Poll: When did you first hear about bitcoin and when will the masses support us?

I heard about bitcoin when that guy threw away his harddrive (of 7,000 bitcoins).  I saw on the news and I got interested in bitcoin.

Late 2010 here!

Did I buy a ton? I talked a lot about it but never did.

I started buying hundreds of Bitcoins and then spending them all when I learned about Silk Road the following year. Idiot.

But what has this got to do with speculation?

Bitfinex victims. DO NOT TOUCH THE BFX TOKEN! Start moving it around, or trading it, and you will be construed as having accepted it as an alternative means of payment to your USD, BTC, etc.

Early spring 2012 listening to Donk Down radio Bryan "The Icon" Micon.

I never thought my life could be. Anything but catastrophe. But suddenly I begin to see. A "BIT" of good luck for me. Cause I've got a golden ticket!
