[HeroC]

Post how you found out about BTC.

For example: 'I was on the Aether mine craft mod's homepage and there was a donate button.'

You can include any other information you want; images, transaction records, links, etc.

I will Put the most bizarre (true) stories here. (In no specific order)

1.

A couple of months ago, I was looking at ebay to look at copper bullion since I collect them as art. I saw one that said "Bitcoin". At first I thought it was a mint, or an alternative bullion currency like Lakota/AOCS. I Googled it and haven't stopped reading since.

2. Good start, but we can do better!
