1. When and why did you become interested in cryptocurrencies?
It was late of 2015 when I first read about it but back then most of the investment platforms offer cloud minings.

After I read about the necessary information on how to invest, I quickly deposit some cash to try my first investment which is of course in the cloud mining site.
3. How did you get on the forum?
I came to the forum in July 2017 and only visited once when I register. it was never my plan to get here but a task that asked me to sign up for 100 forums English sites, included Bitcointalk. Only after a year in March 2018 I get back here with the help of my friend.
4.1. What prevents the mass adoption of cryptocurrencies?
Back then, it was the volatility of the market and some people think of it as a scam method to attract people. Including the hacking of the exchanges will prevent mass adoption as well.

I don't know about this one, In my opinion, so far so good there hasn't any problem until today.
4.3. How do you consider whether 2-3 years of experience in cryptocurrency is enough to successfully invest or does an investor need to receive special education?

5. What do you think of the current Merit system and signature campaigns? Do they harm the forum?
The merit system has helped this forum to control spam in the most effective way for years now. As for the signature campaigns, the manager should carefully select their participants because some of those people don't really care about their posts and sometimes they've posted the weekly quota in just 1-2 days.
6. The most useful forum topic? Most helpful users?
I rather say the most useful board in the community. I'd say the Beginners & Help board has lots of information for the new and veterans members. not only that, most of those seniors have their own opinions about the topic there. which will give us more knowledge about the topics.

That's the most important of all, Our anonymity which is a vital part of being a member of this community.
