Bitcoins and its related discussions is the subject matter and major objective why this forum was first created after bitcoins from my observation, but considering the current dump in bitcoin, assuming that the prices never goes up and bitcoin ceases to exist or looses value completely, will this forum continue to function?
I dont think it will be affected. Forum existed and lively here even the bitcoin price is way too low than this current market. The only difference is the more people come here asking why price is going down then thats the beauty of forum since we can speculate and discuss whats possible happening in the bitcoin and crypto space. Even forum ads werent gonna be affected for sure as I believe the payment here is bitcoin.

Im thinking OP is worried of it as possible closure or something right? But its not possible to be affected by this crash.

No and I do not think that there is a correlation between the price of BTC and the existence of this forum.

Remember that this forum was created in order to be the main repository of information about several and tons of discussion about CRYPTOCURRENCIES. Though bitcoin may be the main discussion, there are still altcoins that are being actively discussed under this section. In addition, the price of BTC dropping is an excellent discussion which necessarily has to be discussed and talked about given this very bearish market.

Investors and HODLers would definitely want to hear smart opinions of cryptocurrencies veterans and analyst in the market. Given by these facts, I really doubt that the forum's existence is a threat given the significant drop of BTC's price in the market.

Bitcoin forum will still exist even if the Bitcoin price crash it's always happened after 1 or 2 years after blockhalving.

Like before, when people said Bitcoin was dead but still the forum still exists not so active unlike when the Bitcoin is in demand(Bull market) there are many active new users joining here on the forum.

If maybe never goes up and becomes no value just like you said maybe the forum will not continue to exist but still it depends on Theymos. If it happens I think there are still many believers who will request to continue this forum and support theymos by donating just to continue the existence of this forum for future plans/development.

Lightning network is good with small amount of BTC
Bitcoin was designed in a way its extinction will be very not likely possible. There is nothing impossible but bitcoin extinction is one among possibilities that may never occur.

If this bitcoin cease to exist, probably all cryptocurrencies will no more be existing, then what remains? Nothing. Because of that, this forum may cease to continue to be existing. If still existing, there would be a lot of changes.

฿itcoin for all, All for ฿itcoin.
You do realize that this forum contains discussions that are not only about Bitcoin...right?

But that's not the point of my reply, my point is Bitcoin has been announced dead hundreds of times, but it just keeps getting stronger and stronger with time

Here is your place to start from

I think the forum and bitcoin were both started as hobbyistic endeavours so the forum will live on as well as bitcoin will if something catastrophic were to happen to the price of the crypto market.

It seemed to have a stronger, perhaps smaller community when I joined here back when bitcoin was vauled at around $200. Everything seemed quite small back then though.

The forum itself probably costs as much to run as it receives in views/hits - of fewer people access the site it'll probably be a lot easier and cheaper to run. If the forum does disappear, there are a few user generated sites that store informstion for it and archive sites that used to parse the whole forum on a daily basis (I think it's done once a month now - on archive.org - but I've not checked recently).
