Title: Will bitcointalk go public? Post by: Lohoris on June 14, 2013, 09:51:04 AM Since bitcointalk now accepts money for ads, and pays its admins and mods with those revenues, I wonder if it has any intention of issuing shares in any exchange, such as btct.co...
I mean, has it been discussed or considered? Title: Re: Will bitcointalk go public? Post by: tysat on June 14, 2013, 05:30:53 PM I don't see it happening ever, what would the point be?
The forum isn't run for profit. EDIT: INB4 "YOU'RE A MOD AND YOU GET PAID, YOU'RE JUST A SHILL FOR THE FORUM" I was a mod when it was free, getting some pay for doing the same thing is just a bonus.

That's like asking if I'm going to issue shares to my email account.

I could maybe see temporary bonds if the forum ever needed a lot of money quickly, but this is unlikely because there's already a lot of money in reserve.
