Please quote in BTC.

1000BTC ($430,000) for now, but with modern UI that people want & more advertising, bitcointalk.org could worth up to 12500BTC ($5,375,000)
But some website (site price worth website) said bitcointalk.org had value about $300,000 to $1,200,000.
BTW, this website generates that much amount of money in 1 year(by selling ad spaces). Don't you think 1000BTC would be too low for that much earning, you cannot expect ROI withing an year.
I would have paid up to 5000BTC for the forum(only if I had them).
In the world of internet, no one knows what is awaiting after one year.

Theymos can't sell bitcointalk.org as the domain is held by Sirius.
Nopes. It is now jointly held by Cobra & Theymos.
How can domain be jointly held? and how do you know who really own this domain when whois privacy for it is on

I stand corrected! Maybe their registrar accepts multi-sig verification of requests for changes to the domain ownership etc. Certainly if they formed a company for the administration of the domain/forum, the domain would have been transferred to that company.

Well, u can claim everyone is lying. But, I dont see why would anyone lie without any incentive ?

Hence, the inference is obvious.
This is some good and important reference and so is worth quoting Smiley
In case you think the buyer will also get the donations then the assumption is wrong because there is no fool to donate 5k $ or 20k $ to some forum.It was done when the price was significantly low.The site is not worth that much.

I would have to put the value of Bitcointalk at around 37,500 BTC at this time.  There is a lot more potential for the site and I do not think it is being used to its full potential.  There are parts of Bitcoin that I think need corrected, but it is not my place to say.
You are joking.  I have a friend who recently sold her pharmacy for around USD$500,000 and it is in a pretty affluent section of an affluent state with good cash flow and no debt.  I have a hard time believing that this website would be worth $17,000,000 or anywhere close to that.  If Theymos got that as an offer he should take it and never look back.

I think if site was for sale right now there will be investors who would pay 1 or 2 millions (2k-4k in Bitcoin)right  away without bargain.
It is safe to assume that certain bitcoin entrepreneurs like Roger Ver would buy it for even more. I am not here to comment on legal status of the domain as I don't care.

This place is crowded with scammers and shady people.
I really don't think it is even close to being worth as much as you guys suspect it is.

The only real revenue it produces is through ads from dubious gambling site operators.

If that were true, then they never sold Whatsapp to Facebook. In our industry Jed Mccaleb would not have sold Mt. Gox to Mark Karpeles.

I can only pay 0.2 btc not because I estimate bitcointalk value at that but because I dont have much btc than this at the moment so it is useless to offer what you dont have Cheesy

Bitcointalk is priceless, however I think people would pay upwards of 1500BTC for it.

Doubt Theymos would ever sell it though, this site is where Bitcoin was born; nobody would sell it if they owned it. I also don't think Theymos would ever have to sell it, he has a LOT of Bitcoin and is very wealthy.
Bitcoin was not born on bitcointalk. It was first announce on mailing list. The first forum was on sourceforge. Then it was at forum.bitcoin.org. Then it came to its current domain. Theymos was not the original owner of it. He was given the charge and he built it to its current form.
