Topic: How much percentage of the Bitcoin users use Bitcointalk.org ? - page 2. (Read 1329 times)
You can subtract 30% for all the sock puppet and shill accounts and then you will be very close to your estimate. ^smile^ If you do not use Bitcoin, what would you be doing here? This forum is meant for the discussion of primarily Bitcoin and other Alt coins in the Crypto currency environment. You cannot take the whole membership statistic as a guideline, because most of those accounts are idle for many years already. I would like to see one of the moderators posting the Google Analytical stats for Bitcointalk, just to see how many of the current hits are frequent visitors. Anyone?
i think most of the users get to know about bitcoin starting with faucets.They only want some money online not interested in bitcoins particularily..So i think number would be less approx 50-55% i would say or may be less...
I highly highly doubt 70% of the people using bitcoin use bitcointalk.org. There are tons of other forums in other languages where people wouldn't think of bitcointalk.org as the first website to go to
There are a lot of bitcoin forums other than this bitcointalk and also it is popular on Reddit etc. So i think only 50% people who are involved in bitcoins are using this forum.
Also there are business man around the world who invest in bitcoins and never have time to visit any such forums etc.
I dont think that most of the bitcoin users are using bitcointalk.org or they didnt even know about it . So you can't be sure that it is around 70% of bitcoin users are using and surfing on this forum . Well to make it sure there should be a survey or statistic outside this forum and since the database of this forum cannot be accurate because most members here are using multiple accounts . Maybe some bitcoin users knows about this forum but they didnt use it and some already has a lot of bitcoin but didnt know about bitcointalk .

I think nearly 70% of the people who are using bitcoin in the world are surfing this forum 
but all of this need and statistic data to make a calculation of the percentage of people or users using bitcoin talk. but it's not many, because maybe just like this example you choose the ten people for random in the community and you can asking into personal about bitcoin, i think only 2 or 3 from people know about bitcoin.

I think it is in around 10% of bitcoin users are using bitcointalk.org but anyway it is just a mere speculation. Given the fact that we do not have a factual statistics or data of how many bitcoin users are there around the globe and we also dont have the exact numbers of bitcoin users to bitcointalk.org. If we have those datas we can compare and we can compute the exact or more accurate statistics and average.

Haha yeah i agree with you, since the creation of bitcoin, followed by bitcoin talk. That where bitcointalk that causes rapid growth of bitcoin. Because of this forum was a lot of people who are interested in using bitcoin.
Thank you 
I think in developing countries like Indonesia and Philllippines, the figure must be more than 90%.
A lot of people have been introduced to faucets through Bitcointalk.org

In my opinion it depends on how people are introduced to Bitcoin. When I was first introduced, I was under the impression that Bitcoin was the currency of the criminals who were trying to buy in the black market. It was not until I actually did some research did I realize that what I thought was not the case. I did a search and Bitcoin talk was the first option when I searched Bitcoin Forum. I just wanted to learn. There are alot of new people who do exactly what I did. So I would have to think that the % of users is actually more than 70%, maybe around 85% 
That's a very interesting question. At first thought, I almost agreed on a number around 70% as well. On second thought however I think that this number might be greatly exaggerated. The reason is that a personal estimation is often not based on a random sample of Bitcoin users. Instead it is based on a convenience sample based on the websites visited. There is no assurance that the specific pattern of participation in the Bitcoin sphere of the estimator is representative for the average Bitcoin user.
You have to consider that with the ongoing expansion of Bitcoin usage there has been frequent and diverse media reporting that reached a huge audience. Only very few of these media reports mentioned Bitcointalk. So there can be a large number of Bitcoin users that never even became aware of the existence of this forum. Not mentioning professional investors and financial advisers that feel too self-important to register at a public forum...
My personal estimation for today is 20-30%. In the very early days of Bitcoin more than 90% of Bitcoin users were also likely users of Bitcointalk simply due to the fact that Bitcointalk evolved from the development community around Satoshi himself. But those days are over...
ya.ya.yo!

Its difficult to calculate the exact percentage of users spending time here, but I am sure each an every individual who is aware about bitcoin will be a part of this forum.
