Other forums such as altcoinstalks are starting to get crowded, some of the old forum members have started to teleport to other forums (altcoinstalk) see the picture below is no longer familiar some names have registered there, so it is likely that mixer advertising will be there.
Wow this is really interesting, they might can't compete this forum, but having signature campaign obviously will increase the traffic especially if there are more projects are joining to run a signature campaign.
Yeah most of the usernames are really familiar, but I'm not yet see the "big guys" in that forum or they might never ever want to join on there.
Don't know if it will be a competitor to bitcointalk, but imo that will never happen as bitcointalk will remain the main forum for bitcoin discussions etc.
It was also said by the admin of Altcoinstalks that the forum is not a replacement but an escape for the repressive community, maybe you can see the new policy here:
https://www.altcoinstalks.com/index.php?topic=312821.msg1452562#msg1452562It is possible that the forum's big contributors will but here and never teleport, but now we know enough that some users have started to enter the Altcoinstalks forum.
admin of that forum is very accomodating. anyone who wants to teleport, the admin can do it in less than an hour. if mixers are not welcome here anymore altcoinstalk will take them. although they may not haave a huge number of visitors a month, it will eventually increase when more users are going there.
kind of an active forum when there are tons of logged in users. once this forum becomes popular too, they will screen advertisers as well.
You are right, altcoinstalk have been from way back, Infact, let me confess that I actually started with that forum, I was like the second or third person that signed up on that forum when they launched newly, the admin made me a global moderator back then, but due to lack of activity on the forum, I stopped logining in there, and 2020 when I returned back on that forum, they have achieved a lot and I discovered that I can no longer remember my username, nor the password or the email address I signed up with, I had to create a new account which Is the one I am currently using.
From my long experience on altcoinstalk, the admin is indeed a very good person, a fellow that is very accommodating just as you have said, and I perceive he's very humble too.
I honestly can not see altcointalk ever replacing this forum as long as this forum remains online, but what is certain is that, altcoinstalk may possibly become big too with the right users, engagements and promotions, the admin of that forum is always open to new ideas and upgrade, did you guys notice the general chatbox on the site? That's an amazing feature to be honest.
