Pretty much.  Not just newbies either.  I've been involved in 20,000 BTC worth of trades here and sold goods in dozens of different countries and I still get the 3rd degree from every buyer who orders an oz of silver from me.  Welcome to bitcointalk.  It only gets better...  /sarcasm

Off topic radio aside, how about this price action today?  The market now expecting a rate cut in the near future.  Hopefully we see a similar (or much larger) candle when MSTR gets included in the S&P500 index.  The next couple of weeks could be fun.
