Some of those companies mentioned above probably will never show up in this forum ever again. Bitpay is a good example. These guys were actively trying to push their big block agenda and they delayed segwit update for a long time. When they were doing that, people in this forum were also actively promoting btcpay and cursing bitpay. So, I don't think bitpay will ever come here and advertise their services.
Did BitPay want to advertise on this forum? By the way, Wasabi Wallet relaunched their signature campaign after the ban of mixers despite the fact that people were cursing Wasabi
@Wonder Work,
All I'm saying is that if Bitcointalk hires a team of web developers, marketers, project managers and so on, just like Reddit, this forum will become a very popular place in the crypto world.
P.S. I didn't say that being famous doesn't require excessive marketing, I said quite the opposite.
Trezor said they'd consider it (but never looked into it further) while the ledger rep I was talking to asked what I could do with a $500/month marketing budget. lol
$500 a month? Really? I think that that was a polite no from them
Out of curiousity, did they approach you? This would mean that, at least, they have the option deep inside their heads.
I like Trezor, I dislike Ledger, but I would promote both of them, since I am strongly in favour of well established hardware devices.
Do as you wish but if I were you, I wouldn't promote Ledger because Ledger is a shady company. They have been promising that keys never left the secure chip but then came up with an update called Ledger Recover. Promoting them is a harm to my mind.
