I know how you feel, I've become immersed in the crypto currency field. For the last month, I have been spending every single minute of free time learning about the business, if you want to call it that. I feel that while Bitcoin is the king at this point, it will quickly be passed by a few alt coins that have a faster block chain, with more security.
Good luck to us both

Tell me about it. If I'd of known about this in 2009 I would of put a massive chunk of money into it and I'd be a millionaire now. I even had 160btc and sold them when they were at £80 i am KICKING MYSELF! But hey ho, ive got a 4 gpu ltc mining rig set up now with 3 cards to add. I'm thinking of getting up to 12 across 2 boards so hopefully that should get me some money back.
If you guys were me with about 8btc to my name.. what would you do with it to make yourself more money... I was messing around with CEX.IO for a bit, but now they are in my wallet....
