Topic: How Many Years on Bitcointalk? Take the Poll! - page 6. (Read 1068 times)

It actually opened to the public in 2009.

November 22 of 2009 to be more precise. Almost 10 years.

I joined almost 3 years ago. I found out about this thread thru my brother who was also on this forum. This is where I gathered info about cryprocurrency and soo  found out, bounties, airdrops, ICOs and a lot more. This forum had helped me a lot. Let's see if we can dig when was this forum created since I my self has no idea too.

Im way bit late here on crypto for around 2015. I've been dragged out into this crypto word because of HYIPs/Ponzi things.



Estimated Value:   $ 5,454,324.96    
Theymos loves this forum very much (in behalf of satoshi)

less than 1 year since I joined the bitcointalk forum, here I am very happy and get some useful knowledge about the world of cryptocurrency

Well. It seems that yesterday was my 6th Year Anniversary on www.bitcointalk.org. April 13th, 2013 was the day I tripped over bitcoin
after doing a Google Search. By the end of the week, I was $8.3k in. (Butterfly Labs, one of the few who did as a dumb newbie a year or so later
get my refund...barely....a week later the SEC raided BFL...damn I was dumb)

I digress. But if only I knew what I knew then, etc thus my current efforts to 'attic mine' crap I would otherwise die with. So selling the crap out of my attic and put into
BTC and crypto. Hoping for 1 more at least 7x price increase. Have to have some skills after 6 years into BTC and a guy can hope. Keeps at least some 'dust' coming in.

Anyway, just made a quick poll. I am unsure when www.bitcointalk.org even 'launched' (if anyone knows?)

So the poll may not go back far enough. Let me know the day and year www.bitcointalk.org launched and I will 'tweak' the poll.

Take the poll and post below. Also, post on how you found out about BTC and any NEWB stories and also how you found www.bitcointalk.org below

Thus this thread should make a 'cringe-worthy' read of NEWB's falling into the crypto universe. I know that my foray into BTC was less than sophisticated.

Again, at least take the poll.

thanks

edit: found this https://www.freevaluator.com/ seems www.bitcointalk.org is worth a bit of $$$. Says the site has been around 8 years.
So it was started in 2011.

Damn, that is a lot of $$$ for a domain name!


edit #2

Seems the www.bitcointalk.org forum was started in November 22nd, 2009. I will fix the poll.
