Yea, I first heard about Bitcoin on an episode of The Good Wife. I checked it out, planned to buy some... the only real option at the time was Mt Gox. I got an account and they wanted a copy of my drivers lic. Um... I stopped at that point. Still not sure if this was a good thing or a bad thing, cause the price at that time was much lower. ;(
Lol the same thing happened to me
I read about Bitcoin when it was a few cents, but didn't buy any until they were around 80$! Thankfully Bitcoin only started the trend, and now we got altcoin with as much, or more, promise.
Speaking of promises, didn't the developers hope to have a beta for PoS going by now?
In the grand scheme of things it's not a big deal if it takes a while, but it seems like a lot of development is on hold until PoS is over and done. I have my fingers crossed that we'll get there before July the 5th
