Title: Re: how soon did you start mining after first hearing about bitcoin? Post by: SirLolicon on June 03, 2013, 10:01:41 AM 2 years here I started mining after 1 year after learning about bitcoin. But it didn't last long, as the difficulty rose preeetty quickly. But at times I still try. Tried...

Post by: steelcutoatmeal on June 03, 2013, 08:53:23 PM Heard about the new bitcoin currency last year but didn't really take it serious until earlier this year. Mining when the BFL product ships, which might be when I'm gray.
