Genuinely Inspired

[Jan]

All the people I know that have met or are friends with you Erik have all felt the same way so that is quite the endorsement as well.  Someone the other night said "I would trust Erik with my financial life."

I was there, and I don't want to rain on anyone's parade, but I believe it was another Erik who was mentioned in that context yesterday ;-)

That being said. Erik Voorhees, you are a true inspiration to many of us, and I am delighted to have you among us.

The brain power involved is also my main reason to think that the current valuation is way below true value. Any venture capitalist worth his salt would throw much more money at such an awesome team of people working on such a game-changing projet.

I'm extremely new to the whole Bitcoin world. I first started hearing of it and learning about it two weeks ago, and bought my first Bitcoins two days ago. I'm completely absorbed with the whole idea and desperately want to see it succeed. That being read, where can I find Bitcoin startups and send some BTC their way to help with their success?

Welcome! Yes "absorbed" is the word I'd use to describe how I felt when I first discovered this crazy thing in May of last year.

To find Bitcoin startups, you can see many in peoples' forum signatures, but all there is the big list of BTC accepting sites here:  https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Trade  Also look in the Marketplace subforum where many startup announcements are made.
