I would vote for such an addition but only if it had a moderator with very strict moderation policy. If it's going to be another Press board, then no.

No social media posts where some famous dickhead prophesies the future Bitcoin price or any other discussions about prices and spam like the date when Bitcoin will be worth $1 million. No one cares about that. If you share a tweet, you have to have your own opinion about it and you need to be able to create a meaningful conversation based on it. Not just quotes and screenshots of tweets.

Shared content should be something like future upgrades, improvements, meaningful partnerships, opinions by crypto leaders, ambassadors, etc.

So I've noticed that there's a TON of bitcoin related discussion that happens on twitter.
From what i observe is like bitcoin started from social media like the one you mentioned and others like Facebook and telegram because people at a point know bitcoin from Facebook during the time of airdrop and my own i know bitcoin from a friend who knows bitcoin very well, but social media mostly is what makes Bitcoin to be popular, i believe that without social media circulating the information of cryptocurrency Bitcoin will not be popular like the way it is

Bad idea, OP
I can imagine that board being flooded by Elon Musk tweets for obvious reasons, and I thought we were already past that dude, lol.
I usually steer clear of that site along with Facebook when it comes to crypto-related discussion.
The forum is already fine as it is and we do not need more attention from other users in other social media platform. For sure people would think of this forum anyway along with Reddit when it comes to learning/discussing more about any sorts of cryptos but not Twitter.

If you see any "notable twitter threads", it would be better to have just a single thread of that Twitter thread/topic in Bitcoin Discussion board then just cite your source of that thread/tweet instead of dedicating an entire child board for that.

It would be cool if we had a "notable twitter threads" child board so if users see something interesting, they can share it for others here.
This is not a media platform where you share threads or posts from other social platforms. There is however a press board here for "notable press hits", this is not limited to Twitter but includes top media stories from all over, but the content should be notable enough to be worth posting here.

It would also bring more attention and users to the forum itself and would help serve as an archive of sorts.

its difficult to find these threads after a couple of months have passed unless someone retweets it.
The forum does not need to attract users through content from other platforms, this is the top crypto platform and users would be drawn strictly from the discussions here.
If you find a thread on Twitter you'll want to come back to in a couple of months, bookmark it.

bitcoin talk also has a couple advantages over twitter. the forum platform is a lot better for genuine, longer & nuanced discussion when compared to something like twitter.
Then why should bitcointalk with the better content, have a board specifically for some other platform?

Why Twitter, Facebook or any other social media thread? This is not necessary. If you see any information from external source, be it Twitter, Facebook, news or from whatever external source, you can create a new thread about it if you think it can lead to constructive discussion here. It has been happening this way and we are all fine with that. Remember this is Bitcointalk, we do not need anything special for any other external sources but only Bitcointalk.org.

What about "Notable Facebook Thread", "Notable reddit thread","Notable Telegram Thread"

That's a great idea, hilariously i didn't even think about that.

I guess this will be a nice idea to implement.

By the way, if all these get implemented, the forum will look nice. It will be easier for newbies to find out everything very soon as they need to check the child board to child board to child board, again child board & again child board  Grin
