Be Here Now

I have no memory of life before I ended up reading over half of this thread:

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/wall-observer-btcusd-bitcoin-price-movement-tracking-discussion-178336

It went to hell from there but I did manage to get processed and picked up one whole bitcoin at $404 last week...so at least now I can play.

I've also had this site

http://bitcointicker.co/

and this one

https://bitcoinwisdom.com/

up and check it every half hour since 3 days before I bought (which was still before the 4 day wait time and current 4 day transfer time)...

I might've slept 24 hours, not in a row...this forum is the devil.

Core dev leaves me neg feedback #abuse #political

Well, one day I was hanging a clock in my bathroom.... I must've slipped and hit my head on the porcelain sink... And when I came to, I had a vision in my head and I drew this diagram. I call it the flux capacitor and it's what makes time travel possible. Oh wait, that's something else nevermind :-)

I got into bitcoin while I was earning dust on PTC sites. I found an ad of a program named "Rublik", which according to the site "performed calculations for the Bitcoin Network".

It paid users by downloading its software, and it paid by paypal. Just another bitcoin miner, but I found out about bitcoin.
Mined bitcoin at 77MH/s, and deposited onto inputs.io, and lost everything.
Oh well, I miss those days anyway.

Newzbin.com shutdowned in 2011!
Some similar sites only accept bitcoins, I remembered it was only $10/coin, but it was too hard to buy one.
So I started to mine just enough to pay for the subscription
I have regretted that I turned off the mining software.

Then last year, When bitcoin price suddenly jumped up to $200/coin.
I started to read more about it, more interested ever since.

at first I wanted to purchase some herbs online to resell them here Cheesy

but I realized that bitcoin itself is much more then herbs, that it is an investment much more worthy then some green stuff

hopefully this decision will bring me millions one day Cheesy

I heard about it on a forum back in 2011. Didn't understand how it worked though, so I never got any bitcoins. I rediscovered it back in 2012 and followed what happened within the bitcoin world, but I didn't get any bitcoins until 2013.

many people despite knowing about bitcoin early , missed the train but bitcoin has evolved greatly over the years.

Nah, I still think I'm an early adopter! Wink

In a few years I'll be rich thanks to Bitcoin! Grin

so you didn't buy pizza with your coins Tongue
