Hoping to see a bitcointalk token sooner

[Reatim]

This is the birthplace of crypto and many people learnt alot from here. is it not fair for this platform to get a token that can be traded in the market. other content management platform has then own crypto that are been traded and use as a means of rewards to their users.
please don't say bitcoin. currently, not everyone can afford bitcoin now. we need an altcoin as an alternative token here for payment of service.

so what is the name Bitcoin attached from this forum? so the coin must be name " Bitcointalk Token?" what the Heck mate .

aren't you contented with thousand currencies listed in the market and you clearly wanted to add another one?

lol stop fooling yourself , Bitcointalk has more than enough to expect for this.

This forum will stop being a Bitcoin forum and promote a token of its own, you should check how this forum started and who is the original owner Satoshi Nakamoto is the real owner of this forum
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitcointalk

Bitcointalk is an Internet forum dedicated to the discussion of bitcoin, blockchain technology and cryptocurrency. The forum was initially created by Satoshi Nakamoto, the pseudonymous inventor of Bitcoin in November 2009

We are honoring his work by continuing this forum and creating topics dedicated to Bitcoin and other cryptocurrency, there is no need to for the admin to create a new token

[speedforce]

This has been discussed several times in this forum, maybe if you already have a strong community, it is not impossible that the tokens intended will survive, especially since this forum supports these tokens, but unfortunately it will not be realized easily because the purpose of this forum was created for bitcoin.

Agreed, also if the token that built  is just for payment purpose, using Bitcoin as Bitcointalk is Bitcoin forum is more reasonable.
Creating a forum token could be useless, if its have no important purpose as a background.

[letyouearn]

They will hardly ever do something like this, they just don't need it I think. The forum is strongly bound to Bitcoin and will continue to develop the idea. Create your own token and promote it 

[CryptoATM]

I'm so against this, this forum as no reason to introduce own token cos there is zero utility to back it up, there are few forums that have tokens and the tanked down alot due to lack of demand, oh yes why would there be any reason for demand? None

[Marykeller]

If ever we should have our token for this forum, who's gonna fund the making of the btt coin? What will be the purpose of it? There are things to put into considerations before implementing a token for this forum. There are thousands of altcoin existing and it is already promoted in this forum by different people. Creating a btt coin makes no sense cos it will be difficult to be vested upon like other altcoins

[Lubang Bawah]

If bitcointalk makes tokens or coins then I'm optimistic that I can rank in the top 25, this forum has loyal members and what makes cryptocurrencies is this forum, and we really look forward to the presence of BTT tokens or coins so we can trade BTT in the market.

I thought having bitcoin is one of the purposes the bitcointalk forum exists in the first first?? Moving on to create the bitcointalk token is more likely to be created to benefit the devs and really not have a purpose besides being a speculative type of token. Tbh this is not necessary to have, bitcoin is enough.

[Maestro75]

I think of the Bitcointalk Token as the merit that we have.

It should not be as merit. It should be something more tangible. Merit can not be traded for cash in reality. A bitcointalk token should be a real token like those others listed and traded on exchanges. I believe the token will be a hit if it ever gets out. Its supply should be made not to be surplus. Anything around the 21 million total supply which bitcoin has or less should be ok.

please don't say bitcoin. currently, not everyone can afford bitcoin now. we need an altcoin as an alternative token here for payment of service.

Everyone could afford a piece of Bitcoin we don't actually need to own a whole piece or send a whole piece of Bitcoin so I don't see any problem with it.
I think I would love the idea if it would be what all of the bounties would pay their hunters.
It would ensure that the hunters would get what has been promised to them and the bounty manager should also hold at least half of the allocated reward so if anything happens the hunter would still get paid for their work.

The OP wasn't talking about paying Bounty Hunters even though I support your argument there but rather he was talking about this platform, Bitcointalk.org which I am indifferent about but there will be some good thoughts going into it as to what will the token be used for within the forum other than trading it on exchanges like other tokens.

[Adbitco]

Use case yet to be created? What kind of? So, you people are talking about a token which is not having a use case still? Then what is the purpose of such token? Only speculative purposes? I do not think this will work. A token or coin must be created to solve a problem by providing a solution and not in the manner of fund rising reason alone.

