Wright https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=24749 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=24749) (banned? - untrustworthy tag ? ) 2014 MNW and theymos very much did not get along, although he was previously a staff member. I remember seeing his negative rating on theymos show up that resulted from him being on someone's trust list, that said that theymos is just a 21 year old kid who ran an illegal stock exchange. MNW was apparently banned and temporarily unbanned a number of times so he can post updates in regards to repaying his debts. Although he said at the time he was trolling when he was guaranteeing repayment of pirate40's ponzi, he did eventually pay a lot of money who took him up on his bet. Some of the donators that were given a scammer tag prior to the trust system being introduced also lost their title when the new new trust system was introduced. Quote This person was given a scammer tag by a forum administrator prior to the existence of the trust system. This means that they were either a proven scammer, someone linked to a proven scammer by IP evidence, or someone with an account likely compromised by a known scammer. However, this information is very old and maybe not 100% accurate, so use this rating as only part of your trust judgement. Title: Re: The Bitcointalk 10 BTC Donators - where are they now ?

(https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4432338.0) I'm interested in the history and how bitcointalk has changed over time. Also in the personalities that are involved in Bitcointalk. Without the founders, staff who run the site and the people who donated - there would be no bitcointalk. Also I found this: (of which this is an update) Let me know who else to red-glow out.

Post by: xtraelv on June 12, 2018, 05:57:44 AM Those donators have all been the quality this forum had at that time and we realize that when we read the threads from that time. They being missing is one of the reasons why the forum is in such a situation where spam is the first thing you see when you open a section to read something good. Crypto has gone through stages and this forum has documented those stages. The initial stage - where the focus was creation of the code and blockchain The implementation stage - debugging and developing processes and applications - exchanges and payment systems. The copycat stage - the introduction of alts and development of alternative technologies. The ICO stage and masternode marketing stage. Where tokens and masternodes are being used to get rich quick. There is still a lot of good stuff on Bitcointalk - it is just harder to find. Watching the patrol page can be a bit disheartening. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=recent;patrol Just single sentence comments with no substance and bounty replies. Looking into the "oldies" that were on here - a lot of them are still around. Title: Re: The Bitcointalk 10 BTC Donators - where are they now ? Post by: Fiord on June 12, 2018, 06:23:01 AM I did not expect that a lot of donations were in 2017, it turns out that the minimum donation was $ 7900 and the maximum could be 200 000 $, and in 2018 there no donations at all, although half a year has passed.
Those donators have all been the quality this forum had at that time and we realize that when we read the threads from that time. They being missing is one of the reasons why the forum is in such a situation where spam is the first thing you see when you open a section to read something good. It seems to me that spam is just a symptom, and the reason is the crazy popularity growth of crypto currencies, everything is changing, perhaps at one time only constructive dialogues were conducted on this forum, but now there are plenty of newcomers, most of whom understand little about smart contracts, decentralization and crypto currencies in general and aims only to earn, is it bad? Of course it's bad, but maybe in a year or so, these people will start to study those things, and in five years they will be able to bring something of their own into the crypto community, in everything there can be positive sides.

It is still possible to make a small donation through the copper membership option. I don't think the forum currently needs funding since there would have been some surplus from the early days and the price of bitcoin went up a lot since then.

All forums struggle with spam. Bots have made it possible to spam faster than humans can remove it. The "new crowd" may not understand how things work but do still have an important role. This is the BETA test stage. These people will break what can be broken, make mistakes that were not even considered and do things that are unimaginable. It will result in technology that will become grandma proof. Title: Re: The Bitcointalk 10 BTC Donators - where are they now ?

I remember seeing his negative rating on theymos show up that resulted from him being on someone's trust list, that said that theymos is just a 21 year old kid who ran an illegal stock exchange. MNW was apparently banned and temporarily unbanned a number of times so he can post updates in regards to repaying his debts. Although he said at the time he was trolling when he was guaranteeing repayment of pirate40's ponzi, he did eventually pay a lot of money who took him up on his bet.

Lawrence I never saw a wild thing sorry for itself. A small bird will drop frozen dead from a bough without ever having felt sorry for itself. I agree - I doubt many would have real regrets. You can't have regrets in Crypto. You'll miss the next opportunity if you think too much about what you have spent or missed out on. Spending crypto is actually good for the Crypto itself - it wasn't designed to be HODLed forever. It is the people that use it, mine it, buy it and sell it that give it value. If I would spent time on reliving the lost opportunities I would be permanently depressed and wouldn't enjoy the "wins". In Crypto - shit happens and you move on to the next opportunity. If you had 10 BTC then and you don't have any now then your mistake wasn't to use the 10 BTC but to have a lack of faith in BTC that prevented you from getting more.

Why did you say like that sir? I guess they have a lot of money and 10 bitcoin probably too easy to gain with their job. And I'm less comfortable with your words that say "shit forum" :(. I really like this forum sir. If I have 1000 bitcoin I will donate 10 bitcoins gladly to make this forum alive and growing. If necessary I will also integrate blockchain technology into this forum for stronger community and security. So, please if there is any lack of this forum, this should be the responsibility of all cryptocurrency activists.
