I never come across Cryptotalks before, it’s just recently I know about the forum, but I knew about Altcoinstalks for long during bounty days, but the two forums are not as active as Bitcointalk forum and many forum users are not talking about the forum that much maybe because of their in activity and low quality posts been posts there.
But recently, Bitcoin talks forum users have started teleporting their accounts into Altcoinstalks forum, the forum will perhaps become more active and gain more quality contents and posts.
You are not alone here. Even I didn't knew that there was a forum called "Cryptotalks". All I knew was Bitcointalk and altcointalk.But recently, Bitcoin talks forum users have started teleporting their accounts into Altcoinstalks forum, the forum will perhaps become more active and gain more quality contents and posts.
And the altcointalk administrator are taking this as an opportunity to increase their site traffic. we have a large numbers to campaign participant who teleported their account to altcointalk. But I highly doubt it won't last long. The moment mixers stop their campaign, activity will decrease. But do you think altcointalk will gain quality content or post? I fear some (low rank) may spam or abuse because I don't think altcointalk is highly maintained as bitcointalk in term of fighting spams.

Hello @everyone!
I'm very curious for your reasons, why you've signed up at Bitcointalk, created an Account here and are an active member of Bitcointalk by writing content regularly.

I actually do not have any special reasons why I signed up on bitcointalk. Infact if it were for me, I wouldn't have discovered this forum, rather I would rather be an admin of other groups or non crypto related forums. It was a brother that introduced me to this forum and from that very day I was introduced, I haven't regretted it.
Cryptotalk
Cryptotalk was a very active forum where many members made contributions but most of it has been spam, probably due to Cryptotalk incentivizing posts. Last year, posts stopped to be incentivized and suddenly, no one wrote posts anymore. I just wondered why my new topics didn’t get any replies anymore.
Cryptotalk is dead now.
Even when it was active, most replies were of very low quality. Very disappointing.

Even up till I read this your post, I haven't known that there's a forum called cryptotalks. Although, I have heard of a forum where people ask questions and attach some cents to the question which is given to anyone who provides the most appropriate answer to the question. I don't think it is cryptotalks.
Altcoinstalks
Altcoinstalks is very different from Cryptotalk as it's an independent forum, similar like Bitcointalk. I have presented quite a few researches on Altcoinstalk, but discussions haven’t been very insightful but more insightful compared to Cryptotalk, of course. Biggest disadvantage from Altcoinstalks: Activity has been very low and for many topics only few replies have been left.
Very big issue of Altcoinstalk as well: it is focused on Altcoins and many useless Altcoins such like Tron or Ripple are shilled. Criticism of such coins is bashed.
Not a good showing to push such fraudulent coins.

I have known Altcoinstalks since 2021. Few months after I signed up to bitcointalk, I asked people if there is an alternative forum where such activities in BTT is replicated. I was pointed to Altcoinstalks and I used it for just few days and left there because of low activity in the forum. Right now things have changed for Altcoinstalks. It is getting more visitors daily.

I can't actually say why but I could say how. Bitcointalk was introduced to me by someone and I registered. At first I didn't find it any interesting so I left it. Not using it for a year (I think). Later thought of giving it another try. As time went by I got interested. I started to read and read, went from one thread to another, board to board, post to post and here I was having Bitcointalk as my daily life. I wouldn't exactly say daily life but it became something that I now use on a regular basis.

In Bitcointalk's latest Mixer ban, Altcoinstalks made an appearance because many Mixer campaigns will be on Altcointalks now.
I'm not active on Altcoinstalks currently because many topics are much more interesting on Bitcointalk but checking out Altcoinstalks now might result in better discussions on Altcoinstalks, when more members are active:

It is indeed a forum of vast resourceful materials, as this is the only forum you could find a trace of the good works of "Satoshi Nakamoto".
Hello, broI know, yes. Satoshi was active on Bitcointalk and he announced Bitcoin here.
Even early development was done here, it is really impressive and I agree to you.
Satoshi Nakamoto is a really unique point for Bitcointalk.

Take a look at this thread: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/interviews-with-bitcointalk-members-5262967, it'll definitely answer your questions as well as learn something gold from other people.
HOLY SHIT. I absolutely do not remember writing all of that. I couldn't have been in a blackout at the time, so it's freaking me out seeing all of that.But anyway, at least I don't have to write the answer to OP's question again since I just linked to everything you'd ever want to know about how I found the forum.

Cryptotalk was a joke, by the way. Right from the beginning. When Yobit announces they have a new forum and are recruiting people from bitcointalk to get paid to post in it, the only possible outcome is an unnecessary forum filled with the bottom-feeders from another one (bitcointalk). There was so much plagiarism it was ridiculous, and I'd like to forget it ever existed eventually.

I’m looking forward for your responses.
First of all, I wish to welcome you to Bitcointalk, the official forum of Bitcoin and the bedrock of the digital currency we all know today as crypto. It is indeed a forum of vast resourceful materials, as this is the only forum you could find a trace of the good works of "Satoshi Nakamoto".If you want to share your reasons,

or

However, I have decided to be active on this forum, so that I can learn all that is needed for me to know about Bitcoin and cryptocurrency at large so that I can be of help to myself and those that might need my services, so as to create an enabling environment for people using Bitcoin, teach more and refer more to the forum so that they can get to know more about Bitcoin too.
April 05, 2023, 02:02:51 AM
The alternative forums mentioned in OP comes nowhere near to bitcointalk in terms of sharing actual knowledge.
I created an account here to learn more about bitcoin because I knew about bitcoin in 2014 if am not wrong but not convinced to invest even a penny that you have been worth thousands now but later 2017 I realised I missed the train now I don't want to miss again so I came here and learnt what is money which I never taught in all of my schooling period then I understand important of investment, compounding and everything make sense now.

