Hi! I am excited to be becoming a part of this community...I have been researching and investing in many coins over the last few months and I am extremely excited by all the advances that are sure to happen in 2014!

I also have an intense interest in mining, but I have not done too much of it yet...I hope that this will count as my first post because I am looking forward to gaining access to the other areas of the forum...do you all think that this post is enough? Do I need to respond to a few other posts first? Or do I just need to wait the hour?
