How about having a BitcoinTalk Coin Project?

[BlackMambaPH]

Hi Admin, I don't know if this is a great idea and I don't know also if this is the right section to post like this topic.

Your thoughts having a bitcointalk coin, like if you have or holding in bitcointalk coin (defends of your holdings) you can advertise in this forum for free, something like that. Any idea?

Basically, a new altcoins or token that represents Bitcointalk where the user who holds the greatest amount of coin can advertise for free?
Theymos doesn't have any reasons to launch that said coin, the current state of Bitcointalk's advertisement are still usable. People bid for a spot in the forum as a banner.
Besides, creating and launching an altcoins are not gonna be cheap, and it is not guaranteed that everyone will like the new system.

Just keep it simple as it is

This is something I've actually thought about the possibility of and I think it could be a good idea. We could maybe reward certain users who make great contributions with payment in it or even give it out as rewards for reporting posts etc. It could also be used for micro-tipping amongst users. I think someone has already used the name bitcointalkcoin before though haha.

Theymos mentioned maybe doing some sort of ICO to build a seastead and maybe it could be involved with the funding of that: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2418909.msg24753848#msg24753848

Or possibly some other such worthwhile project like I suggested here:

Have you thought about maybe creating your own ddos protection service as from your concerns it seems like there'd be a gap in the market for a trusted product? I have no idea how much it would cost to create or run something like this but I'm sure it would be a worthy project people could get behind and would make for a decent ICO. Could even use the money we get from any potential new donator ranks we implement to invest in it. Something to consider at least.
