Let’s talk about Samuel Edyme—often cheekily referred to as HIM-buktu. He’s a talented web3 content creator, journalist, and a budding trader who’s carved a name for himself with his wordplay and trend-spotting abilities. Samuel has written for a slew of industry heavyweights, such as AMBCrypto, Blockchain.News, and Blockchain Reporter, just to name a few.
His entry into the crypto world paints quite the picture. It wasn’t some glorious investment but rather a scam—the dreaded Ponzi scheme—that involved crypto payments and initially caught him off guard. Instead of drawing back, Samuel turned the experience into a lesson. Now, with over three years of experience in the field, he continues to deliver insightful market analysis infused with wisdom born from past mishaps.
Before transforming into the sensible voice many look up to in crypto circles, Samuel embraced his inner ‘crypto degen.’ He would jump into any opportunity that promised a quick return, learning the complexities and pitfalls firsthand. Samuel’s experience spans numerous significant market events, from the Terra Luna crash and a series of crypto firm bankruptcies to the infamous FTX collapse and even CZ’s arrest—experiences that have sharpened his understanding of market dynamics remarkably.
When he isn’t busy creating compelling content on cryptocurrencies, Samuel is deeply immersed in backtesting charts and studying forex along with synthetic indices. His pursuit to master trading is as relentless as his hunt for the next big crypto story. However, when he’s away from screens, you’ll probably spot him at the gym, earbuds in, vibing to his favorite artist, NF. Or maybe he’s catching some shut-eye or amusing himself by scrolling through Elon Musk’s X platform—oops, still fiddling with screens, aren’t we?
As an introvert, Samuel feels right at home in the digital space, preferring online chats over face-to-face meetups—no judgments there! His unwavering determination reflects his commitment to the philosophy of “kaizen,” a principle focusing on constant improvement, aiming to improve by 1% daily. His life mottos, “God knows best” and “Everything is still on track,” highlight his resilient nature and approach to life.
In essence, Samuel Edyme is all about efficiency, possesses an ambitious spirit, and yes, a dash of fierceness. He isn’t the artsy type, neither is he dawdling in impractical dreams, nor does he carry any chauvinistic stripes. Picture Bruce Willis skillfully maneuvering a hectic scene—that’s Samuel: calm and composed. Imagine swapping your vehicle for a sleek jet—now that’s bold, and very Samuel. He’s the guy who might ask for a pay cut just to make a point (well, perhaps not literally… but you understand). Think about the joy of seeing your kid take their first step. Imagine, for a split second, Bill Gates wrestling with rent—alright, maybe that’s going a bit too far, but you catch the drift, right? Unbelievable? Sure. Inconceivable? Could be.
Samuel sees himself as quite rational, albeit slightly stubborn. What seems ordinary to you doesn’t quite cut it for him. Taking the easy path isn’t his style, and why should it be? That just isn’t his modus operandi. His favorite lyrics from NF’s “Clouds”—“What you think’s probably unfeasible, I’ve done already a hundredfold”—resonate with his life’s narrative.
PS—Samuel is indeed HIM. HIM-buktu. Him-mulation. Him-Kardashian. Himon and Pumba. Ever curious, he even got his DNA tested, and guess what? Yup, he’s absolutely 100% Him-alayan. Bold move, indeed.
