Hi, I'm Neo CortX
I got familiar with bitcoin after watching Max Keiser on RT. He was talking about Bitcoin, and I figure I could check it out even though it was probably just another scam.
Was I ever wrong.
I have studied economics and finance for quite a few years, and I also know a few things about cryptography. It was easy to see that the Bitcoin protocol offered something completely new, and within one week of hearing the word "Bitcoin", I had purchased my first stock of bitcoins and sent it to my computer. I actually came up with a similar idea to Bitcoin back in 2007, but I was not even close to being able to implement anything like it. But naturally, when some brilliant genius(es) figured out a way to solve many of the problems, I fell in love immediately.
I'm still in love, even though I clearly see some of the minor flaws in the system.
The system is built around a lucid and solid ethical standard, which helps strengthen the system. A few weaknesses can be said to be found in the implementation, but these might be fixed over time.
If this system will be able to sustain the attacks that will inevitably come from governments, this system can change the human condition like nothing else. If Bitcoin succeed, I think it might change the human condition more than internet itself. I see a world of peace and prosperity if it succeeds. Wars will be impossible to conduct, since large scale wars always are conducted by governments with access to printing presses.
I "pray" to reality that the developers of Bitcoin will be able to fortify the Bitcoin system before it's taken down. If it's not taken down, this might be "the reason that internet was created".

I have heard of this project before a bit and am trying it out now. I was crunching for gpu grid for a bit and am finding that boinc gpu crunching and bitcoin do not play nice together. Oh well.
I am having a bad time trying to set up namecoin and getting it running but one thing at a time.
glad to be here.

Hi, I am a european computer engineer. I am currently working as a researcher within High performance computing with a focus on optimization of software on distributed architectures.
But i have been doing a little bit of everything computer wise.

Hi all, i'm new in the site and in the bitcon world! Welcome, and good to see things are still going strong here. This is my first post, as I work on getting set up with ABCPool, and Bitcoin in general. (Been interested in the theory for a while, but just started actually getting involved.) Thanks, and have a great day!

Hey,
Joined cause I figured I could pick up a nice graphics card from someone on the board when the ASICs hit. Plus I just started mining a few months ago... Wish I had started sooner!
Unfortunately I have to wait through the newbie period. But its nice to be here!
