The real way for a computer geek to earn money other then farming golds...

I heard about it about a year ago but didn't research anything about it until 2 months ago. I became fully convinced in the potential of bitcoin after watching a video on youtube where Andreas Antonopoulos explained it in more detail.

1000 is still just the beginning. We may see 200 again, but unless Bitcoin fails, we will see 10.000+ eventually.

It's just a fact. Now I'm not saying it will never fail, but if it doesn't before it really goes mainstream, yes, 1000 is only the beginning.

Decided to finally start playing poker in BTC. Not sure why I waited so long. So much more easier in so many ways.

Winpoker accepts Bitcoin (this is not a referral link, just thought I would mention it).

There are plenty of others of course Smiley

I just searched bitcoin and scrolled down. Here's the link if you're interested. It's a very good detailed explanation of how bitcoin works. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JP9-lAYngi4

I never heard of it until a few weeks ago through friends. I didnt give it much thought until recently that it has been in the media I guess. So I decided to create a wallet and thanks to a friend I have my own in blockchain. I think if I buy some bitcoin I will keep some for investment maybe and use it to buy thing online. I think it is great that I could order online without too much hassle or personal information. Smiley

People on youtube were going crazy spreading the word and giving out coins but at the time I waited to long to get a wallet and then there was a crash so I kind of missed the boat.

I had heard about btc back earlier this year when they were at $3 each. I tried to buy 30 from... Mt. Gox iirc... but couldn't because I don't hold any credit cards (I hate the concept). A month or so I heard about it hitting $80, was going to buy 3, but was lazy getting verified from Coinbase... When it hit 130 I got my act together and bought 1. A week ago I remembered I had an account on here and logged in.
