Hx01, a Bugcrowd researcher, shares his journey into cybersecurity, starting with learning phishing at age 12 and being motivated by Orange Tsai's writeup on Remote Code Execution. He started hunting bugs in late 2016 but left for two years before returning in July 2019. Hx01 now hunts part-time, spending around 10-15 hours a week, and aims to earn over $500,000 on Bugcrowd by age 21. He credits Bugcrowd's Triage team and support for his continued participation, and shares tips such as reading documentation and practicing vulnerability classes to improve skills. Hx01 emphasizes the importance of persistence, even in the face of duplicates or N/A's, and encourages new hackers to join the community.
