I also bought 1000 DIVX initially, then upgraded to 10,000 so I could be at the gold masternode level. Super excited about this launch!
I have a question for you guys. I'm not just investing into DIVI to store value or speculate, I actually want to participate in this becoming a usable currency. I have a business where we sell and service copiers for other businesses. My question is, why, or under what circumstances, would an individual or business prefer to use crypto currency to purchase normal goods and services over USD? I definitely plan to incorporate a Divi payment method with my business, but can't figure out yet what the benefit is to normal businesses (I think it could complicate the bookkeeping). Thoughts?

This is an excellent point on merchant adoption, and one reason I was so impressed with Divi's plans in the WP to help merchants to move customers to adoption.

Early Adopters Fund for Merchants
The Divi Project is tackling this challenge by committing at leas t 10% of
its cash and coins to entice online merchants to accept DIVI as payment,
educational videos and staff to show them how it works, and to provide
them with easily embeddable tools to do so.
We don’t need every store online to accept DIVI, but we do need a critical
mass of them so that people with DIVI can spend it on something, and the
store owners themselves can in return spend it again, or use it for staking,
rather than just converting it to bitcoin or dollars. Our plan to start is to
get at least one good online vendor in every major category, in the biggest
markets such as the U.S. and Europe. These retailers will discover a new
revenue stream with DIVI, stick with us, and we expand from there.
It is indeed a good point, I would accept DIVI if i had a store for sure, Divi will go beyond the solar system.
