babo, help many newbie in italian forum

the famous foxpup i think is the first woman in this forum

-When o_e_l_e_o announced about his departure from the forum, it created serious emotions that day in the forum. That is to show how important he is to the forum. Wherever he is now, i regard him as the hero of good.

-JayJuanGee is full of wisdom and it can be seen from his style of posting which defers from any other person in the forum.
-Philipma1957 is old but Gold because even at his age he still navigates all arena of the forum with great wisdom and understanding.
-Fillipone is also one important member of the forum who is after the growth of the forum by helping both newbies and low ranks through his post review for merit thread. It's not easy going through different post to give merits to quality posts.

-DannyHamilton is a knowledgeable user who knows deep about bitcoin even though he contributes most in the technical discussion boards.

-Bitcoin Pizza Day contest is a very significant event to all bitcoiners

-Best Change signature campaign because after it ended, the forum became cold for sometime because the campaign had reputable members of the forum.

-Igebotz became the moderator of Naija Local Board, i think that was surprise package to the Nigerian community by Theymos.

-PowerGlove has been of notable help to the forum, in coding and bringing forth other helpful ideas to the community.

-Jayce have been a great designer to the forum as the feedbacks from campaign managers and other forum members can attest to that effect.
-1Dq is also a great Artist as he has done a lot of beautiful art works for the forum

-Charles-Tim has been a great poster in the Nigerian Local Board.
-CryptopreneurBrainboss is a great asset to the Nigerian Local Board.
-Igebotz is the moderator of the Nigerian Local Board and his moderation is top notch

-Foxpup is known for her contribution to the forum and has won Miss Bitcointalk from 2021-2023, i think no one deserves it this time other than her again.
-SmartGold01 has been very up and doing both in local and general discussion of the forum, she also deserves the award.

Rest in peace brothers. There are many, memory disappears as we become old.

Take out these two, Bitcointalk is no more.

None of these users need any introduction.

OgNasty FU for changing the currency symbol, now we need more pushups 😂. $100k was truly amazing to experience.

Sportsbet's BSFL, EPL, NFL, EFL, F1, Serie A, Laliga, Esports. You name it. jeremypwr needs to update the thread regularly.
BetFury amazed me with their recent promotions. I can sense amazing things are coming from them.
Stake's contribution in the forum with their signature campaign is bigger than anyone else since many years.


holydarkness never rests. I hope he continues his selfless contribution for many years.
shasan for running the lending service as a charity.
DdmrDdmr for his merit dashboard.

Is there anyone who can challenge Jayce? No one so far.

Didn’t get to know o_e_l_e_o better but with the little I got to know before he  left, he deserves it
theymos has  dedicated a lot of years to the forum and he deserves this as well


This guys are the true  definition of Ninjas , I literally put on my glasses to carefully read JJG posts  , not a post goes by without me tapping from his wisdom..


These three have always been up to the task when it comes to explaining. They’ve always explained Bitcoin-related concepts especially the technicals that I don’t seem to understand. All I do is ask for their assistance, and they always turn up.


Hamphuz is a trustworthy campaign manager who is devoted to his Campaign managements and one of his habit to  devotion is early payment to his workers, he doses not joke  with this..

Charles Tim is always everywhere on our LB Naija , contributing to the local board almost every seconds
Amphenomenon picked up our LB chart /report.
CryptopreneurBrainboss contributes positively to the LB , helping newbies aswell..


Etranger is a strong woman who is always ready to help wherever she's needed

mikeywith is allways there if someone got a question in the mining section. He is respectfull helping new members, even when you think, he must be tired of writing this and that for the 1000th time,
and why could they not read the old posts.

Lafu is continously fighting against fraud and scams for years, a real benefit for all members.

theymos, for his 1 April Fool events, it is a highlight every year.

Philipma1957, he is a helpfull and a active member of the english mining section and his words got weight.

no AI was involved in writing, so gramar may be not the best

RESERVED - to be updated

[1] theymos I'm not sure it needs explaining but I believe he embodies a true cypherpunk spirit in my mind, and I believe he understands the true purpose of Bitcoin.
[2] o_e_l_e_o also embodied a cypherpunk spirit and he has left a giant mark on the forum and touched many people, he should be up here.
[3] Phinnaeus Gage was one of my heros from the past and was dedicated to bitcoin and this community for many years, I really miss reading his posts and interacting with him.

