From Loss to Systems โ€” My Collapse Blueprint

From Loss to Systems โ€” My Collapse Blueprint

A reflective chronicle on how failure, pressure, and existential despair forged the birth of Reltroner Studio.


๐Ÿง  Prelude: The Invisible Timeline

I didnโ€™t come from a broken family. I came from a temporarily stable one โ€” until the crash. In 2016, my family was affected by the oil crisis, and from that moment, everything shifted. I was no longer the student with potential. I was the kid from a household in crisis.

While others had tutors and access to extracurriculars, I uploaded my first YouTube video just to identify an unknown Roblox song. Not for fame. Just for survival curiosity.


๐Ÿ“‰ Chapter I: The False Start

From 2017 to 2019, I thought YouTube would save me. I recorded gameplay videos in silence. I didn't know what โ€œbrandingโ€ was. I only knew one thing: "I must not go invisible."

In 2020, I gave in to family pressure โ€” UTBK, IT major, academic conformity. But the real me was suffocating. From 2020 to 2022, I experienced the first abyss: burned out, disoriented, unable to align with university expectations. No mentor. No system. No hope.

But somehow, I created one video animation with Paint Tool SAI, Premiere, and After Effects. It was never published. It wasnโ€™t content โ€” it was survival art.


๐Ÿ“‰ Chapter II: The Illusion of Trading

From 2022 to early 2025, I became obsessed with crypto trading. Not out of greed โ€” out of desperation. I wanted control. I wanted sovereignty. And I thought trading was the shortcut.

Then came the second collapse: 95% capital loss. I had no degree, no income, and no external proof of my worth.

So I built Reltroner.


๐Ÿ”ง Chapter III: From Code to Clarity

In just 2.5 months, I built:

  • Reltroner.com
  • 200+ .md structured pages: philosophy, governance, culture, law, systems
  • Laravel-based HRM system
  • CI/CD pipelines and Next.js 15 site

I wasnโ€™t building a portfolio. I was building my survival architecture.


๐Ÿงฑ The Lesson

All those years werenโ€™t wasted:

  • YouTube era taught me to ship.
  • Failed animation taught me to layer meaning.
  • Dropout phase taught me to detach from institutional validation.
  • Crypto loss taught me to respect volatility and time.

Every scar became a .md file. Every failed shortcut became a pillar. Every invisible year became my compounding divergence.


๐ŸŒŒ Today

I'm still unemployed. Still tired. Still building. But now I know:

My losses werenโ€™t the end. They were the tuition for the system I now live inside.

Reltroner is not a website. It is my recovery made visible.

So if you feel like nothing is working โ€” maybe, just maybe โ€” itโ€™s not failure. Itโ€™s the beginning of your own civilization.
