What are your favorite Bitcoin communities apart from Bitcointalk?

[Carlton Banks]

On here you get cheerleaders, but on there, actual focus on the trading (up or down).

Cheerleaders of what? Talk

When trading, it is important not to get emotionally attached to a position. r/bitcoinmarkets is pretty objective when discussing trading, the ups, downs, sideways moves, they want to make a profit. Whereas on the speculation subforum here, you either get people who are unshakably convinced we're going to the moon, or you get pumpers, trying to entice people into a move, so they can dump on them. The subreddits have fewer pumper-dumpers and tend to focus instead on TA and Fundamentals.

I see what you mean. I don't frequent the market discussions too much, the polarised landscape in the Speuclation sub here that you're referring to can be too painful at times (similar to the politics section, sadly). Part of the issue for me is that I find the whole TA* discipline a little lacking in credibility. It seems to me that the trends can be predicted in respect of events that effect the markets, but events themselves (of course) cannot be predicted, and so the discussions are often academic only (or only relevant for those running trading bots, trying to profit within small margins of potential). Perhaps r/bitcoinmarkets is worth checking out then, if there's less dreaming/trolling and more credible analysis (including my favourite marker of credibility, someone who's clearly a capable/shrewd analyst, and yet has the humility to say "don't know/outcome uncertain")

I agree that TA doesn't always work. But they do discuss other stuff, such as the effect of the devaluing yuan on bitcoin, macroeconomics, bitcoin fundamentals. Pumpers or people who are cheerleaders tend to get down-voted to oblivion, and usually leave, and the moderators are pretty good are ensuring valuable discussion takes place.

Actually I think I don't have time to browse for other communities. This community is enough for me for I know if anything worth attention appears somewhere it will be here soon too.

[Denker]

Do you frequent in any other Bitcoin community apart from bitcointalk?

Yeah, the crazy r/bitcoin community!
Bitcointalk and reddit is more than enough to read, communicate with each other and keep yourself updated.
Ok in addition to that I'm also following some Bitcoin and crypto enthusiasts on twitter as well, but that's it.

Yeah both of these are more then enough to collect latest and udpated information about bitcoin, and I spend most of the time of bitcointalk rather then wasting time somewhere else.

[Superbitzz]

i have no idea about bitcoin community apart from bitcointalk. i only believe on bitcoin talk and that is my favourite. i am pretty confidence that it will soon show it self.

It is same with me.. I have registration on almost all bitcoin related forums but don't have much time to give all. and browser everyone seperately. I don't even use facebook for many days but use bitcointalk everyday. I know that I could get every knowledge and information about bitcoin right here and don't need to go somewhere else.

Do you frequent in any other Bitcoin community apart from bitcointalk?

Yes, I'm active on local bitcoin forum in my country but only active to discuss bitcoin price and trading, and bitcoin price in my local exchange is very expensive than a west exchange.

[Labumi]

For me personally, I would much rather prefer to do and sharing, communication, and also seek knowledge about the BT Forum in the Bitcoin. for in the BT forum is very many people who are already experienced and also we can get science. Not only that in addition to get the science, we can also get the Bitcoin by following the event, quiz, or the sign campaign.

[hasiramasenju]

i'm pretty active in my local forum and they also talking about bitcoin news and how to earn bitcoin with many way and also the users give pretty accurate predictions for bitcoin and altcoins sometimes and i must say it does really help me and many benefits joining with them

[yesiam6]

Bitcointalk is the coin related forum i follow.
The big variety of altcoin sub threads and topics makes any other communities seem redundant to me

[gentlemand]

Despite its trading bent, r/bitcoinmarkets has the most balanced discussion I find. r/bitcoin and r/btc are both squealing fuckholes in their own special ways.

I often visit https://www.bitcoinforum.com/ although not as frequently visited bitcointalk but a lot of valuable information that you can be there. Thank you

[bitbunnny]

I like Bitcointalk and is quite enough for me. Actually I wasn't even aware of some other bitcoin community that would be worth of attention and joining.

Exactly this platform is the best to know something new about bitcoin, and with the existence of this forum we really don't need any other place to collect information related to bitcoin.

[prtty2gal2]

Not being a loyal ass dog here, but I'm really not in any other bitcoin community besides bitcointalk because I'm usually in the section of my local community here in bitcointalk. I tried many other forum but it doesn't appeal to me because most of them just have too much ads on them.

Do you frequent in any other Bitcoin community apart from bitcointalk?

I have visited many Bitcoin related community's but  bitcointalk is the best one others are inactive or have few members. Beside bitcointalk I like Reddit there have a bitcoin community there I found more news and discussion about bitcoin. Now I just use this two forums for getting information about bitcoin.
