Title: Newbie first post
Post by: smartbrain on November 26, 2013, 12:50:58 PM
Hi everyone,

Been lurking for months. I got into the game pre-Cyprus and got a load of 7970's to mine quite a bit. Back then it was less than 40 dollars and quite different from what we have today. In retrospect, it would have been much, much more profitable to just buy BTC and sit on it rather than go into mining. Oh, well.

Just put in an order for some BlackArrow Prospero miners, slated for late February delivery. Fingers crossed. Should be nice.

Buying coins is a pain as the banks don't really let you transfer money that easily in my country. Easier to buy miners.

So, what else can I say? So now I just sit and wait for my newbie status to be lifted, right?

Once you have been on here for four hours, plus the post, then the status changes. Lots of interesting stuff to read. :-)
