this is a great comment.

and very positive. sometimes I feel that in the Bitcoin forum, the percentage of people being negative and complaining about everything is 80%. it should be the opposite.
people trying to see the positive and work jointly on ways to make it grow

Just keep in mind that many people may have and use Bitcoin and not be a registered member of this forum. I for example joined this forum over two months after I bought my first Bitcoin.

60,000 of those are Atlas' accounts. Another 7,000 belong to goons. Subtracting scammers and their related sock puppet accounts, bitcoin has 5 legitimate users. Last year there were four, though; so at this rate it will only be about 43.5 years before there are 68,000 legitimate users.

That's actually funny.

...there was much discussion on this forum about how many bitcoin users there were, and many doubters questioned whether there were, or would ever be, more than 10K people who used or cared about bitcoin at all.

At this time, this forum alone has over 68K registered members. While that's certainly a far cry from a 'critical mass' of users, the number of people discovering Bitcoin each day is rising exponetially.
