Stardom Logan Williams - Chapter 28 The Future
Logan was staring at the laptop screen. Today the first bitcoin had been released in his previous lifetime. He had no idea then, that this would turn out to be such a fruitful investment for some people. He had no money at that time too. He lived off on a negative balance in his account and he needed every bit of negative balance for his basic necessities. But it was different story this time around. He had almost 27,000 $ in his bank account which his parents had opened for him on his asking.
In Logan’s past life, bitcoins had been a trending topic. He, like everyone else,out of curiosity, had read all about it. Bitcoin had been created by a person or group of people named as Satoshi Nakamoto. No one knew who Satoshi Nakamoto was. It had never been revealed. He had placed it as a open source code. Bitcoins were produced by method called bitcoin mining. First commercial transaction by bitcoins had been about buying a pizza for 10,000 bitcoins. Transactions were registered in public ledgers called blockchains. The conversion ratio of bitcoins had been 5,000 $ per bitcoin during the time around his death. The highest it had reached was around 11k. And this was precisely what, Logan would be targeting. He already knew when these price surges would happen.
He had decided to use around 20,000$ from his funds. The rate at the release would be around 0.30$ per bitcoin. That would give him around 70,000 bitcoins. If he sold them when the valuation reached 11,000$, he would be able to generate 2 billion dollars. Ofcourse he couldn’t release them at once or else the market would crash. But basically, he would be quite a rich man.
It was time. He quickly logged into bitcoin.org and got registered. Not many people knew about bitcoins at first so the competition wouldn’t be fierce but still he had to be fast. It was 9:57. The release would occur at 10 am exactly. As seconds went by,he started to get anxious. Finally it was time. He quickly bought as many bitcoins as he could for 20,000$. His account now showed 67,000 bitcoins. He had finally become a rich man. Or technically a pseudo-rich man since he couldn’t convert them into dollars right now. He would have to let nature take its course for the bitcoin values to surge. Logan felt quite happy, a bit fulfilled. But this was just a drop in the ocean. He had already told his friends to buy bitcoins. They had not seemed to think much of it though. But after Logan had pressured them, they too had bought bitcoins from their pocket money. It wasn’t as much as Logan though.
Logan had already made a thorough plan on which companies he would be investing in. He had made a well thought out plan on the basis that he knew which companies would make profit in the future. For example he had decided to invest in the company that made the game called ‘Clash of clans’. This game was one of the most downloaded apps on Google play and Apple store. The revenue generated by this game was as high as 1 million dollars per day. The company had valuation of 6 billion dollars.
Second was the app called Snapchat. At its height, this app had 25 photos being uploaded per second. Upon being made public, this app was valued to around 6 billion dollars too. Third was Instagram. This had become the world’s most used app for photo sharing. It had been acquired by Facebook at a value of 20 billion dollars. He had many such ideas. He would create an investment company and with that he would create an empire. He had already asked Ryan to find all the information about Instagram since it would be released next year.
Now that he had taken care of his future, he could focus on the thing he wanted to do the best. And that was the entertainment field. He had already posted 3 songs on his YouTube channel. That had garnered him quite a bit of reputation. He had already been contacted by the fashion agency who audition would be tomorrow. He was quite nervous about the audition. He had no contact with the fashion industry in his previous lifetime. As compared to singing and acting,this was quite new for him. He had already bought the Modelling skill from the system. He had watched a lot of tutorials on Modelling. He had a little bit of grasp regarding Modelling now. He wasn’t a complete noob now.

Even after so many tutorials, his Modelling skill hadn’t reached the ‘Student level’. He would have to compensate that with his gorgeous looks.
The audition was going to be in the evening. In the morning ,tomorrow, he would be meeting his agent. His father had finally found him one. He had been one of his father’s clients. He had been wrongly accused of a crime, for which his father had helped him.He was indebted to Logan’s father. His name was Edward Jenkins. He had a huge amount of experience in this field. He once had many newcomers under his wing. But after the crime scandal he had taken a sabbatical. It was only because Arthur Williams had asked help, that he had come out of his sabbatical. When he found that his client would be Arthur’s son Logan, he was more than happy to accept the job. This way he could repay the kindness Arthur had shown him. He would be meeting Arthur and Logan tomorrow in the morning. Arthur had already told him about the audition offer from Starlight Fashion agency. He had investigated the agency to find if something wrong came up but he had found none.
Upon watching Logan’s videos on YouTube, he had been thrilled. He came to the conclusion that Logan had a huge amount of potential. If everything went well, he would become big one day.
