I'm 36 - I've been a longtime lurker, first time poster. I heard about Bitcoin at the same time I heard about SR, I think it was a Wired article. Probably mid 2011. I just bought my first bitcoin literally 2 days before the SR takedown. I've been a gold bug since 07, so BTC caught my interest immediately... unfortunately back then I didn't have the spare change to invest and was too concerned with feeding my family, paying bills, etc.
I like the fundamentals surrounding the BTC economy. In addition to investing & using BTC now, I'm also accepting payment in Bitcoin for my web design business, though no one's taken me up on that payment option yet, it should only be a matter of time...

This may have been asked before, but I have not seen it. I guess many of you will try (and fail) to be funny with all sorts of jokes, but it would be interesting to know what kind of people are here right now.
Feel free to add your location too.
I'm in my mid-20s and reside in California (USA). I don't think I want to get too much more specific than that! Good to see so much diversity on the forums! |

Hello, I'm 27. I think it was open source world (as a long time Linux user) which brought me to Bitcoin. After my first ever BTC trade yesterday I can safely ask - why do we need banks anymore? |

I'm 56. My sons (23 and 29) got me into it- they built a custom GPU rig for BTC mining about 2 years ago. I started reading up on it, and when it came time to build a new PC for my home office, I got a nice case that can hold the longer GPU cards. I now run 2 cards in it (5830 and 5750). With the BTC difficulty increase, I have since switched them to LTC. Back in Feb 2013 I ordered a BFL 30 Gh Little Single, and just got it a week or so ago. It was defective. It came with only 2 screws holding the motherboard, and a rattling loose Mobo screw. Even after adding the screw, the PC couldn't see it, and the fan wouldn't turn. So still didn't run. . After an RMA, got a working one a quick week later and have been ASIC mining BTC's since. |

I am 32, and surprised I am about the median age. I heard about Bitcoin on Slashdot in about 2010, but dismissed it as an interesting concept that would never work. About a year later I actually started following it (Wow, worth over $1/BTC!), but did not buy until this summer. I am concerned that computers are fundamentally insecure. My Bitcoins are in cold storage until I can set up a "secure" computer for doing Bitcoin transactions. I also hope to set up a Bitcoin node (with token mining). So far have spent more on that than Bitcoins themselves  |
