Hi guys,

I recently started following and gathering information about crypto-currencies, I am really excited in how this is going to develop in the future!

Hi, my name is butterstick, and I'm a panda at the National Zoo in Washington DC.

Actually, I'm a software engineer (Java, iOS, C/C++, PHP) of 15 years experience, currently working as Senior Manager Java Engineering at ESPN. I've got a background in access control and cryptography, so I've been following crypto currencies for a while. Was going to wait to start mining till ASICs hit the market, but that is so slow I'm going the traditional mining route instead. Currently mining on slush's pool, and working on a couple of mining rigs.

I'm interested in bitcoin both technically and politically. The idea of signed ledgers have been around for a while, but this distribution techniques of the bitcoin network are what make it very interesting to me. My wife and I also took all our money out of the TBTF banks over the last 3 years, and bank exclusively at our local credit union. Bitcoin is a very appealing option to us for the usual reasons... but mostly because I'm tired of PayPal taking a chunk when I get paid for the freelance software dev I do at night.

Speaking of which, I'd love to contribute to any projects or services in the bitcoin community that think they could use a strong developer.

I cried the other day just realizing how powerful this new form of currency is.  It was a tremendous emotional realize, and didn't even have a bitcoin at that point.  I have ONE now, and feel much much better.  Thank you for this forum and all the great members in this community sharing each their own ideas, and helping me understand what is going on and prepare for what is going to happen.  I am looking forward to participating and engaging in this community.

BTC/LTC miner looking to learn more and promote P2Pool.  I think distributed pooling is the future.  Expecially with the current drama about BTCGuild critical mass.

Might as well post more crap to reach the post count :p I found out about bitcoins through a friend who used them. I've got my PC setup and mining at ~200MH/s using guiminer through a pool, I know it's not much im planning on putting a second 5770 in there. I wouldnt mind buying or investing third party in an asic miner

Hia folks,

Monkey here. Live in the UK and work as Secure Network Specialist. Have been reading the forum for a few months now, so thought I'd sign up and increase the UK contingent. Heard about BTC's a good year or 2, but apart from a passing interest, I never dived in.

Cheers

Well, I suppose I should start here. I'm Paul, a software developer in Tampa Bay, Florida.

OK, I was going to offer some settings suggestions to someone with some 7970s mining LTC--my 7970 averages a tad over 700K. But alas, I can't post there.

I've been mining BTC, LTC, PPC, TRC for a couple weeks (I like to diversify...lol), and couldn't get my coins into btc-e fast enough to take advantage of the crazy bubbles in PPC and TRC last night. God knows I tried. Ah well.
