrop activities, and understood the true meaning of 'the harder you work, the luckier you get.'
Now, every time I open my Binance account and see the earnings obtained through hard work, my heart is filled with warmth. I thank Binance for providing such a low-threshold platform for growth and gain for ordinary people, allowing every bit of persistence to be seen and every effort to be rewarded. In the days to come, I will continue to accompany Binance on its journey, and I hope that everyone striving in the crypto world can make the most of their time and connections, and reap their own light through persistence. Life is like a pancake, with valleys of disappointment as well as peaks of success.
