I still feel kinda new,but it wasn't really until the gox got above 10 again did I have any interest again and had many variable coins all over.I think if the news started reporting on BTC there would obviously be another flood.

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, but full nodes are more resource-heavy, and they must do a lengthy initial syncing process. As a result, lightweight clients with somewhat less security are commonly used.

I'm new and I signed up because I wanted to start exchanging btc face to face, plus sell anything I can make or source locally. I'm trying to build up some btc balance it's my latest interest.

I'm new.

I started buying BTC in June, after a few months of reading. Turned out to be great timing Cool I'd heard about bitcoin before, and loved the idea, but hadn't had the time to do enough research to get involved in any meaningful way.

Since the growth has been so dramatic it's been a bit hard to shut me up about bitcoin lately Cheesy A few of my mates have since bought BTC. Another has started accepting BTC for her jeans.

Pure speculation, but I'm sure there are many like me, and it's being reflected in the price.

I'm new, but I've been lurking (off and on) for over 18 months.

At first I said "Duh, there's a 21 million cap, how's this economy s'posed to grow? Sounds like the Great Depression"

Then I checked out the graph of the long term gold price

Then I bought a little cache of coins

Then some more

Now I'm here, and I'm rich! (I think.... I hope......!)

Not new, but haven't been posting recently. Only really got exciting in the last month or so, and here I am. Was mining and trading last year. Bought Crysis with bitcoins to play on my mining rig Grin

Yep, I'm new.  I've been lurking on speculation for quite a while now, but wanted to make my investment before talking it up.  I've now almost fully invested the amount I've allocated for this, so am coming out of the woodwork.  I'm not what you folks call a "big player".  For me it's a significant proportion of my own savings, but still an amount I can afford to lose, of course.  This makes me what you people would call "long", but I can't quite bring myself to use that jargon yet, so I'll just say I've invested in it.

Long means you've bought and expect it to go up. Short means you have sold borrowed coins and hope to rebuy them at a low price to repay them - expecting the price to go down. It's not really jargon. Welcome! Smiley

Okay.  Would you agree that it's terminology which is especially defined in relationship to a specific activity, though?

Welcome! Smiley

Thanks.

Sure, but it extends to the whole world of trading. Although I live in the trading world so I can see how it's as common as bread to me. Silly me thinking everyone knows what it all means. Sorry! Cheesy
