Title: Hello everyone! Post by: physics137 on August 24, 2013, 10:27:57 PM Hello everyone,
I am a physics PhD student and lover of free markets! My first foray into bitcoin was back in 2010 when I invested $300 in my friends mining rig. Boy do I wish I had invested more! Since then I have been lurking, watching bitcoin thrive and grow. I am naturally skeptical of just about everything, and bitcoin was certainly no exception. However, after watching bitcoin grow and having been "behind the curve" on several exciting developments several times, I feel like I need to get more involved in the bitcoin community. I am still bothered by the large block chain size and slow verification speeds, but as I understand some future changes to the bitcoin protocol could remedy these issues. Anyway, I am happy to be joining the forum and I look forward to being involved in new developments. Here are some recent developments I am following: -- The "Bitshares" project [https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=279771.msg2989563#msg2989563 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=279771.msg2989563#msg2989563)] -- Coinbase and Ripple -- Investing in bitcoin related projects with Bitfunder [https://bitfunder.com/ (https://bitfunder.com/)] Title: Re: Hello everyone!
