Title: BitcoinTalk, Here We Are :-)
Post by: hawas on September 22, 2013, 02:14:31 AM
Hello everyone,

This is my first post, so here is some background.
My name is Khaled Hawas, I am 37 years old from Cairo, Egypt.
I somehow bumped into Bitcoin a couple months earlier, and we fell in love :). I had a spare desktop with i7 3770, 32GB, (how did I end up with such a "spare" desktop is a long story :D), so I went out shopping and converted it to a whooping 185kh/s scrypt + 2.0 CPD XMP rig (with an Amd 7770 oc)
I am a developer and a trader, so I kinda feel in wonderland  ;D
My pet altcoin is XPM, I love primes.

Now it was time to join the Holy BitcoinTalk Forum.

Nice to meet you all.

Cheers

Hello Khaled. Nice to see you here! How is the situation in the Egypt? I saw a documentary about the latest military coup, has it calmed down since?

It is getting better everyday, but we still have a long way to go :)
By the way, disregarding technical terms and definitions, most people here don't consider what happened "military coup" as there were huge demonstrations (20-30 millions) requesting the military to intervene, and asking for the supreme court head judge to be interim president and a government from the opposition, which is what happened exactly.
