I was actually hoping to buy a couple extra Monero before the announcement, but I literally can't buy Bitcoin right now.
Coinbase is having issues with their site, Bitstamp wants a ton of documents, Kraken has been verifying my Level 1 account since yesterday...

People hoping to get into bitcoin aren't going to pay crazy fees or deal with some random person on a forum.
It seems like the ability to convert fiat to crypto (and vice versa) is still the biggest hurdle to investing these days...
