A friend in the army was talking about it really early, this was in 2010, march-april, he also introduced me to reddit and I've been a lurker for a year til I made an account and recently reached three years.
He said he used it to buy digital goods for some online games, and that he could get the coins through his computer to pay for it, basically turning electricity into a form of payment for his wow gold. He was living at home so electricity was free for him, somewhat.
Forgot about it, started hearing it in the news mid 2013, decided not to buy since I'm still studying and never really have any extra income/money to spare.
Since november-december I've been mining altcoins trying to make bitcoins that I can save and hopefully make a nice profit in the next couple of years.
Gambling has been a major issue in my efforts to save btc though.