I have encountered them too few years ago but there was this stranger I met online who told me that if I wanted to learn not only bitcoin but other cryptocurrencies as well, I should focus here in bitcointalk. After I said that there were similar forums too that provides information, he told me that those information aren't that much different here and some infos there are probably not true since most the topics there are just spams and no real credibility behind even if they are being moderated. There is also a similar forum like bitcointalk but less information and more highly you'd get scammed, that is bitcoingarden. I know that there are still useful information there but in terms of reputation I don't think there is any other forum out there that can compare here.
April 04, 2023, 09:08:29 AM
I can't guess exact place where similar topic have been raised but I know something like this have existed before.
If you must know, here is the origin of bitcoin discussion a place where all bitcoin related issues are being handled. As a matter fact here is a place that educates people more about bitcoin than any other websites that tends to convey bitcoin and cryptocurrency information today. Usually here is like home for me were I face and focused all spare time to read and replies some comments to renew my mind about bitcoin latest happenings compared to other social media out there.

If you want to share your reasons,
- why your decision to be active here was in favor of Bitcointalk
or
- how you detected Bitcointalk,
I will eliminate the "or" and write on both. Let me start with your second question. I stumbled on this forum by chance. That was how I "detected it". I was ferociously looking for sites that could teach me what Bitcoin was all about and that was in 2017. My search on Google brought me to this forum. I observed it awhile and in less than two weeks I made my conclusion and registered on it.- why your decision to be active here was in favor of Bitcointalk
or
- how you detected Bitcointalk,
My decision to remain active here, besides the monetary gain, is simply because there are loads of insights on knowledge one gets for free here. Most crypto fora are full of spam and shitposts. It's discouraging posting there, to say the least. I had accounts in a few of them but I stopped posting there after awhile. There was one – Moonforum (or so) – that would've served as a strong competition for Bitcointalk. Sadly, that forum didn't last before it went under and shutdown.

I think most of us were trying to learn more about this new technology, some got trapped in pay to post activities and some learned how to use this forum to actually learn something useful.
I'm sorry but I am reminded of a TV contest, the question was: Capital of Thailand and the options were:
A: Bangkok, B: Bangpussy, C: Bangtits, D: Bangdick. Prize was massive!😂 I'd go for b and c but the answer is a.

Got some freelance work, that 'work' was apparently bounty found here. Why get work from middleman when you could sign up here and get'em directly. So here we are.
Point to be noted, I already had an account here prior to above happening, it was just random forum registration back then but it was hacked in 2013 (not sure). It didn't have much activity, with little efforts tried to recover it but didn't work, so gave up without much attachment

Cryptotalk - I know this forum is affiliated with Yobit exchange we know this is a shady exchange and there have been lots of complaints on here how they have scammed their victims so much.
Whereas with the Cryptotalk forum now it has become quiet because there is no payment for each post that I know.
Altcoinstalk - Too many unsightly ads and some of the topics here are about altcoins because I don't like unless the bitcointalk is more relevant, I don't know how much more people are active on this forum unless they have come back on the bitcointalk forum which is wider and more informative.
You can see in my interview where I have written clearly regarding the beginning of bitcointalk and of course this is my experience being long and ending until now in this forum it has become an active routine to continue exploring it, because I have seen many benefits in terms of various content needed related to bitcoin or crypto etc.

Until now the Bitcointalk forum is still considered the best source of information and discussion about cryptocurrencies. Despite the weaknesses in the forums you mentioned, Bitcointalk is still a good place to gain insight into market trends, technological developments, and issues related to cryptocurrencies.
Cryptotalk has connection with Yobit, a shady exchange. Probably Yobit is not seen more international traffic, probably most people using that exchange are from Russia. Also that English section is full of spammers, maybe the Russian board too, but I do not know. The reason would be from those two.
Yes I have joined Cryptotalk, as you mentioned cryptotalk focus on promoting Yobit exchange market. However, this forum has also received criticism from many members because of several controversial rules and policies, such as access restrictions for several countries.

I came across this forum quite by accident. It so happened that I was busy on another platform, completely removed from information about Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies. Suddenly, one day, my forum stopped working; I don’t know what happened to it, and I was left without my interests. There was free time, and by the will of fate, I came across this forum. I googled it and was very surprised that I did not know about it before. After reading a few threads, I signed up here because I always think that it's better to be inside than outside if you're interested in something.
And yes, the closure of my forum and the discovery of this have affected the fact that I am no longer interested in other forums.
It happens.

If someone would have told me you started from the scratch in this forum after yours had issues I won't have believed.
In my own case, I wasn't sure such a thing do happen because of some scammers and I have concluded that any online stuff are fake, not until I was introduced to this forum and I found out that things here are different from the others I have tried, so it just happened. I'm loving it here.
