Many people are lurkers who want to remain anonymous.
I am not as concerned as I probably should be.
For the most part the site is quite anonymous though and it is great to post ideas and speculate about what the price is doing and where it is going and it is also very useful in trying to understand why the market is going up or down.
I owe many people on this forum a huge "thank you" for giving great examples of the potential of Bitcoin and it has helped keep me grounded when the price has fluctuated. I was able to weather the lows and just hold through them all, thanks in part to learning from others on here.
There are some "veterans" on this site and their knowledge is very valuable!
i've known about this site since 2011.. but decided not to post because i was a bit paranoid about the whole idea of bitcoins, and government wanting to lock it down... but i figured it's time to take my pants off and join in on the fun
We did not even buy any Bitcoin until we heard that there were going to be money laundering laws put into place. That cost us quite a bit in the long run, because we were not as early of adopters as we could have been. Of course, we were not entirely sure Bitcoin would succeed at that point either though.
