According to this site: http://www.worthofweb.com/website-value/bitcointalk.org/ bitcointalk is worth 24 million dollars.

Here are some stats, from that site:
Potential revenue per day:
$ 3,780 / day
Potential revenue per month:
$ 113,400 / month
Potential revenue per year:
$ 1,360,800 / year
I don't really trust that website, how do they gather the number of revenue of this makes Grin
If im not wrong this forum lives from it's advertising, and you know how expensive it was

I don't think Theymos would sell this forum, he has more than money in this forum that can't be replaced Wink
But, I will offer Theymos a retirement at a villa in mountain away from the city where He can breath all the fresh air he wants to in exchange for this forum

... and look a look at how it's grown, especially in the past couple of years. I think it's safe to say the site income has grown exponentially in the past couple of years along with the influx of new users, and the increased popularity of bitcoin in general.

Lol, where are you getting this? Because every metric suggests otherwise, as in down ~50% over the past 2 years.
The site has grown a lot in the past couple of years, there are a lot more users and a lot more site activity as well. Same with bitcoin in general, there are a lot more people interested in it than a couple years ago.

So I think it's safe to assume that if you're planning on advertising on Bitcointalk, it'll cost quite a bit more than it did a couple of years ago due to how much more traffic the site gets, since your ad would be getting many more impressions.

It's hard to put a price point on a site that's only gonna grow.
If I was gonna buy it, I think I'd have to offer like 3k bitcoin for him to even consider it.
But that's just a guess..

And Thermos pulls in ~14 BTC, and spends ~20 BTC on teh all-pro moderation. In the red. Over $115k short of projected potential.

A flat million dollars for it... Would you like to have it @theymos? Grin But yeah, I'll have to first sell off my property for that. Tongue

BTW, as far as I can guess, he won't even accept the offer of 2 million dollars right now. He'd take even more than that.
I wish I could buy this forum but I dont think theymos would sell it.Anyway hypothetically speaking if I had to make an offer to theymos,I would offer him amount equal to 10 years of forum revenue
Even that might not be a good deal for theymos.. This forum has only been around for about 7 years, and look a look at how it's grown, especially in the past couple of years. I think it's safe to say the site income has grown exponentially in the past couple of years along with the influx of new users, and the increased popularity of bitcoin in general.

Around 20btc a month goes to the staff though so take that into consideration.

So 20BTC/mo + server costs.
But some super lucrative assets, too:
-$2.5 million invested in new forum software, which will be finished sometime last year.
-A friendly, cohesive community of Shocked *

So, say ...what, like, $75 million US?
*lol

Thanks for the hilarious info. Among how many of u that gets distributed and does everyone get same ?

Around 30 moderators and everyone gets different depending on your mod level (Admin, Global, patroller etc) and how many reports you handle (among other things).

The price will always depend to the owner. and if I own this forum, I've price it about $5million take it or leave it. The buyer can simply make hypes and earn thru it actually  Grin he' be one of those big whales that can certainly influence people to sell their coins of not which is priceless.

Although those big figures some people mentioned seem fair for me, there's a huge risk in buying a site like this in this moment, Bitcoin is clearly at a crossroad and one could argue that it's reaching its peak. On the other hand we know it's resilient and it can survive another "death". With the halving incoming I think it's not very wise to invest millions of dollars into a highly volatile business that is having a war at its center but that's just me.

The bottom line is, to make an offer one must know what's the yearly income/profit from the site, with proofs and all ins and outs. After that it's just a matter of calculating the ROI and take the risk.

Impossible to make an offer without knowing what he actually makes with this forum.
Last week he made 14.2 BTC.

I think the price of this site depends on the unique visitors and daily users visit this website for signature campaign and knowledge about bitcoin.
Once similar or more good looking and feature website comes then this website could be replaced although the domain name would still be much worth lakh's.
