 IIRC I heard of bitcoin like a year or so ago, when investigating about the deep web.
 Now I am interested on it because I want to invest.

Since I'm new and need to get my first post out of the way, might as well make it a fun topic..

I first heard of bitcoin several months ago, but didn't think too much of it. I heard about it rising in April and then crashing, and assumed it was 'over' and had vague regrets for not knowing and being interested in it sooner.

I started hearing about bitcoin more often from one of my roommates, who has been following and using it for about a year.
About two weeks ago he decided to show me and some of the other roommates how to set up a wallet and gift us each .001 BTC to 'get us started.'
Since then it's risen quite a bit. I started doing some research and plan to start putting small amounts of money into bitcoin when I am more *ahem* financially secure.
