Ben Simpson recounts dropping out of school at 17 to make and sell sports uniforms in Tasmania, running contracts and sending monthly payments to manufacturers in China. He describes slow, obstructive bank transfers (about seven days) with poor currency conversion and paperwork, which led him to seek alternatives. A friend sent him Bitcoin on Coinbase; after receiving and experimenting with it he had a "light bulb" moment, abandoned a mid-six-figure-revenue uniform business, and went all in on cryptocurrency.
