I would like to hear peoples stories about how they first heard about Bitcoin ?
I read about it in Wired Magazine in early 2013. I was familiar with gold farming in WOW so it didnt seem too outlandish. It took a second mention in the media in November 2013 for me to pay attention and find this forum on google.
My first time hearing about bitcoin was late 2012, early 2013 from a friend who was always looking for a get rich quick scheme. I didnt pay him much attention, since his schemes never seemed to work.
Later in 2013 I heard again, but this time from a wealthy friend. This friend owned a Ferrari, Porsche and Lamborghini (and several other nice cars) as well as a few houses. Thats when I took a serious look, and I started mining soon after.

P.S. I was also a WoW gold farmer some time before lol
