Retro Hunter Memories Today I brewed some herbal tea: linden, thyme, and mint, and started reminiscing about the old days. In early July 2023, the nine-week Linea Voyage quests concluded. All participants were given commemorative NFTs of various levels: Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, and Omega. I had several accounts that I received Alpha NFTs for. I remember in the early days, they could be sold for $500, but I decided to hold them, believing they would become one of the airdrop criteria in the future.

I considered these quests obvious money-raising opportunities and opted for the simplest ones, which required less investment. At the same time, I made a fateful decision to keep 0.01 ETH or slightly more in my Starknet accounts to protect them from possible shaved funds. I actively ran transactions in various DeFi protocols: JediSwap, mySwap, Ekubo, zkLend, Nostra, and others.
