Hello,

I'm a Quant, Statistician, and Data Scientist.  Almost done with my PhD in statistics and am looking forward to applying my knowledge to the Bitcoin world.

I'm starting to develop an analysis of Bitcoin market micro-structure and would appreciate any insight that people have.

Thanks!
Even if you use Bitcoin through Tor, the way transactions are handled by the network makes anonymity difficult to achieve. Do not expect your transactions to be anonymous unless you really know what you're doing.

Guessing this slang meaning.
"An expert in the use of mathematics and related subjects, particularly in investment management and stock trading."
It does sound like a typo just saying it, though.

Welcome, I am also new to the forums but have been mining bitcoins for a couple of years now. Good to have someone with a brain like yours contributing to the future of the bitcoin currency.

Thanks- I just looked that up myself and was going to post it for everyone.  I've been reading this forum for weeks and only now had something to say- but I'm in a hurry so the training wheels are kind of a pain.

TheSpiral got it right.

One of the many things I do is work on financial models, algorithmic trading, portfolio optimization, etc.  "Quant" is just a fancy term that encompasses all that stuff.