[1] suchmoon embodies what I would see as trust & wisdom on the forum, he's shown his wisdom publicly and privately and I completely trust him.
[2] LoyceV is all over the place, providing concise replies that get straight to good points, offering advice, and continually keeping his stat threads updated to help others, I couldn't imagine what the forum would be like without him.
[3] It's hard to imagine not seeing the responses from The Sceptical Chymist on the forum, many times I read a topic and think of responding, only to find that he's generally already said what I was thinking. I still see his previous alias (which I won't mention) when reading his posts, and more times than not, I end up agreeing with him.

[1][2] These two exude what a BTC geek is, they know their stuff, and they help people out, just check out their posts.

[1] The 4th halving marks a notable event which, one way or the other, has impacted crypto enthusiasts around the world.
[2] Bitcoin broke 100K USD in 2024, which overall marked a pretty significant event in the crypto community.
[3] I don't get to participate in many events but the pumpkin carving contest was one of my favorites, seeing some of the cool stuff created, and Halloween being my 2nd favorite holiday, this pops in my head.

[1] Created by 1Dq, the metaverse collective group effort was an interesting and cool way to depict the forum and included several areas of the forum in it. Overall, the effort put in was impressive and a large undertaking by 1Dq and he should be commended.
[2] The Halvening cards featuring bitcointalk users had a big impact on me personally. It is the first product I've created of its kind and enabled me to interact with a cool group of people in the collectibles area that I had not been very familiar with previously. While I don't expect to win any awards here, it was a lengthy process to get there and I'm happy the way they turned out, and excited to continue them (and more) in the future.
[3] Created by user Tyke, the Bitcoin history book is a cool project that was published last year. I haven't read through it all yet, but it looks to have been done well and obviously includes many references to the forum. Another large undertaking that I think should be commended.

[1] PowerGlove has continued his legacy throughout 2024 both publicly and privately and has become a good friend, I'm looking forward to another great year.
[2] In the past I've had to skip over most of what JJG posts, but as I've found out throughout the past year, once you get through some of the elaboration and abrasiveness, he can sometimes make worthwhile points. Plus, being one of the only active neutral/objective merit sources I think we have, he deserves an award.

[1] Amongst other positive contributions in the scam and spam busting arena, nutildah is doing his best to fight AI at a time when imo the forum really needs it.
[2] Outside of the other stuff he engages in on the forum, Cyrus has always appeared to me as one of the more objective and fair mods, who continually works to handle user reports and clean up the forum, just as important, he seems willing to answer questions when discrepencies arise.

[1] Between orange pills, new coins, cool art, raw transactions, and free raffles, krogoth comes up with some interesting ideas in the collectibles space and is trying to help bitcoin overall.
[2] Although "developer" was not part of this description, PowerGlove has helped with many significant changes on the forum, both publicly and behind the scenes, he's a great developer and has a good head on his shoulders... definitely a master of his craft.
[3] joker_josue developed and designed TalkImg, a bitcointalk image hosting service, which he has managed to keep going through attacks and various obstacles, and he still continues to improve it, not an easy task imo and he should be commended.

[1] With practically no girls on this forum, this seems obvious, without foxpup we wouldn't have any vag art... plus I just like fox pups.

Just because o_e_l_e_o is the definition of "This person has dedicated many years to serving the community and left an indelible legacy" itself.


LoyceV and examplens are hyperactive, I enjoy reading their posts and replies, which always have their distinctive style. LoyceV posted some very interesting threads, and offers many services to the forum. Both are incredible assets of this forum.
GazetaBitcoin is everywhere he can be useful to the community: he is active in his local section, is very proactive and a great translator in AOBT (Alliance of Bitcointalk Translators), he supports open source projects, produced great threads and manages dozens of translations of his threads brilliantly. This is also one of the few members who made me laugh on the forum!


mikeywith is probably the most efficient and responsive user when it comes to providing assistance and expertise in the Mining section. His posts are among my favorite to read, as they are always accurate while remaining accessible.


I love pizza, so it was fun to take part in this contest and see other people's creations. Plus, the prizes were great! It was my first time participating, and hope to have the time to do it again in the future!


