Topic: 22nd November 2009. Satoshi created a forum called "Bitcointalk". 10 Years ago. - page 2. (Read 676 times)

I don't think that has to do with anything, albeit it might pertain Luke-Jr lol.

Why? I still like my games and anime. Only time gets in the way, but when i find a moment, i go to them!

I didn't learn about the birthday in Wikipedia, there is a quite conspicuous link in the header of this forum up:

News: The forum is 10 years old today!

Pointing to the official birthday thread...

Guess who was born today: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Randal_L._Schwartz.

Wow, amazing how time flies,bitcointalk is unarguably the best Bitcoin forum ever. Happy birthday Bitcointalk.

What a shame that something started with the idea of FREEDOM, has turned into this.   Censorship here in this forum is rampant !!!  Any opinion that goes against the narrative of those wanting to pump up the price of Bitcoin is deleted, moved, locked, or otherwise killed.    Sure isolated posts that may detract from the price of Bitcoin are tolerated as long as they are reply's in a positive thread...  So some dissent is tolerated as long as it does not get to much attention.

THE MOMENT I POST A TOPIC THAT gains a lot of views and responses, it is KILLED using a number of various ways.

Even greedy, corrupt Wall Street allows the risks of investments to be published.   The Bitcoin forum is more corrupt and censured than the worst of wall street, and governments....  I have never been so heavily censored until I joined and started posting in Bitcointalk.org    Satoshi would be very disappointed about this.  But most people are greedy, and would never let something like freedom or the truth get in the way of their plans of getting rich by pumping the price of bitcoin.

YOU CAN NOT HAVE FREEDOM WITHOUT FREE SPEECH....    If the people you are investing with are censoring, and preventing you from getting information they do not like, you should RUN AWAY.   Honest money and investments is not afraid of free speech and truth.

It has been a great 10 years for bitcointalk. I may not be a part of this forum from the very beginning, I am really glad that I have been a part of this. I've learned a lot especially when I'm still starting at cryptocurrency, thanks to this forum.  As well as discovering new things... I hope for more years to come for bitcointalk and more members to come too.

I haven't been a member of bitcointalk for all that long, but I'm glad I am and I'm very happy the forum exists.  It would be extremely hard to form and maintain a community based on a form of magic internet money if there wasn't a site where people could gather and exchange ideas.

The other thing I'm grateful for is that there is a *lot* of freedom here in terms of what members can write.  I have seen cries of 'censorship!!' before, but there really isn't a lot of that going on.  Bitcointalk wouldn't be half as attractive to a lot of members if controversial ideas were stifled or even foul language.  The moderators have a tough job to begin with, but they don't overdo it when it comes to deleting posts.  Mostly what they delete are very low value ones.

So happy anniversary, bitcointalk!  Glad to be here.

I think also a lot of the early ones were really really nice, real and genuine people. I still see many of them around and I'm really glad to say I've actually made friends here, as well as met some in real life.

It's a small part of my life, but a mainstay and an important one.

Can't believe I'm saying it but feel quite good to be part of this big thing.

P.S. guys: theymos opened a new post in Meta! https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/the-bitcoin-forum-is-10-years-old-5203697

Its in wikipedia, not all forums are in wikipedia though so this forum a part of great history of revolutionary software. Good to be part of this forum for quite awhile. Happy 10TH anniversary Bitcointalk.org. There are several crypto forums competing this one but there is nothing like bitcointalk were the satoshi took part on the discussions.

Congratulations Bitcointalk

Bitcoin talk forum is the forum for bitcoin courses and so long as bitcoin exist bitcoin talk forum will also exist.
I don't see the forum going anywhere but rather more people will get onboard

Wow, how this place has grown from a little forum with only a few active people (mostly hardcore anarchist types) to the most diverse bunch of

people that I have even seen on one forum. Having Satoshi Nakamoto's original posts on this forum is precious and no other forum can brag about

that.  

Now you look at this forum and how it contributes to spreading massive amounts of information and even some bitcoins and you have to be proud of

this accomplishment.                                 Happy Birthday Bitcointalk.org, my home away from home.

Oh lol, bitcoin is getting old. Happy birthday to the huge bitcoin forum and hope that bitcoin will stay for a long time in the future so we could use it till we die. I hope as well that bitcoin's price to go up and reach the limits as soon as possible and also it should be spread to the whole world and i hope that a lot of people will start to use it in their daily life.

all those who have been and have been part of the forum certainly feel happy because the age of this forum is already a decade, hoping it will be even longer. I will always be happy in the forum because this forum provides knowledge and good results. happy birthday to a decade of bitcointalk

The best thing that ever happen to my cryptocurrency life is discovering bitcointalk forum, whenever I am login here, I see myself working in a multinational companies and interacting with experts from various background. Thanks to the management of this forum.

I was a professional Bitcoin miner during the first years of this forum. At that time, it was difficult to start mining, I didn't know how to start, here I was helped and I helped others. Although I am now almost no longer involved in bitcoin mining, the time spent with this forum is meaningful. Congratulations, 10-year-old bitcointalk forum!

Satoshi is a great genius well I have a hunch that he is not just one person it could be a group of people or an institution however a big 10years anniversary to everyone in the forum

I still can't imagine that Bitcointalk has gone this far. It has been through a lot for ten years and it even changed the lives of many participants here. Most of us have learned everything in trading and investing in this forum. Bitcointalk also played a vital role in the development of altcoins through promotions here. It was easy for most projects to attract great investors on this forum through signature campaigns. I'm sure that good things are yet to come. It's just another beginning for most of us and Bitcointalk.

I wanna congratulate all participants in the forum for 10th anniversary of Bitcointalk! I'm glad that I'm exactly here and Bitcoin is still alive.

Did you know it wasn't originally called Bitcointalk?  Learn more about the history of the name change by reading the discussions that drove it: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bct-fact-bitcointalk-was-originally-on-bitcoinorg-but-drama-5203621

Yeah!!!!
Hoping for another decade here in this forum to learn more.
Also, I have this high hopes of users here beginning to learn bitcoin first instead of just directly entering just for the altcoin which they are supporting.
The web name already tells what it is all about.
Let us support bitcoin until it is nourish and bloom even in the people at rural places.
They should really learn it, let us reach out to them.

Happy 10th Birthday to this forum. I am glad to be a part of it.

True, this forum changed so many lives. It gives an opportunity for people who have access to the internet. It teaches about cryptocurrency and blockchain technology, so much to learn here.

BTW we have an art contest in connection with this event.
