What happens to your network if bitcointalk go offline

[lovesmayfamilis]

To my great regret, some users of this forum have left or simply disappeared for various reasons. We can't do anything about it. We do not know what happened to them and what is the reason for their absence from the forum. Those who communicate closely with each other probably have additional contacts, but you will agree that it is impossible to get the contacts of everyone you need at a certain moment.
So your question looks very naive, if not stupid. This is the internet if you remember. We are in a virtual world, with virtual names. And everyone has their own offline life, which does not appear on this forum. This is not a social network. And finally, if the forum ceases to exist sooner or later, I think no one will die for this reason. Everyone will continue to live and look for other alternative sources for their questions and passions.

@Lovemayfamilis is really right ...
 Some members have contributed greatly in the growth and stability of these forum and you'll always wish to know them in person but finally you realise that they sometimes just gonna disappear without notice; sometimes not even for very important reasons, most of them feel they should go take some break and they end up not coming back.
 Lightlord as disappeared for a while and I heard that he needed serious medical attention and since then, I haven't gotten any information of any kind from him..
 They're always close associate in everything you do so you can maybe decide to see yourself somewhere outside the wider world.

Question for the poster: why do you panic about the closure of Bitcoin?
What if it doesn't end for another century?
That's shouldn't even be a problem dude ...
Let's get on and allow it to flow as it whishes, if it ends on the way, then that's worth a while... If it doesn't, keep going ....

If they aren't comfortable sharing contact information outside this forum, then the correspondence will be gone.

But there are a lot of other platforms outside this forum that many users here share. I've made a number of communications outside this forum with some acquaintances here.

However, how many users here are actually friends in real life? I guess not that many. There are probably just a handful especially among local users. Many are probably not interested in revealing their identities behind their usernames. I remember years ago somebody organized a local meetup of users here. I didn't find it exciting.

Just a newbie curiosity question

Maybe, some of the members here have given you a solution, if the forum is off, but for me I have other options for that, as long as the crypto market or crypto/Bitcoin trading exchange is not off, for me it's fine.

As I see the discussions and information in this forum, also most of the discussions are based on outside information that is being developed again here, I don't bother with that, bigger problem and everyone can't do anything about it, if the internet shuts down the whole world, that's what makes me nervous.

For the OP, before what you have in mind becomes a reality, so from now on make the best use of the Bitcointalk Forum for your future.

Telegram will be the very first and number one place to get in touch with one another, cause it is most times mandatory to join any campaigns telegram channel and official group, then, the managers channel and group all to stay updated about the campaign (this is mostly done in altcoin campaigns). Through this, the subscribers can use their forum nicknames as their telegram username, making it easy to recognize each other. Outside that, Twitter is another open place to get in touch again, then Reddit, and other crypto currency related forums around the web.

Looking at everything from the start point, this is the main and major Bitcoin forum, well known and recognized as a forum which Satoshi created giving it's full control to the hands of the current moderators. This is more like the birthplace of everything Bitcoin, so, it has to stand.

I will say Twitter is more better place than telegram because there are many who will try to imposter themselves as legit person but in actual will try to scam you as we have seen in many cases so for me telegram is not best place to hang out.This is discussion forum and members can get accurate information from senior and expert members but who will verify the source and information on telegram? So it's like interacting through forum PM on which you can be fooled but as a forum this is best place.

Bitcoin has grown beyond been  just mere digital currency it has grown to building networks of developers and investors who share similar interest so if Bitcoin talk should go offline the network would still continue in discord, reddit , GitHub, stalkoverflow and many other resource sites where developers and investors share similar interest. I don't think true Bitcoin investors and developers would ever get stranded except for those who gamble around Bitcoin and other crypto currencies
