From Theymos sometime ago :
Quote
Bitcoin.org:
 - Cobra has ultimate control over the domain name. I have access to the domain name settings.
 - Cobra runs the server.
 - Will Binns holds the BTC.

Bitcointalk.org:
 - Cobra has ultimate control over the domain name. I have access to the domain name settings.
 - I run the server. Cobra has no access to the database or server.
 - The BTC is held by myself and the treasurers. Cobra has no access.

I am not Cobra. What would even be the point of that?

The thread is locked so here is the link to that quote :
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3284381.msg34255007;topicseen#msg34255007

I think there was enough signature spam in this thread, now it's time to be locked.

Who really owns this forum? - The bounty spammers. Smiley
Lol,considering they may actually be the vast majority in the forum,you actually could be correct Grin
To the OP:No one actually owns the forum,since users like yourself are allowed to have accounts and spam the shit out of the forum.
Do you think if we had a staunch ruler,king,prince,president,owner etc, you'll be allowed in here to ask us such questions as this  Grin Huh,you'll be fired/kicked out immediately.

I guess this topic started in Bitcoin discussion and was moved here, right?
Nice quads we have here: Teymos, Themos, Thermos, and Thymeos.


Theymos should really change his name to Tomoshi or Tateyoshi, cause it's damn funny how none of the spammers got satoshi nakamoto's name wrong.

I can't tell who owns this forum. Know that it is historical) It is here that bought a pizza for 10,000 btc, it was here that the founder of Silk Road. But I think the founder of this forum a very smart man and we will never know about it.

The forum now is owned by Theymos ever since Satoshi left him in charge of the forum as administrator.
sometimes I still ask myself, how can Theymos take over this forum? did he buy this forum from satoshi or maybe he know satoshi? because I haven't found that information until now

Satoshi is an open source farsight genius guy so I think he would never sell any of his masterpiece to anybody. If I were him I'd like to be 200% sure in the real intensions of people who will will be in charge of such an important thing as bitcointalk Wink

I have always taught about this, who owns this forum and how did it start?

You know?



Bitcoin founder Satoshi Nakamoto founded this forum. Then he handed over the reins of the current administration. No further information.

This has almost remained a puzzle for everyone to crack, but no one seem to have gotten a particular answer to it or answer that is most accurate.
I am thinking that, what can clear the air of doubt is, if Satoshi  that some people claim he created the forum, comes to say it himself that he created it, or if most recognized admin comes up and if there is no one to debunk it, then I will be sure.

I don't think it is owned by anyone really.
There are moderators who help run the place, so I guess you can say that it is "owned" by a handful of people that maintain the website.
But really, bitcointalk is just a forum, that's why its been so endearing and lasted so long.
It hasn't been corrupted by ads or any corporate sponsorship.
Of course, you could say that avatars and bounty hunting are ads, but they aren't intrusive at all.

That is why bitcointalk is such a great place to go to for crypto information and discussions.
You do have to be careful, for every good piece of information there are 100s of trash ones.
But you can generally find what you are looking for, especially since we are all into crypto together.

It is owned by theymos himself but it is true that satoshi was a member here and that created the big attention. There was other forums as well and there was many places on internet like reddit and so forth that Satoshi himself could go and talk to people but he proffered here so everyone came here since the founder was here. Theymos managed to make this into a crypto hub but it wasn't all by himself.

I had the chance to talk to theymos only once in my bitcointalk life and he is quite to the point type of person, I asked something, he did in under one condition and that was it forever. It is not a wonder that the current administration in place haven't changed for a long long time because Satoshi left them in charge of the forum and when someone trusts you with something (specially if that someone is as big as satoshi) you have hard time trusting others with it.

the owner of this forum is the creator of bitcoin Satoshi Nakamoto, but he left I don't know if it is true, the owner of this forum now is theymos, maybe he knows where's satoshi is.
Yes I have heard about it too that people are saying  this that satoshi is the creator of bitcoin. He invented it in 2009 since then no one actually know him as his identity is anonymous but I am sure he must own this forum too. Just keep searching maybe someday you will have your answer but till now I did not find any satisfactory answer of this question.

Sirius was the founder of this forum. https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Sirius

Cobra and Theymos jointly owned this domain the last time I remember. But Cobra was asked to step down for his extreme responses to bitcoin forks and community. Don't know if Cobra is still the forum co-owner, he isn't active since April 2017.

I don't know who won this forum but I know one thing this forum will change a lot of people lives to a great value and there daily life was changed by this forum and a lot of people will made a lot of happiest thing using and helped by this forum.
In any case, today many bitcointalk users have gotten very grateful to the forum. This is practically the only resources that introduces people with cryptocurrency and makes the community even more.

Anyone would like to go back to the origins of the forum and become part of it in the beginning) I think it is a cherished dream of every user), But alas... Whoever Satoshi is, he's a great man! And maybe one day, he'll show up here again.)

I see we have a question here who is the main one. Can we find an answer to this question. I think no. The founder of the forum is a well-known person to us. However, it is unknown to whom it belongs. Because this cryptocurrency is also a business.
