Title: Who hosts Bitcoin Talk? Post by: jormo on June 21, 2018, 03:29:44 AM Bitcoin Talk was founded by Satoshi but he stopped posting after December 13, 2010. Theymos is the owner now but who hosts Bitcoin Talk? Does Satoshi still run the hosting or does Theymos host it? If Theymos doesn't does he still have access to the server?
Title: Re: Who hosts Bitcoin Talk? Post by: Silent26 on June 21, 2018, 03:43:14 AM Bitcoin Talk was founded by Satoshi but he stopped posting after December 13, 2010. Yuph, he's/she's/they're pretty busy right now for sure, doing some stuff to improve bitcoin? No one really knows what Satoshi's doing. Quote Theymos is the owner now but who hosts Bitcoin Talk? Does Satoshi still run the hosting or does Theymos host it? If Theymos doesn't does he still have access to the server? I think it's Sir theymos who hosts Bitcointalk. And yes, theymos has access to server.Why do you ask anyway? Title: Re: Who hosts Bitcoin Talk? Post by: Lutpin on June 21, 2018, 03:47:45 AM As head admin, theymos is in charge of hosting.
Edit: Seems my information is outdated: It is owned by Cobra. Bitcointalk.org: - Cobra has ultimate control over the domain name. [theymos has] access to the domain name settings. - [theymos runs] the server. Cobra has no access to the database or server. Title: Re: Who hosts Bitcoin Talk?

I was wondering if maybe Satoshi was still working on bitcoin talk and hosting it and stuff but was silent while doing so. I understand now though. Title: Re: Who hosts Bitcoin Talk?

I was wondering if maybe Satoshi was still working on bitcoin talk and hosting it and stuff but was silent while doing so. I understand now though. Theymos pay the bills. He receives money from the ads on the forum and from donations. Cyrus is the responsible for the domain name and is also an admin. The other administrators are grue, hilariousandco, mprep, rickbig41,Saltspitoon, The forum sells ad space in the area beneath the first post of every topic page. This income is used primarily to cover hosting costs and to pay moderators for their work (there are many moderators, so each moderator gets only a small amount -- moderators should be seen as volunteers, not employees). Any leftover amount is typically either saved for future expenses or otherwise reinvested into the forum or the ecosystem. Nobody knows what Satoshi is doing right now. And this is great =) Title: Re: Who hosts Bitcoin Talk? Post by: Lutpin on June 21, 2018, 05:34:04 AM Cyrus is the responsible for the domain name and is also an admin.

When we report a PM appears the option to send to the "admin team of the forum". Are there levels of hierarchy among those I mentioned? How many of them are admin? Only Theymos and Cyrus? And I thought Sirius (Martti Malmi) have given up from the domain ownership. Title: Re: Who hosts Bitcoin Talk? Post by: Crypto_Sassy on June 21, 2018, 07:10:36 AM As head admin, theymos is in charge of hosting. As owner, usually sirius is cited, as he controls the domain bitcointalk.org You are wrong here in saying Sirius control the domain bitcointalk.org. It is owned by Cobra. Below are the words of the theymos: 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. you can read whole discussion at https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3284381.msg34254458#msg34254458 Title: Re: Who hosts Bitcoin Talk? Post by: Lutpin on June 21, 2018, 08:03:10 AM It is owned by Cobra. I've adjusted my post, I was searching for updated information on the domain situation, but couldn't find any, thus I went with Sirius.Regardless, the answer to the question asked by OP stays the same, theymos controls the server and hosting.

Post by: mdayonliner on June 21, 2018, 10:01:09 AM I was looking for this coz my memory was saying, theymos had a reply in one of the topic.

Post by: shilpyh on June 22, 2018, 02:36:59 PM Bitcoin Talk was founded by Satoshi but he stopped posting after December 13, 2010. Theymos is the owner now but who hosts Bitcoin Talk? Does Satoshi still run the hosting or does Theymos host it? If Theymos doesn't does he still have access to the server? What is the reason for asking such a question. Anyway, I think as an admin Theymos might have access of the hosting. Also it is not mandatory to host as it can be paid from the payment method which was given while signed the host payment method.Title: Re: Who hosts Bitcoin Talk?