[1] eXch is the first project I think of when I'm looking for the best forum project. It's reliable, efficient and regularly donates to privacy-friendly projects. eXch's admin often publishes relevant and useful content.
[2] Peach Bitcoin, is still too underrated on the forum, they offer a quality app that connects different parties for P2P BTC transactions.
[3] OrangeFren, is a non-KYC exchanges aggregator. OrangeFren listens to suggestions made on the forum, helps many users in disputes with exchanges/offers free insurances to protect exchanges users, and organizes many meet ups. He had to be on my list.


xtests posts quality, detailed and accurate messages. His posts in Exchanges/Services are always useful, for anyone interested in the subject of CEX / services. He has a unique style which is great to read.


holydarkness is doing a great job by acting as an intermediary between forum users and casino supports, we are lucky to have access to such a service so quickly on the forum!


[1] icopress is more than a dedicated member and manager. He even paid campaign participants from his own funds multiple times over when companies have defaulted/were late. He has very good business ethics, tries to find new places for his participants at the end of a campaign, and is someone who contributes enormously to our community (this thread in which this message is posted is just one example among plenty of others).
[2] willi9974 organizes a lot of great things over the years, helping to keep a warm spirit alive among small solo miners. After years of organizing Blockparties (and smoothly paying dozens of BTC to participants!), he now manages a small pool of solo miners on the forum.
[3] krogothmanhattan organized hundreds and hundreds of free raffles, is a friendly and organized user, a monument of the Collectibles section.


Saint-loup shares interesting points of view on crypto news, and is a major/constant contributor to the life of the FR local section. Danydee brings his freedom and activity, making the FR local less monotonous.


Becassine offers interesting discussions in my local section, organizes great contests (by the way.. when's the next one? ) and brings energy that is most welcome!
Foxpup contributes to the life of the forum and wrote what is probably the classiest first post on the forum.

In construction


* Theymos is a living legend, he kept this place alive, he is one of the best known figures in the bitcoin universe and his place is definitely written in history.


*JJG and his characteristic texts, which most often contain a huge amount of knowledge, JJG is practically a historical heritage of bitcointalk.
*LoyceV: I always see him helping people, he is also a historical heritage of bitcoin talk


*Forsyth Jones is a genuine Bitcoin and technology enthusiast, I always see him writing about technical aspects and helping people with it.


*I was here. A milestone for bitcoin.


Projects that I really like and that have enormous useful value for the entire community


Great posts throughout the year, always bringing good tutorials and relevant content.






I can mention others, it's a shame to vote for only 3, I really like everyone who frequents the Portuguese board


Our miss of the Portuguese board, without further ado, just search for Disruptivas on social media and see what I'm talking about.

What to say about o_e_l_e_o's contribution to the forum? I always enjoyed reading his posts. Leo is a true Bitcoiner and has helped the forum in many ways.


Paid2 - I give paid2 my vote, because I believe their contribution is superb, especially with the raffles they organize, their support on open-source projects and their help on voluntary signature campaigns.
LoyceV - Well, LoyceV has created too many good threads to support forum members. He has helped a lot with fee management, coins recovery, custom backup solutions and more.
GazetaBitcoin - Travelling around the forum's threads, his eyes watch every area of this forum. Incredibly talented in statistics, super strong with memory.


nc50lc - Well, I like their posts because they are very easy to understand even without being too technically savvy. Has a unique way to share knowledge about Bitcoin.
pooya87 - I like this guy. He's very knowledgeable and his responses are thoroughly explained.
BlackHatCoiner - Great knowledge, great asset, deserves the vote.

I frequent the technical areas a lot, so I must attribute some honorable mentions: ABCbits, dkbit98, gmaxwell, Pmalek, NotATether, moccaccino, Charles-Tim, DireWolfM14


Pie Baking Contest - Not much to say! I loved it and I sponsored it. Great contest with massive participation.
eXch Cryptosteele raffles - Bitcoiners have one job. To secure their private keys. eXch and cryptosteel co-operated and with the help of icopress and paid2 made free raffles for cryptosteel capsules. Brilliant!


eXch - The best exchange in the world.
OrangeFren - Great online directory for instant exchanges, atomic swaps, P2P exchanges.
PeachBitcoin - It's great to buy and sell bitcoin online without KYC, isn't it?


