Hello. I've been registered on this forum since 2011 but haven't participated. But have read a lot of the posts (some of which are really informative) over the last couple of years. So thank you to the contributors.

I've had a bitcoin wallet for more than 2 years with a few BTC - made some feeble attempts to mine with CPUs a couple of years back. I've watched passively so far - will try to do more to contribute going forward.

Signed up for a Ripple account. I'm very supportive of something like it finding success among a wide user base. International transfers need to be cheaper.
