Introduction - Hello from Ireland

[aoluain]

Hello All,

This is actually my second post !

There doesnt seem to be a welcome board here so I thought I would introduce myself.

I live in Ireland and have recently got into Cryptocurrency. My brother has been prompting
me to "invest" as he bought BTC a few years ago. So back in January I made a small
purchase and I have been adding every other week and have a nice LITTLE spread.

I have computer knowledge but not in the programming field! I can do the usual
little jobs, change graphics cards, hard drives blah blah blah......
I also do some Web and Graphic Design.

I have to congratulate both Bitcontalk and its users for a VAST amount of information.
I have been reading on and off for the last 2 months and it hard sometimes to sift
through the conflicting opinions etc.
But overall I an enjoying the learning curve!!

I have a feeling that this year will/may be a big year for cryptocurrencies . . .

Welcome sir! You've come to right place.

Are you planning on simply acquiring bitcoins waiting for the price to go up or are you planning on investing in Altcoins as well?

If you are, be very careful, don't believe anyone and only invest in what you're willing to lose.

Other than that: have a good time on this forum!

[aoluain]

Thank you RJX!

I have "invested" [i use the word lightly] in Bitcoin along with 4 other Alt's
nothing major. I work a day job and I have plenty of bills and other commitments
so I'll be adding to my portfolio as I go along and when I have a few extra floating funds!

I suppose I'm thinking of the future but I know these coins could go any way
