What do you think of tokens that did not update their Bitcointalk thread

[Rengga Jati]

First, they will update on BTT forum for introduction, announcement and also other programs held by the team and developers. However after that? I think normal that they have no update their BTT forum? But of course, we must search for the other sources such as their telegram group or discord. COmmonly I always use them.

It's a warning sign, if you take a look at the top coins in the market, they always have an update in their official thread, even some of them already have their own forum, they never neglect their announcement thread, because they knew investors will always go here for the latest updates and so is the new investors.

I've participated in so many bounty campaigns and invested on some tokens coming from ICO, but I notice that so many of these projects are not or stopped updating their Bitcointalk announcement thread but they are so active in their telegram channel.

Do you think this is good for a project in general, let's admit it, Bitcointalk topics always shows up in search engine like Google while on telegram you have to scroll a lot or wait for an answer and they are missing up some potential investors who first look on Bitcointalk for project that they want to invest in..

Firstly, if the project does not update information on the development and news of its progress on the forum, then at least it looks suspicious.  Because communication and discussion in this forum is a potential development of the project and the best place where you can find relevant news and learn something new.  There are really few projects that communicate with their user community.  Basically, after the ICO and the collection of money, the founders disappear, the project dies accordingly.  On the other hand, the telegrams are also a convenient and excellent place to communicate with the community and to cover news about the development and prospects for technological growth of the platform.  But still, the BitcoinTalk forum is the most advanced place for people united by one goal and idea, where it’s really interesting to communicate with smart people and find answers to many of your questions.  For me personally, this is the most important forum where I spend time about which I will never regret as uselessly lost.  And secondly, if the project does not have its own thread on the forum or has not even heard about it here, then I do not even consider it as promising.  Good luck to everyone and great profit.

There will be a lot of concern if they stopped doing this, and new investors that are looking for a new coin to invest should stay away from this kind of project, they owed their investors and supporters to update them about new development, but they only do this if they want more money by launching another IEO.

There are something important should be considered:
- OP updates: Without updates for too long is surely not a good signal.
- OP last active day: If OP has been inactively in the bitcointalk.org for too long, it is a very strong signal that OP and their team might abandoned their project.
- Updates of projects on their Github, websites, and so on.

I think it is a major part of marketing and those tokens are dead for me if they don't take their time to update bitcointalk thread.
But sometimes good projects don't need for promotion, like binance coin, I don't know if they have official thread, but their product is a quality one

Most of the succesful project I know usually stops updating their bitcointalk thread after few months. They will update their progress in either their own medium, blog or private group. Although updating the thread is definitely a good thing but it is optional. Not all of people will take a look into the thread anyway but their own private group which includes investors and member are surely full of interested people.

[knuckey]

if it has stopped and there is no update or interaction activity from their community, then surely the project will die or scam. there are many old coins that have announcement threads here, sometimes the op is no longer active in managing or updating the thread, but the thread is still crowded and is always visited by their community and interacts to share the latest information about the project itself.

[Chemcrier]

Most of these projects do not even own an announcement threads at all especially those projects that originated from Asia (Korea to be specific) but this didn't in any way hamper them from doing well and to be honest, I am not really a fan of announcement threads anyways and u don't think less of any project that does not update theirs.

[nicecrypto]

i won't see it as something to worry too much about although i would wish they have time to also update their announcement thread from time to time, there are lots of successful project who don't have time to make update on their ann thread except supporters of that project that will keep the thread going, if a project is legit update or non update of ann thread plays little role in it.

Bitcointalk is an important information channel, because this is a forum where many experienced members can discuss the project. A project needs to update their thread on bitcointalk. However, with some big projects when it was successful, it seems they just focus on media channels rather than bitcointalk.

[Novatech8]

Im less worried about it but its important,if the teams keep other social media channel like telegram,facebook,twitter and instagram alive its fine by me

[zenhu]

I think bitcointalk thread update is not really important, they can posted their new development to another platform that have more user than bitcointalk, like their telegram channel that must be have lot of people subscribed that, then they can update on their own site as well. Last, they have social media account to giving news regarding the project development.

if we focus on bitcointalk thread we will miss many important information.dev team usually update their projects in telegram announcement channel.they already hired group telegram to discuss and community with investors.this way more effective for all stakeholder.

for the long term, it will be very detrimental to the project. and not everyone has time to wait for an answer on the telegram. so they should also actively provide updates on their threads and social media. I personally also find it difficult to find updates on a project. because their thread has no latest updates.

[Snip]

If the project is successful and they really work, then updates should occur on all the information sources that are listed on their website. in the telegram, it is easy to write the news. but they should be remembered about new users who like Bitcointalk more than Telegram

I think the reasons why they ignored bitcointalk thread because:
1. Thread starter has no longer manage the project, if they hired another manager except their team.
2. Thread locked by global moderator to avoid junk posts.
3. Social media and website more flexible to giving an information and fast.
That are possible reasons why project after ICO ignored their announcement thread here.

[valuater]

It doesn't matter to me because it could be that they have a problem with bitcointalk (account banned) or maybe they prefer updating via telegram because it's easier, as long as they don't disappear and always update, I don't think it's a matter of concern.

Indeed, some projects do not renew their ANN Thread but are active in telegram, I don't think that is a problem if the ICO project is still running and growing. And for me personally while the project is still running and very active on telegram it is a good project, but if the project is also active in updating their ANN Thread it will be much better.

[ufaiz50]

In my opinion it will be easier to disseminate information using social media via twitter or telegram, because the display is more attractive and simple. Some projects pay their own managers to create threads on the bitcointalk, so it will be slower to communicate, so they use telegram groups.

most people seem too busy to update the bitcointalk thread or they prefer to update information on facebook twitter or otherwise, actually it is not a problem while they are still communicating on the telegram and providing clear information

[erikalui]

Many such projects have turned scam as if they keep updating their bitcointalk thread as if they can be regular on bitcointalk during the ICO/IEO and bounty programs and can earn enough money for the project, they should spare sometime to keep their thread active as well. I don't even think such projects are genuine who postpone their ICO blaming the market. They expect investors to wait till they relaunch themselves which is highly suspicious.
