Hi theymos, I wanted to open this public thread just to ask you if it is possible to post the current forum finances. Basically a thread/update like this : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=780707.0Thanks for the attention.

Nothing happens?
Another interesting thing could be to eximate the total value of transactions bitcoinche pass through Bitcointalk, understood as the set of BTC paid to members for campaigns + the total trade that takes place between the various marketplace sections (lendig, good, good digital etc), also considering the various local sections. I think you will reach the impressive amounts, perhaps 1000-2000 btc day. What do you think?

1000-2000 BTC is too high. Drop that down to a way lower amount. I'd estimate even something like 1 to 50 on a daily basis, but it's all conditional. Usually, physical coin sales/auctions would increase that marginally as well as payment dates when all of the campaigns collectively send bitcoins. Unfortunately, you wouldn't be able to calculate accurately due to the fact that YoBit isn't transparent with payments.
I'd also be interested in seeing the finances. Not sure if it's been posted (I searched and couldn't find anything) but are the 2014 finances public? If they aren't, and this request is fulfilled, will that year's finances be included?

Wow, that's a lot of expenses. Was that calculated using the current price of bitcoin at the time that you paid those? They were paid in bitcoins, right?
|
Trusted an exchange that climbed to the top 3 in just under 2 years with your money? you are fucking stupid.

Yes, it's the value at the time of the transaction. All income and most expenses were paid in BTC.

I see that Forum project software cost $ 1,151,595.23 in 2014. this means that in 2016 the cost to keep the forum will be higher. As the forum intend to pay many expenses this year? Who are the developers forum? are members of the staff or theymos program alone? Excuse me for asking so many questions I'm just curious.

You know looking at the simple design of this forum, it is almost hard to believe that a sum as large as that flows through on a daily basis.

Yes. AFAIK most of the money for expenses come from old donations that the forum has had for several years. I see that Forum project software cost $ 1,151,595.23 in 2014. this means that in 2016 the cost to keep the forum will be higher.
As the forum intend to pay many expenses this year?
Who are the developers forum? are members of the staff or theymos program alone?
Excuse me for asking so many questions I'm just curious.
Err, why do you say that the cost to keep the forum will be higher? Once the software is done, there will be no need to spend any money on Forum Software. You know looking at the simple design of this forum, it is almost hard to believe that a sum as large as that flows through on a daily basis.
What does the design of the forum have to do with the amount of money that the forum makes and spends? I'll tell you: NOTHING!! Please stop spamming

I'll never know why so many people are interested in the forum finances, how money gets spent etc, especially if they've never donated anything.
Odd.

I think it's just interesting to see what kind of expenses and income a forum of this size has. I was quite surprised to see that the forum made ~ 645 BTC (at current prices) from ads during 2015, I thought that ads would have brought in a lot less money.
On a different note, I remember that the forum used to be sponsored by PIA, and PIA hosted Bitcointalk. I don't see a note at the bottom of pages on the website anymore stating that PIA sponsors the forums - has this deal ended? If so, I'd be curious as to what the estimated annual cost is to host these forums. I don't imagine it would be too cheap for a website this size.

He said it here. Though the ad at the bottom didn't get removed until months later.

I was under the impression that the forum still had ties with PIA in the form of their hosting sponsorship. A little off-topic, but any idea why the sponsorship deal was cancelled? IIRC a few months back there was some discussion as to how much control theymos had over the Bitcointalk servers (could he truly secure them if PIA hosted the servers?) but I think that discussion was just among the community here and theymos didn't chime in.
