Title: Any HackerNews [HN] visitors on the forum? Post by: Seal on November 21, 2014, 03:32:59 PM Hello Bitcointalk,
I wanted to ask the community if there are any Hacker News visitors on the forum. See: http://hackerne.ws/ or https://news.ycombinator.com/ For those who don't know what Hacker News is, "Hacker News is a social news website that caters to programmers and entrepreneurs, delivering content related to computer science and entrepreneurship." (shamelessly copied from wikipedia) It was created by Paul Graham, one of the founders of Y Combinator, one of the most successful startup incubators in the valley. I'd like to ask the community here that if you frequent hacker news, to upvote anything that mentions Cryptocurrencies or Bitcoin. Why? Ultimately we all have the aligned interest in helping the adoption of cryptocurrencies and anything we can do to increase its visibility amongst the tech devs, entrepreneurs and VC investors is going to help! https://news.ycombinator.com/newest Title: Re: Any HackerNews [HN] visitors on the forum?

Yes it is, for self promoting your own specific targeted posts. I'm making a case for our community who are advocates of bitcoin to upvote bitcoin related content for the purpose of helping the crypto space gain more visibility. To that merit, what are people's own 'upvote' policies? |
