I only heard about bitcoin and crypto's in general maybe the middle of last year. Not very long after finding out my government indoctrination training, AKA school, had done a great job lying to me about how the federal reserve, money, and our government work. I still kept questioning, well everything and learned what's up, but I digress.
Without going into to much detail I don't exactly have a lot of "investment" money. Having learned about silver first and preferring the ability to actually touch it that's where it has been going so far. As I learned more about the crypto's and watched them go up, I started talking to people about it. My wife, co-workers, family, and found that mostly none of them even knew what it was, much less how much it was worth or how long bitcoin has been around. So today, after a lot of research, I bought my very first little fraction of a bitcoin.
Needless to say I'm super excited. I really think that crypto's are the future, though I'd still consider myself a silver bug. Just wanted to share with my fellow steemians
