A painful fact is many VIP/ Donator member accounts got hacked, changed hands, turned to scammers or left the forum.

This is indeed sad. If a hacker successfully claim a VIP/Donator account, it will be disastrous because it will be easier to scam with it. It is understandable that some left the forum and it could also be that some has kicked the bucket.

but you also have to take into account the time in which these donations happened - which was mostly at a time when the price of BTC was very low, and people were mining with their computers and for each block received as much as 50 BTC reward.

I understand this. But It will be nice to note that even if BTC does not worth much then, it is only those who has the giving mind that donated. If it was easy, everyone would have donated.

As a Donator I can tell you that we have our own exclusive section of the forum (which controversially staff members are also able to participate in) and there are a few Donators such as myself that occasionally post things in there. A quick glance at that section looks like TradeFortress was that last VIP to post anything in there.

Good to read from you and to also know that there is a section of the forum only available to donators and staff. I guess the lasts post there would be somewhere 2021 Grin

. Thanks for your contribution and retained passion in bitcoin and the forum at large .

Perhaps it would be better to say that they deserve thanks, but you also have to take into account the time in which these donations happened - which was mostly at a time when the price of BTC was very low, and people were mining with their computers and for each block received as much as 50 BTC reward.

Without a doubt, they deserve all the thanks, even if they are no longer active on the forum, or their accounts have disappeared.

Because thanks to these donors, it is possible today for the forum to be very active and with sufficient funds to remain that way for many years. Therefore, all of us today must remain grateful to these people, who at the time thought they gave little, but ended up being a lot.

Get a list of those members that was given by LoyceV.

Wow! There are a whole lot of them from that data. I never knew so many people turned out to ensure the forum got funds for its upkeep back then by donating to its cause. It's really sad that most of those members aren't active any more or their accounts exchanged hands. Perhaps a greater number of them moved on to better things that caught their fancies once Bitcoin became popular. Anyway, let me quickly add that those coins were donated at a time Bitcoin wasn't that valuable. I'm sure it would be different given the same scenario now.

Kudos to those who donated. You guys are the rare gems, despite how it turned out later.

As you've already been shared a thread link to their list, we must not forget that back then, bitcoin is never what it has turned to be now and those people did so out of their generosity mind to support the community which is part of what we are all having it's benefits today, am sure that most of these donators are not active as before while few among them were still very active, i wonder what someone like me and you could offer if there should be another secon donation.

Let forget about whatever the price of Bitcoin was at the time of that donation. Is only some one with a strong heart that can donate and all those donators are good examples of someone with such heart. Yes, some people can not give out something even when they can not longer use it. They really deserve some accolades for exhibiting that generosity. Hardly to reach ⅓ of that donation if another donation is to be conducted now. It's sad that most of them are not longer here with us again.

I would really like to know and even see how they are holding up knowing that they were very early adopters back then and how they are doing now. There could be something influential and interesting about how they have managed to become early adopters and donate that amount. It seems like a great conversation with them. Any list with that in mind?

I learnt that there was a time forum members donated to the forum which fetched them the titles of donator for 10 BTC donors and VIP for 50 BTC donors.
My question is; are there 50 BTC donors who are still in the forum till date. They deserve respect.
I have seen Ognaty and he donated 10 BTC and still in the forum till today, Kudos to him. I want to know if 50 BTC donors are still here.

I was going through https://bitcointalk.org/donate.html just last week, and the donor remark was what caught my attention and guess the username I first rushed to check. It was that of OgNasty. I first checked it at the 50 BTC list before seeing it at the 10 BTC.

This guy is worthy more as he is probably the only one among the entire donors who is still active, or should I say most active. He didn't just commit his assets but also his efforts. Kudus!

And if you really want to know the active ones, it's simple, just search them name by name to know their last logins and forum contributions.

Given that you posted a link to the list of donors and that you have a tool like BPIP you only need a little time and you can check for each donor when he was last active.

It's my old thread, not updated recent years but you will get some information like their new usernames/ display names that are different than initial usernames.
