I have been on the forums for more than 4 hours, and this is my third post, I suppose I've become a member now.  Might as well give an introduction.

After playing around with Bitcoin and other cryptos, I've found Bitcoin has made a huge imprint on the financial world and some companies are getting nervous.  It seems like everyone is talking about it now.  It didn't used to be that way.  For example, Paypal used to seem like it was excited about Bitcoin back when they said they were considering Bitcoin implementation.  Now it seems they are worried and want to compete.  I see this Paypal ad a lot of a lady walking into a shop with her cell phone, pressing the price she needs to pay in front of the cashier, clicking, "send", and mentioning how quick and easy it is.  It seems that is where a lot of people want Bitcoin to be.  I think that we will get there soon, and we all need to try contribute to legal bitcoin businesses. 

Anyway I am excited to get more involved in the Bitcoin/altcoin community.  I have mined Bitcoin/Litecoin on and off since 2011.  Besides Bitcoin of course, as I'm writing there's a lot of hype right now over Dogecoin and CoinyeCoin right now.  Tongue
