You can't do that. A community is a group that believes in a project and trusts what it can become giving enough time and support, if they don't really know what the project is about, they cannot trust and build it.
What you can do is build anticipation for your project.

Be creative.
There are thousands of similar projects looking to build a community, you need to make yours stand out. Identify where your target audience are, catch their atention and find a way to keep it.

During development ideally.

Both are not mutually exclusive. You maintain trust by being transparent with your community members and having an actual product which offers value.

Reddit, telegram, twitter.

Is your project affiliated with this thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5489652.0

If you want actual presence on the forum, you'll need to put in more effort than this.

There are varying definitions of doxxing. Some define it as linking real life information to an anonymous online personality. As an example;
• the address of Mr. Thomas is 124 wallet street, this is a public information on their community register.
• hooded hacker is a online personality who doesn't post any personal information online,
• a link is made between Me. Thomas and hooded hacker and everyone now knows where "hooded hacker" lives, even those who do not like his anonymous work.

No, it's not.
What is prohibited or should be, is trying to unearth personal information about satoshi which they did not make public.

Keeping up with multiple discussions on one thread is hard enough, doing that across two different threads will be very difficult and discussions cannot be moved across from one thread to another, meaning they will need to be deleted.

I personally believe that if a local thread has gotten to a point where there is a puzzle if one thread can fit in everything, then it's a good time to start considering giving that community a local board.

I'm with the Pakistani local board on this. When you have just a local thread to discuss everything about cryptocurrency, both local and international news, then one would need the freedom to discuss multiple topics on that thread, including off topic content as well, cause there is no where else to do that.

I usually don't know what to do with short term price predictions. It's always far more difficult to guess where Bitcoin would be within the next 24 hours than withing 6 months to a year.

I'll take the date in the topic title, cause it is the only one that can apply and predict a Bitcoin price of $63,456.

That rise is very instrumental in developing countries as well. In numerous situations having the opportunity to transact under the radar when the government wants to restrict other means of sending money gives individuals an escape route and it is an alternative to the local currencies which are mostly suffering from inflation.

However, at the end of the day, all countries are thc same when it comes down to the need to control the flow of money. Canada recently sanctioned wallets due to a protest.

That is a popular case which got lots of attention and the individual in this case was able to afford a very good legal team. Many individuals who have been harrased by the authorities for their involvement in crypto related activities never actually made it to the internet.

The forum has a currency exchange child board.

There are decentralized exchanges with P2P options and centralized exchanges as well. If those urls are blocked, some exchanges have telegram groups for P2P exchanges.

For this to even count for search engines, we would need threads talking specifically about the price, with "Bitcoin price" scattered all around. But even that would not be able to compete with the number of coin trackers and exchanges which pop up when someone asks about the price, along with Google's default price tracker.

Adding this would not directly help the forum and I don't think it would directly help the users. There are already a lot of ways to check the price and the forum would not want to encourage the over speculation on the Bitcoin price.

Lightening network is not an alternative to internet connection needed for communication between servers.

Wireless radio signals like LoRa could be a alternative solution down the road, as I'm sure similar networks would be launched with time.

What describes "tainted" coins to you?

If it's coins that have been mixed or coinjoined in the past then you can use chain analysis tools which are available. Researching on how mixers work, identifying their addresses directly and recording them can help your filtering.

If you're looking out for coins that have been involved in illegal activities, then you'll have to do the same by looking out for addresses that have been blacklisted to belong to scammers along with the UTXOs and block them.

Some would argue it already is widely accepted as a payment option. It is used in multiple countries both online and offline and is the legal tender of at least 1 country at this time. In the short time it has existed, that's a lot of progress.
If you're asking when it would compete with VISA, PayPal and other payment options, no one can say for sure when that will happen.

Yes.

The Bitcoin whitepaper starts off describing Bitcoin as;
"A purely peer-to-peer version of electronic cash [which] would allow online payments to be sent directly from one party to another without going through a financial institution".

• Scalability is the most important factor a viable payment option should have. Second on the list will be price volatility.
• Yes, bitcoins are speculated on more than they are used for payments.

USDT cannot be backed by Bitcoin or it losses the status of being a stable coin. It will also be unnecessary to use a coin which is backed by Bitcoin when you can simply buy Bitcoin.

As it is, Bitcoin cannot effectively replace fiat globally just yet and any country who wants to adopt it will be using it as an alternative currency and not the staple one.

You can't at any point in time vouch for the status of the reserves, it's mostly a game of trusting a centralized system.

It doesn't matter much, especially when overwhelmingly the account has way more positive trusts than negative.
The second reason is that if someone whose feedback counts is giving out wrong ratings, their feedback would not count for much longer. I can't see a negative rating on your profile now.

If reaching out to the user is unproductive, simply remove them from your trust list and forget about it.

Signatures are graphic designs just like avatars and should carry the colours of the brand they are advertising. Factoids in signatures do not randomly alternate color scheme and neither should texts in a thread.

• If used properly it can make a post easier to read. When abused like you do, it's like a toddlers color book
• The way you use it detracts.
• The forum has multiple text features. I can make a word this big. Doesn't mean I should make my threads using that size of text.

Instead of looking for reasons to justify your abuse of the color format code, look to make corrections based on what is generally acceptable.

No, there is no inherent danger in this that they can steal your coins. It's just a way of proving that you indeed have ownership of the Bitcoin wallet's private keys, and allows others to verify that information without giving them any more access.
There is even a thread on the forum for users to sign messages with addresses that have been posted by an account to prove they own the address and account - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=996318.0

You didn't give us more information, so we cannot know if the other party should be knowing exactly how much bitcoins you have and the reason for the need to sign a message.

These were cases of users being sent a raw transaction which was created with the public key of the address and they verified it, effectively signing that transaction and sending the coins/tokens out of it.

If they send you a transaction hash, DO NOT SIGN IT.
You do not need anyone to send you anything when signing a message or a txid.

A mining companies first goal is to have a profitable business and keep that running for as long as possible. There is the cost of production that goes into keeping a mining rig functional and that should come from the profits of the business.

Mining companies can keep their cash flow in Bitcoin and some do since they were Bitcoin enthusiasts and believe in its potential for appreciation which was what influenced their decision to start mining. This is not a display to the public, just a business investment and some other mining companies can have a different model of operation.

You can simply multiply 1,000,000 by the current supply or more accurately, what the supply would be in the next ten years or thereabouts,, that should be approximately $20 trillion. It is a possible number for the top performing cryptocurrency and yes it would exceed the market cap of gold, although I don't see why there is a comparison at all between gold and Bitcoin.

I wasn't suggesting we get there by 2025.

To get to $1,000,000 we need about a 1400% increase or a 14× rise from the current price. Putting it into numbers shows how realistic a target 1 million is within the next decade or so.

By the end of this cycle we could be up to $120-140k and that will halve the gap for the market to multiply to a million, so by the end of 2025 we will be well on the way to a million.
