[Financial News] Lawyer and broadcaster Danielle Dongjoo Suh said she had invested her entire salary in crypto assets when she was a new lawyer and used the gains to buy a home.
On the 12th, a video titled “New lawyer Danielle Dongjoo Suh put her salary into crypto, then became a global event host 10 years later!” was uploaded to the YouTube channel “Seo Dong-joo's Tto.Do.Dong.”
In the video, Danielle Dongjoo Suh shared footage of herself hosting Korea Blockchain Week (KBW) 2026.
That day, Danielle Dongjoo Suh revealed, “I first came across Bitcoin in 2018, when I was working at a law firm.”
She said, “A blockchain division was set up at our law firm. When I asked my senior colleagues, ‘What is blockchain?’ they explained it to me. My seniors said, ‘Everything will be tokenized in the future’ and ‘everything will move on-chain.’”
She continued, “Back then, I was an ambitious new hire, so I put my entire paycheck into Bitcoin and Ethereum. They tripled in just three months. Later, I even used them to buy a house.”
That experience later led to work related to crypto assets as well. Recalling how she came to host content for the financial YouTube channel Sampro TV, Danielle Dongjoo Suh said, “In the interview, they asked, ‘Do you know much about virtual assets?’ so I told them about my investment history up to that point. I’d bought just about everything—not only Bitcoin, Ethereum, Ripple (XRP) and Litecoin, but also altcoins and meme coins.”
She added, “I certainly wasn't doing it with the intention of working at Sampro, but seeing a position like this come up 10 years later makes me think that everything in life is connected.”
