Bug Hunting Journey - Day 1

Bug Hunting Journey - Day 1

I don’t know exactly why I started this, but I know one thing I need money.
One day, I saw someone make $3,000 in just 4 hours. That blew my mind.

Back in the day, I was always super curious.

In 2007, I did my first phishing attempt at an internet café
using the /etc/hosts file to mask domains with local IPs.

But that was just something I tried once, out of curiosity.
Over time, I got deeper into code.
Now, things are different.

Today, I want to focus on one thing: Bug Hunting.

This is not just about focusing on that one thing,
I’m trying something called ‘Self-Hacking.’
