why are you onchain? for me it's the community and freedom here i got onchain in 2021 after I got dropped by my sponsor for not making the tokyo olympics the crazy thing is i actually jumped the standard to go but there was too much wind behind me so the jump was considered 'illegal' after getting dropped i decided to 'sponsor myself' through NFT's i drew and uploaded a collection to opensea one by one called afrochicks my collection sold out, i wore the nfts on my kit when competing and shouted out the owners i felt a crazy sense of belonging and i stopped feeling as though i wasn't good enough cos i am unsponsored and not an olympian (yet) i have stuck around because here i have true support and freedom to post whatever i want i've also noticed people here have more belief in others which is nice and makes me believe in myself more the onchain community has literally changed the trajectory of my athletics career i 100% would have quit in 2021 if i didn't discover it :)

facts! I wanted to spread a lil positivity the proof of ownership aspect is what made it super special when i wore them to compete i knew exactly which member of the community owned that nft and supported me rather than just a like on insta that disappears they were part of it I want to recreate that idea when i document my journey to the LA olympics onchain ☺️
