Introduction

My name is Arkan Fadhil, an only child with 0 siblings (yes, zero… my parents really believed in “one is enough” 🤣).
I live with my mother; my father sadly passed away due to COVID in 2020.

I build websites and web-based apps to cover my daily living, and currently I maintain a project called undangonline.id.
I’m also a content creator on YouTube (Pegas Studio), though I’ve been on a short break because of the algorithm punishment. YouTube rules are now tighter than skinny jeans worn by rock band vocalists in the 90s 😂.


Educational Background

I graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science from Nusa Mandiri University in Indonesia.
Since high school, I have been in the Computer and Network Engineering track, then continued with an Associate degree in Information Management, and finally a Bachelor’s in Information Systems.

Family and Social Life

Currently, I live with my mother, and I am planning to get married to someone who has passed several technical screenings — imagine EMA7 and EMA21 analysis but in real life 🤣.

Marriage in Indonesia is not easy; traditions here often require hosting a big celebration, feeding the whole village like a harvest festival. It’s a beautiful tradition, but honestly very challenging in today’s economic conditions.

Alongside this, I also tried to explore crypto trading. In the last 5 months, I’ve faced many experiences — most of them painful 😂.
Not just losing trades, but I even got scammed cleverly by people who made fake coins with private keys hidden in the description. Amazing, right? Humans with such intelligence could earn money honestly, yet some still choose to scam.


Why I Joined Steemit

I joined Steemit because I have many (mostly bad 🤣) experiences that I believe could help others be more careful in the crypto world.

I also want to update my knowledge in programming, because my coding languages feel a bit outdated compared to the fast-moving tech world. Recently, I just started exploring Web3 and blockchain.


What Kind of Content Will I Create on Steemit?

  • Sharing my experiences in analyzing crypto trades.
  • Cybersecurity stories (attacks on my websites & how I handled them).
  • Best practices in Laravel & CodeIgniter.
  • Content creation journey.
  • Reflections on trends and technology.

Closing

I will do my best to follow the rules of this platform and interact with other Steemians’ posts.

And as a closing motto:
“If you’ve never failed, it simply means you’re always successful… which sounds suspicious, maybe you’re not even human.” 🤣

Thank you for reading my introduction 🙏.
