Wow! Kwal, you may not know it but BurtW is a very humble "somebody" here. He often provides talks about Bitcoin around the US. He's one of the best contacts you could make here.
I also want to welcome you to this world. There's a lot to explore, so hopefully you don't get bored quickly! Have you looked into Ripple yet? I'd be curious to know your thoughts as someone who's just entered this market.
Good luck to you.
Yeah, forums do get abused, that's why I'm happy to see this one is actually moderated.
Glad to be here! Hopefully my dreams do start coming true
