Who created bitcointalk?

[shahzadafzal]

It was  Jeff Garzik who created bitcointalk.org in 2011. Satoshi did not create bitcointalk.org. Bitcointalk.org was a clone of bitcoin.org. Give me a reference of satoshi or any high ranking members before 2011 talking about "bitcointalk".

Logically, you are right, but technically speaking, Bitcointalk is the same as it was when Satoshi started the Bitcoin forum.

While Satoshi did not register the domain name 'bitcointalk.org,' he certainly initiated and created the forum. It still exists today, having migrated from SourceForge.net SMF to 'bitcointalk.org.'

Consider this: how much has the 'Bitcoin' software changed or improved since Satoshi's time? Quite a lot. Yet, we still refer to it as Satoshi's creation, regardless of the enhancements made. Similarly, Bitcointalk.org serves as a gateway to the original forum that Satoshi initiated and created.

I think the right word is launched, Satoshi launched this forum but it is the community members from the past and the present that created this forum into what it is today, this platform is community type where people can register and contribute content so its reputation is built by members' content.

The Bitcoin Forum is a website meant to host free discussion of Bitcoin and related topics. It is operated as a service to the community, and all profit is reinvested into the forum and the community. It was started in 2009 by Satoshi Nakamoto, the original creator of Bitcoin. It is now managed by Michael Marquardt (theymos), Martti Malmi (Sirius), and Stefan Thomas (justmoon). Donated funds are managed by theymos.

It actually feels so weird knowing how when they first opened these Donations they were 50 BTC and 10 BTC which weren't so much back then. Now.. It's so much money LOOL. I wonder what these people from all the way back then who donated think of their donation now honestly.

I was also wondering who created this forum, and for some time thought "Founder" was just meaning the Founder of Bitcoin and not the actual founder of this forum lol. Until I realized

I don't know why users posting in this topic mentioning up different names because it's confusing ppl. I believe bitcointalk was created by Satoshi because that's what admin said so that should've ended the topic.

It should've been locked after the first post woke it up because it isn't necessary to repeat post Satoshi's name as bitcointalk creator.

One thing I so much learned about people is that they love controversies. If Satoshi could be the creator of Bitcoin when it wasn't popular and when people were not even noticing that someone was making any effort. How much more is the forum to back the creation up?

I believe and can't doubt that Satoshi created Bitcointalk, and he created it alongside Bitcoin for a reason. I believe it's for it to propagate the gospel of Bitcoin and the two were created in the same year. And specifically, Bitcointalk was created on the 22nd of November, 2009.

This can't be a coincidence.

God.

Some may call him “satoshi” around here but he has many other names:

God, the all knowing, Odin, the maker, the architect, the supreme coder, Zeus, Wotan etc…

The forum's a social meeting unit so it's attracting ppl from different backgrounds who've got different ideas. It's got high exaggeration raised over small questions which's leading to controversies. Users in the forum love it. We've been told who's created bitcointalk it's Satoshi that's what admin said but users keep saying other names.

Sorry guys if this is a dumb queston, but I was wondering who founded bitcointalk. I read somehere here that Satoshi created it, but im not sure if its a trustworthy source. Is btct made by Satoshi or a group of btc lovers?

The forum was created by Satoshi with his co workers. But Most people  are saying that Satoshi is a person while others are saying that they are in group and the real identity is unknown. But Satoshi was the one who spearheaded the creation of the forum and the digital currency which Bitcoin. This is the first thread created by Satoshi Welcome to the new Bitcoin forum! and you can also check his profile to see more things and threads he had created for us to read. This is Satoshi forum profile https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=3.

And the forum was mainly created to discuss Bitcoin and other cryptocurrency related stuffs. But Politics and Society, Economics and local boards were also created to accommodate everyone to participate.
