First post! hello hello everybody
Hello everyone! I feel like I am getting to the party a bit late. But, YAY, I made it here!

My name is Ashley. I live in Cape Breton Island Nova Scotia. I am concerned about where the world is headed and suspect Bitcoin might be offering some form of positive contribution / solution but am becoming increasingly leary of anything online, indeed am scaling back computer use after having spent far too much time online since the 1980's, and moreover can't make head or tail of what Bitcoin is. The description makes no sense to me. The forum is far too vast with millions of posts.
It all seems fantastic and I wish you well.
But for myself, I shall continue to turn away from the para-local, international, global, cyber world and get back into the real world. My big projects this year are, along with continuing to run a small organic brick oven bakery, learning how to plant and grow vegetables and other plants, along with helping a neighbour set up a 160 acre organic farm and forest property to which I hope to move one day.
Maybe in a few years when you guys have established bitcoin and it is widely available and proven safe, then I can offer it as a payment option for my breads rather than central bank issued promissory notes, but for now I suspect a better system would be the current currencies, albeit not issued by private corporate creditors to populations, rather publicly issued interest free as a simple medium of exchange.
I joined the forum because I had stumbled onto the thread by ZeroDay about his losses in Cyprus and wanted to refer many of the more confused readers there to an article about Economic Hit Men, an interview with John Perkins who wrote the book of that name. The article is on the Global Research site.

People on that thread seem confused about whether the banks in Cyprus were responsible, or the govt or whatever. It seems that many people, even Bitcoin enthusiasts, still don't understand just how corrupt the entire machinery of modern finances is.
And - don't take this wrong - for all I know Bitcoin is going to be part of that corruption later on.
Anyway - all best, I hope it works and if it does, I'll be baaaaack.....

Hello. I'm metabyte. I've been studying cryptocurrency for years. I've been seeing some very exciting developments lately, so I decided to join this forum and get involved with the community.
Hi guys, I am psilos and I am new to bitcoin world.
im kevin,very glad to meet u guys here
Hello everyone, just joined the BTC craze. I'm buckling up my seatbelt and going to enjoy the ride!
Hi All,
I'm Alex and just recently joined the Bitcoin community.
I like the idea to have an on-line wallet so I can acces it from where I want. I started out with using Instawallet.org a bit. To me it seems like a good on-line wallet to get started with, you just have to remember that unique URL for you wallet.
I have also tried bips.me and now I have ended up with using blockchain.info.
For now I have just done a bit off sports betting with my bitcoins.
What are you other guys doing with your BTS's

Hello and good luck to everyone 
Hi everyone!
I don't want to say too much, but will say I thought a bunch about the signature on this post. I generated an address for donation at bitaddress.org, and copied it carefully onto a piece of paper (what if someone hacks into my printer? don't printers store old documents sometimes?).
But then I realized that I would want to have it backed up in at least two places. What if my house burns down? I'd have to store it digitally too. So I tried to see if I could copy it into my local Bitcoin-qt wallet. Unencrypted it, fired up bitcoin, but couldn't figure out how to paste in a private key. Can't seem to find the import button.
So I just generated a new address in there and am using that, and it's backed up in "the cloud" so that seems safe enough.
Once I had an address, I thought for a bit about whether to put instructions in the signature. I decided that it sort of speaks for itself.

Hello everyone just joined this forum recently and hope to contribute more soon. I've only learned about bitcoins a couple months ago but have totally fallen in love with it and plan to work on a variety of projects related to bitcoins soon.
Re: PrimaHoss
I'm originally from Montana so not that far away from Wyoming. Living in the Philippines with a really slow connection and good GPUs or any components are hard to come by due to the price and scarcity. Running my CPU right now with 6Kh/s. Sucks. I figured the extra cash from mining the right coins and exchanging them on the market could cover some bills here. But electricity is 4 times more expensive in the Ph. Islands. One of the worst. Not sure if this will work. Maybe I"ll just mine some really devalued cryptocurrencies and just play with them on the exchanges.
