I remember a discussion I had in my little crypto community, I had discussions with some people who are experts in DeFi. But after a while of discussing, I talked about Bitcointalk, but they all asked. What is Bitcointalk?
From the case study above, we can know that currently people know crypto but don't know about Bitcointalk created by Satoshi Nakamoto.
Topic: Why new projects/ coins do not have ANN on bitcointalk ? - page 3. (Read 822 times)
Change is constant in life, times pass and things have changed new projects nowadays get their publicity on social media platforms rather than post here when they will get critized or something, but i have a feeling that those new projects owners don't have any idea about this forum, maybe that's why you don't see any of them posting an ANN or even organizing a bounty campaign, social media and partnerships seems to be the best way new projects get publicized lately.
Most new projects do not have ANN on Bitcointalk because they do not plan to hold a bounty campaign in this forum. Or the new projects do not need
this forum to promote their projects, because new projects in the crypto world do not have to be promoted on the Bitcointalk forum to attract investors.
Especially now that there are many social media that can be used for promotion, but I am not interested in investing in new projects that do not have
ANN on Bitcointalk. For me it is safer if there is ANN on Bitcointalk for new projects, so it can be my research to determine whether these projects are
good or bad.
While there are some people that are going to complain about it to me this is a blessing in disguise, it is impossible to know but can you imagine the amount of people that were scammed in the forum over the years? The number should be huge and now that number is going to increase more slowly because of several reasons.this forum to promote their projects, because new projects in the crypto world do not have to be promoted on the Bitcointalk forum to attract investors.

The first reason is that people that are here in the forum have finally learned their lesson, while there are still many users interested in altcoins now after being scammed several times many users are now interested only in bitcoin, and the second reason is that with less coins advertising themselves in the forum newbies will have a lesser chance of being scammed and that is always a good thing and finally with some users being very experimented busting scammers this means that only decent projects have a reason to create an ANN thread here increasing the ratio of good projects versus bad projects.
This forum's glory days are done. Crypto was a small community which has it roots here and it has grown to world wide phonomen, they just dont see any reason to make an ANN here. They get the social communication part done with twitter and facebook . they dont need this site.
But it will still better if they will put Ann here for discussion for their target investors as well checking if the projects were legit. We know twitter been used more now in terms of creating crypto hype but this forum discussion can have a much serious note in determining projects purposes, thoughts as well if they have previous bad reputation, but maybe this forum seems to be so strict for them that they don't bother anymore putting Ann Thread. 
I was not on bitcointalk before 2018 but I think some networks (especially twitter or discord and others) are really attractive these days so then project's teams no longer really need to post here to get some attention.
In addition, although it remains (in my opinion) AAA+ quality, the forum has still kept it's vintage look, not so entertaining and friendly for people coming from tweeter

This is perhaps due to strict rules here and banning of accounts, even there are no quality bounty campaigns with good budget list here anymore, with wrong policies and censored and controlled environment the largest crypto forum is perhaps losing as its policies are at a 360 angle when it comes to decentralized and free concept of crypto, bitter truth.
Yes, bitcointalk has become a very toxic place for scammers and other rule-breakers.
Since you are making claims on here, maybe it would be a good idea to give some context on where this is coming from?
It's an open secret that the majority of people who support the decentralized internet will fall victim to phishing scams (except for those who are smart enough not to use that social networking crap). Bitter truth.
Social media such as Twitter has provided many benefits to new investors, such as the tweet from the Tesla founder,doge prices go up with fast.
I'm happy to see ANN threads filled with new projects, but currently social media is the choice of several new projects to convey information and provide many discounts for pre-sales.
If they plan to create ANN Threads here, I think they need to pay to get cooper member rank.

There was a time when every crypto project had their ANN on bitcointalk. But recently times have changed. I see majority of new projects listed on coinmarketcap but they do not their ANN listed here.
Most of the projects are happy have their community on facebook, twitter, telegram but ignore this platform. What could be the reason for this ?

My bet is they didnt have a good account in this platform, so instead using newbie acc which will seen like unprofessional things, or even pay someone to post or manage the ann thread (maybe will costly).
They prefer to build their own community in their social media channel.