This way I believe there will be no need of going for creating a token specialized for this forum. If any one of us, will be coming up with proper reason for having such a token, then I will agree to have without any hesitations.

Well, don't you think those token can be used to
1. Pay Evil fee
2. Buy Copper member
3. Developing an APP
4. Maybe can be used for an Appeal ( for a genuine reasons only)
5. Maintain the Forum
6. Can be used as token to pay managers
7. Can be traded in the exchange, ect.
8. Maybe for a transparency between project / hunters( It could be used to pay Hunters, instead of project owners paying their native currencies at last that turns to be scammed).

I think we can see a lot of tokens and coins in the "Altcoins (token)" sub-forum section.
If you mean a forum-specific figurehead, I'm sure there are no plans for forum leaders to make one yet.
This is because the bitcointalk forum is owned by Satoshi Nakamoto which means the symbol of bitcointalk is bitcoin itself as a hallmark coin of the forum.
If there is another coin made for the hallmark of the forum I'm sure it will replace the satoshi nakamoto icon on this forum.

i am agree with your opinion , since beginning this forum represent bitcoin not altcoin or even bitcointalk token so we must keep netrality and dont create any token rellated bitcointalk. let this forum be a good place for cryptocurrency discussion and developtment so , the main goal Nakamoto creating bitcoin could achieved.

[Kimonoe]

indeed we should not change the main purpose of bitcointalk created by satoshi, where this forum is a means of discussion and learning to socialize to people around the world about cryptocurrencies and bitcoin. so it doesn't feel right to have your own token, of course the discussion is not as neutral as it is today, where all things about crypto and its development can be found here. cryptocurrency education is the purpose of this forum, so that everyone around the world can interact here. bitcointalk is for coins and all altcoins, not for one token only

[cryptoaddictchie]

The only thing that circulate here in forum is merits and that due to quality posting and good post of users. If forum would have a token it would correspond to the merit system  but that would make the merits a buy and sell token entity where contradicts to the forum rule which isnt allowed right? I think forum is better without any affiliation on trading cause it might be abuse or take advantage from some who can gain merits and those who badly wanting to have it for rank purposes.

Bitcoin is currently still at a "bargain" price to buy, you can buy more or less depending on the capital flow you have.  Bitcointalk has been supporting free inputs like altcoin promotion campaigns there, I'm curious what do you need another altcoin with unique bitcointalk features for?  bitcointalk is giving everyone all the freedom here, i think creating an altcoin just for dependence, selfishness and i think your hope is not going to happen.

[StormHawk]

What will be the token usefulness? This is a forum where information are been shared and yes we do have a marketplace on here but holding a forum token won't do much greatness compare to projects that provide secured smart contract and other, Bitcoin talk forum don't need token.

[retreat]

AFAIK, Bitcoin is a coin raised from this forum, why do we need other crypto assets in the form of tokens? creating a new token (eg bitcointalk token) will only make this forum not much different from other forums such as altcoinstalks, and I'm sure this will never be allowed even if you submit it in the meta section!

I do not think that this proposal will be supported. 

The founder of the Bitcointalk forum is Satoshi Nakamoto (creator of the first cryptocurrency - Bitcoin).  In 2010, Satoshi Nakamoto disappeared, handing over the management of the forum to other people. 

Today's administrators of the Bitcointalk forum are bitcoin fans.  They do not deny the value of other cryptocurrencies, but they do not encourage them either. 

As far as I know, the only coin they have singled out among the rest of the altcoins is Green (a very technological coin with increased anonymity and privacy).  But the main coin on the forum is bitcoin.  It is Bitcoin that is used to pay for all services on the forum. 

As far as I know, the creation of the Bitcointalk forum token has never been declared as a goal.  The Bitcointalk forum is pretty conservative in this regard. 

It will not issue a forum token, NFT, or any similar asset.  Particularly due to potential regulatory issues.  IMHO.

[doctor877]

I don't think there is need for it, this platform has consistently been offering people many opportunities in various forms, this should be enough. This is not a random platform where they can just decide to follow the usual trends or any trend that's on point. This was not the goal for creating this forum. I believe it will cause alot of distractions.
