So, have arrived late to this crypto-currency malarky?

Hi everyone,

So, I happened across Bitcoin kind off by accident and had heard of it but not taken it further then. I've spent about 20 hours reading up on it over the last 4/5 days including 2 very late 4am nights! I reckon I am getting there on understanding how it all works to the point of just about to buy a Black Arrow unit for February.

I will not kid myself and will always keep it real and not get my hopes up too high, etc. I am also patient and do not mind waiting for a ROI and quite happy to reinvest in more units, regularly, and take a moderate lower income say £150/200 per month if I can get that whilst helping the security of the network, there will be a hobby element to my endeavours too.

I find this all very interesting by starting to touch on the more esoteric side of things, I can see that this is still in it's infancy as a currency and imo probably a good time to get into based on that point alone but there are obviously many other facets to this debate

However, have I arrived too late due to the current price/conditions and other factors and is the best way to start to make moderate money to get a 100Mh/s units like the Black Arrow Prospero X-1?

Any answers or insight/comments welcome

Regards
Ghola