In the past bitcoin talk was the only way to promote a bitcoin-related project. Or at least it was the way with a major impact. But now is different, we can find tons of crypto users on reddit, twitter, facebook, even tiktok has bumped Dogecoin in the past months. So, the forum isn't 'a must', like it used to be in the past to promote a crypto project.
Is nice to have the business with a thread on this forum because is a great way to do customer support. But if something goes wrong with the business they can lose their trust here and that is a high-risk move from any kind of business.

Ok, I don't think so. The glory days of this forum are not over. It is by far the largest crypto community in the world.
True, crypto was a small community initially, and it has grown into a world wide phenomenon, but bitcointalk is still a vital part of it.
The forum is a great place to learn about crypto, chat about new projects and discuss what we are learning from other projects. It isn't just for projects that are trying to get funded. Its focus is on learning about Bitcoin and other coins/protocols and how they can be used in daily life.
Will bitcointalk survive?
Maybe not in this form. But I believe we have a good chance if we switch to the new epochtalk platform in time, which opens up many new possibilities.
I don't this that's a requirement for projects to do so, AFAIK most projects introduced themselves to the forum in the form of an ANN or bounty campaign as it was targeted to a crypto community which would find their content relevant and at the time it was difficult to find people with crypto interest.
Now times have changed and more people around the world are aware of crypto and would easily find investors off the forum with ease which is a win for the forum as it has given crypto the exposure it needed.

Recently, IDOS conducted on decentralized exchanges have been particularly popular. Given the high demand, such coins are distributed through a lottery and, accordingly, they do not need advertising on various forums. Thus, in order to get investors for their project, they do not need to place their ANN, since investors are already waiting in line.
There are times that new project/s really don't have ann thread in the bitcointalk forum but they do have bounty thread/s as a reference for their platforms. For me, it is still important to have a website and social media pages rather than ann thread cause usually, crypto users and investors always rely on social media and whitepapers.
It Is ANN really a matter of projects, given that we have so many places to exchange news with each other right now. If there is a phishing project that will have more ways to warn people, make tweets attack their social channel, we have more ways to deal with it than to just force it within such a framework.

Time has change, From my perspective Before most of coin here was Community-Driven with only Bitcointalk & Reddit as the place to promote their Projects to gain more traction and support. Today it's more simpler with only need held an IEO on some big Exchange and partnering with some Big entities and it can easily gain more traction, There was also tons of new Tracking-Platform for new Project to get more attention. Bitcointalk was also bad for some fraud project (Most of them today) since it can be spotted by the community.
What does ANN mean?
Announcement - can be of a new service or a new token that get launched. At one time we had ICO projects posting their ANN as a part of their promotional campaign on this forum in order to get the word out among the forum users.Although with time the ANN of Altcoins sections begun to show their real faces that majority of these ICO projects were scams or failures from the start.
I agree because some of the projects are focused on social medias whein millions to billions of audiences get advertised every single day plus the streaming sites. Youtube, twitter, facebook, telegram, reddit are common to newer projects nowadays.
It is easier to spread a scam project on social media where the calling out gets suppressed like anything. While on this forum we have "Scam Accusations" where the importance to the calling out of such scams is given much importance so much so that we can tag the accused and ruin their reputation here on bitcointalk. 
Most of the initial coins that were announced here were open source and community based. And bitcointalk initially had the most vibrant crypto community you'd found. They needed the help and support of the community. Currently, most of the announced coins are commercial tokens. They just set up their website and make a deal with popular exchange to get listed.
Also only those project list here who want to gain the true community power of followers by offering bounty etc. If the project does not care about the true community, they probably be happy to pay the youtubers to shill their scam coins. A scam coins won't survive here on bitcointalk because of the community here who exposes every scam for example fake profiles or copied whitepaper etc.
What could be the reason for this ?
If that's actually really the case, I'm guessing that some projects simply just has too much publicity right off the bat on social media that the publicity for posting on Bitcointalk might be quite irrelevant. Especially when a certain project isn't planning on having a bounty campaign, they might not get that much traction here at all.
Tell me the reason it is necessary for the project to create ANN on bitcointalk.
Although depending on different projects they have their own channels to discuss their issues privately, so I don't think it is an important issue.
It's necessary for me, for a new coin every publicity small or big should be considered, the coin has a huge potential for them not to need Bitcointalk for their announcement, Bitcointalk is a big publicity site, all discussions here are indexed in the search engine and open to all potential visitors, all I know they don't want to be criticized if they do not want to open a thread here. Although depending on different projects they have their own channels to discuss their issues privately, so I don't think it is an important issue.
