I speak a language of SHA 256, BitInstant, public-private key cryptography, giga-hashes per second, and I’m considering building a substantial mining rig to support the network and always be able to keep a copy of the block-chain.
Yup, I’m speaking Bitcoin language again. My twitter is updated to “Drank the #bitcoin kool-aid” and I religiously preach it on every DonkDown radio show.
