Bitcoin is on the market for about 2 1/2 years from now.
You can have a look on this chart: http://bitcoincharts.com/charts/mtgoxUSD#ig6-hourztgCzm1g10zm2g25zv

Noo not big like that by any means.. Just a player. I probably play more than I should lol but in no means can I generate a large amount of traffic to any site.

On the poker forums I am on, btc's are definitely being talked about seriously. The thought of new sites where you can potentially play online LEGALLY is very exciting in the poker community.

I first came across bit coins probably about a year ago or so. Like I said I kind of shrugged it off at the time.. Should of gotten involved then. I am looking for some type of 3 or 5yr chart for bit coins? Does one exist?

Thanks

Hello Jenger here!
I first came across bit coins when they were about $4/1btc. Saw them not too long ago at $8/1btc, then at $15/1btc.. now at $33/1btc.
When I first heard of this market, I thought it wasn't going to be a BIG hit. But it grew, faster than I ever expected. I knew the "black market" was a big player with bit coins and I thought that's where it would end. Now I see a potential money maker with the introduction of online gambling (poker) with infinity and I am sure others. As a poker player I know this is potentially huge if sites can generate enough traffic. This would IMO drive the market up.
I am sketched out & have read horror stories of people losing large sums of money through computer error and that has kept me from ever purchasing any btc. I have a LR account that I have made months ago but that's as far as i've gotten.
Looking forward to chatting with some of you guys here.

Hi Jenger,

There were a few times when bitcoins hit $4, when was it that you learned of Bitcoin?

Do you think you are involved enough in the Poker community that you could convince someone (preferably a larger site) to accept Bitcoins?  Grin