PowerGlove - He is not a new member, but my correspondence with him started in 2024. He is brilliant and his merit accumulation signals that he is a valuable member of this forum. I love his contribution and patches on SMF.


icopress - A great campaign manager with a big contribution on various aspects of the forum.
paid2 - For me, paid2 is a great forum member who has helped this community a lot. Hence the vote!


krogothmanhattan - I am not really into collectibles, but I am surprised how much everyone trusts krogothmanhattan. I 've seen great collectibles in their posts, with brilliant aesthetic and reasonable prices. Not to mention the giveaways!
1Dq - Lovely paintings mate! Adorable!


BlackHatCoiner - He is a valuable member of the forum and also active in the local board. I won't lie here, I don't frequent a lot on the local board, but almost every time I do, he has already posted there.


Foxpup - Not a lot to say. Foxpup cares about the forum more than everyone. The group she has created includes the elite of the forum's members. But it's not just that, she has been very supportive and a true bitcoiner.
lovesmayfamilis - We never had the chance to communicate a lot, but she seems to be a very good forum member.

If we get about 100 votes in 60 days, then prizes will probably go to 20% of the participants and the value of the prizes will increase to $200 per user.

Also, The template I used and shared by xLays 










[/code]

In the past year, only o_e_l_e_o's name comes to my mind. Do you think merits are given for nothing? Just look at his post history and you will understand why I thought of him (even though some of them are a bit controversial in my opinion). In fact, El duderino_ deserves this nomination for other reasons as well. He has been a true Bitcoiner for years, and when I reread the description of the "Hero of Good" nomination, I can't help but think of him.


Paid2, examplens, JayJuanGee ... these three move between the threads like real ninja virtuosos and in my opinion the description of the nomination "stand out from the crowd" subtly hints at their ability to make a bright positive impression on a large number of people as well as the charisma and mindset of these guys.


Do you know how to encrypt your private keys in the blockchain? I didn't know until I read the thread created by igor72. I see him every day explaining the basics of bitcoin to newbies and doing a lot of what this forum was created for. To me, this guy is not just a regular on the forum, he is a Bitcoin Geek.


[1] Will be filled later.
[2] Will be filled later.
[3] Will be filled later.


[1] eXch, donated over $200,000 dollars to non-profit initiatives in the past year!
[2] BC.Game, a project that probably supported 80% of all non-profit initiatives here over the past year.
[3] Whale, without a doubt the most promising project of all recently presented here on the forum.


[1] Will be filled later.
[2] Will be filled later.
[3] Will be filled later.


holydarkness, The first name that comes to my mind when the topic concerns help to someone.


[1] Krogothmanhattan, is just a crazy dude who behaves like a ninja in the collecting section.  

[2] Trofo & cryptofrka are legends of the gambling section and they brilliantly cope with all the obligations they take on. In particular, I want to note that the Fanatics League (BSFL) they created requires so much time from the participants that I can’t imagine how much time they have to spend on management.


I won't single out anyone in particular, but in my humble opinion I can say that Satscraper, Smartprofit and Julien_Olynpic are responsible for almost the entire Russian-speaking section. These users keep all active sections in good shape, publish detailed answers and always come to the rescue when needed.


[1] Foxpup for me is undoubtedly the personification of a strong and self-confident woman who clearly understands what she wants, knows how to separate the important from the unimportant and for many years has kept a group of alcoholics from the "merit cycling club" in check.
[1] Etranger is another representative of the female sex, whose characteristic feature is inexhaustible energy and optimism.

Bitcointalk Community Awards is a great opportunity for us to express our appreciation to those special people who are doing their best for their community, and for the impact they have on the forum .... this is what we said for 4 years in a row. We're still here to recap 2024, and you'll still be voting for events or users, but for the first time, all the prizes will go to those who've been behind the scenes all these years. All the prizes go to voters. 🏆

       What prizes await the winners?

This year, our sponsor 🔥 BC.Game, GazetaBitcoin, [C]ryptioS took care of the prizes! Prizes will go to 15% of ALL qualified votes, or 30 Winners will receive $150 each to their Bitcoin addresses. Considering the dynamics of the number of votes in previous years, we will have two main prize baskets, each of which will contain about 100 users.
