Bitcoin Forum

I have received a few requests to revive The Fit to Talk English project (https://fittotalk.com/english-talk/), and I still have a great deal of affection for the project. I apologise for having neglected it, but it did seem to go through a quiet period. I would like to revive the English practice forum, and I would be grateful if anyone who has an interest in this, or can offer a small degree of support could discuss this in this thread.

I did start some Spanish language related projects, but the members involved in those seem to have left Bitcoin Talk, and I have allowed the domain names to drop. However this should not have an adverse effect on the basic purpose for which the forum was created. I am interested in adding some audio features to the site as well, and this would allow Bitcoin Talk members to practice spoken English as well as text communications.

Hi Jet, Thanks for considering my request hope more of the members who are interested come here.

I want to ask you some question regarding the Fittotalk project, have you been following any methodology to test your assumptions of the project?

Maybe with that, we could reduce the numbers of members dropping the Fittotalk forum and make a more sustainable project

 

Thank you for your interest. I have sent some time reflecting on the project, and have discussed it with a number of people.

As I have mentioned, the main aim of the project is to help the unbanked and those living in countries with severely disadvantaged currencies, and Venezuela was one of the countries I tried to support. Many of the people in these countries do not have English as a first language, and this can make it difficult for them to evaluate and to take advantages of the major crypto currencies such as Bitcoin. I would like to open the forum to possible members outside the Bitcoin Talk community, but this increases the risk of spammer applications, and these can consume quite a lot of unproductive time.

I would be grateful for any advice and/or comments about this.

I didn't know the aim of the project was the unbaked people, I mean there is a lot of people in other countries that aren't so bad technologically such as Spain and their citizens tend to speak English in a horrible manner

Knowing that, It would be great if we could help skilled labor in these countries to land a job in another language, probably they could get a better payment than their own countries.
