yeah, i was surprised at Trace too.
well, he was a late comer to the game. he didn't show up in this thread until 2012 and as a follower of his RuntoGold blog, he admitted he missed it at first back in 2010 or so but picked it up for real i think in 2012 when he showed up here.
Doesn't he say he first started actively recommending (maybe he's stretching that) bitcoin to people at $0.05 - $0.25? That'd have to be late 2010 or early 2011...
