Hoping to see a bitcointalk token sooner

[Jackl87]

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.

Why would we need a token as a own payment of service? As far as i know the only thing that you can buy on this forum are the copper member ranks and some ad space. I don't really think this is enough to justify the generation of an own token. I mean a token is generated pretty quickly nowadays but if there are not enough use cases for that token i don't see it survive very long, everyone could just go and create an bitcointalk token on ETH, BSC or waves or whereever they like that would be not the problem. The hard part is to create a ecosystem for this token in order to make sure that this token will be actively needed and therefore also traded. A dead token that no one uses isn't benefiting anyone.

I can't imagine that this forum will having its own token or coin just like other altcoins because what will be their project if it wll planning to make it true ? giving token to those who contributing in this forum ? its not kind of good idea because gaining merit points was so hard then you thinking having bitcointalk coins for your work is just easy? for me its not really not.

This forum doesn't need any token, it already has Bitcoin. Satoshi made Bitcoin on this forum and he discussed it with all forum members at that moment. So, why we should have another token? Bitcoin is more than enough to have, it even becomes the best crypto coin ever. Having another coin or token, looks like a greedy plan. People will think that this forum becomes to be too commercial and only focuses on earning money.

right, the main purpose of this forum I think is for cryptocurrency lovers, so it doesn't need to be commercialized. From the start, this forum has helped many beginners or experienced people to exchange knowledge and developments about cryptocurrencies. so this is just a place to accommodate everything that has to do with cryptocurrencies, and satoshi himself created this forum of course to support the development of crypto and bitcoin adoption

Most long time posters or mods in this site must have a fortune already so there is no motivation for them to create a bitcointalk token. The only one want to create it for profit is new users which I don't think they have any reputation to call people to invest in their coin.

I don't remember the founding date of this forum but since the day I got the job as well as doing part-time work on the airdrop, this forum has been a huge conference for bitcoin and crypto fans as a lot of projects are posted here, count on projects and success, traffic and advertising fees have been a tremendous amount of wealth for the founders. You are right the level of work is more as well as the bright path is too great for them to retire early, the community has been extremely grateful to them and don't need a token in honor, they need a break

the token that comes from this forum is Bitcoin, the founder of this forum is Satoshi...

satoshi founded this forum as a learning place about Bitcoin that he/she created, so created altcoins this forum will never happen. creating another altcoin only adds more 'shit' to the market lol

[haleema]

I think you are right, bitcoin is out of range of newbies.As i see in BSCscan someone create a token name mini bitcoin.
Maybe after some time we will see a bitcoin token.

You can see tokens like https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/wrapped-bitcoin/ and I didn't expect the forum to create a new altcoin because Bitcoin is a coin created by satoshi.

Seems like you knew I was going to say bitcoin already and that’s why you said that. But I’m still going to say that: having a token for the bitcointalk.org forum will be unnecessary, since this forum was created solely for bitcoin at first, before they later decided to have other subsections that are dedicated to altcoins. So, bitcoin itself is already like the token/coin for this forum, and yes not everyone can afford to buy one bitcoin, but there is no law that says you must buy one bitcoin, you can buy it in fractions, depending on how much you have and still make profit from it.

And I don’t know what services you’re talking about, there are lots of altcoins that are fast for transactions and cheap, that you can use for whatever services you want to use them for (Tron is a good example, and there are many others).

There is a common misconception that in order to own a Bitcoin, you need to buy one whole Bitcoin. In fact, you can buy parts of one whole Bitcoin. Think of it like pizza. You can buy a whole pizza pan (or two, or five), but you can also buy a slice of pizza if you want to buy a smaller batch.

Bitcoin units follow the International System of Units, a global standard of measurement that has been in use for centuries. The most commonly used unit is “Bitcoin”, but sometimes it is also referred to as bit, satoshi and so on. Basically, Bitcoin is just like any other local (fiat) currency. Currencies are broken down into parts: pounds are broken down into pence, dollars and euros are broken down into cents, and so on. One Bitcoin is divided into 1,000 millibitcoins (mBTC), 1,000,000 microbitcoins (μBTC), or 100,000,000 satoshi. Currently, most Bitcoin platforms - including Luno - only use Bitcoin as a unit of measurement: for example 1 BTC, 0.0023 BTC and so on.

Exchanges allow you to buy crypto assets such as Bitcoin for a certain amount according to your local currency. So if you want to exchange $1000 and the price of one Bitcoin is $10,000, you will get 0.1 Bitcoin. Or in other words 10 million satoshi, if you want to feel richer. Instead, you can list the specific amount of crypto assets you want to buy - and you will be given the price you need to pay in your local currency.

The price of Bitcoin has been on the rise over the past few years. With the increase in the value of one Bitcoin, people began to use smaller units for their daily transactions. By breaking it down into smaller units, Bitcoin can still be used even if the price goes up. If Bitcoins were nearly worthless, people could use hundreds or even thousands of Bitcoins in a transaction. For now, the default is to use small units.

I guess it is already commercialized, look at how many people here have signatures right now, and how many of them got paid for it as well (yes including me), as you can see it is already commercialized. What it could do is actually give people tokens for posting, and the price would be decided by the buyers, which will be companies who do signature campaigns, at that point only the token will be allowed and companies would have to buy that token to distribute to people, while they buy, posters would sell, and there would be a market for it. Don't get me wrong I am not saying this is a good idea or a bad idea, all I am saying is that it is an idea that already exists and could be implemented with a token which is awesome. This is why I believe it should not be done but if it were to be done then it wouldn't be really that shocking or brand new idea neither.

I think everyone can afford to buy bitcoins because the market doesn't oblige to buy 1 bitcoin. Regarding bitcointalk tokens I don't think there will ever be because I don't think there will be any use, here just focus on getting crypto information and doing some opinion

Why not fair this is Bitcoin talk a discussion about Bitcoin where the main coin that is being promoted is Bitcoin, there's no need for a new coin or token, Bitcoin is still the strongest coin in the market if the admin will going to create a new one, there will be a lot of effort promoting it and they will spend money for launching it in the market when they already have one and it's the number one coin in the market.

[finaleshot2016]

Having a bitcointalk token is pointless because if you want to pay something, you'll use the commonly used crypto. The market will achieve it at the start because all of the required cap for the market cap has already been completed. I really like the idea of having a token, and I could profit from it if the admin and mod created it, but as previously stated, the usecase is very important in crypto to make it more valuable.

[Rakeshten]

I don't think there should be an alternative coin. BTC is good and It is being used in this forum. There is no many rewards or any transaction system which needs its own coin. So I think BTC is enough for rewards.

[zasad@]

What's the point of a token for a forum?
If bitcointalk decides to become a decentralized organization and use this token to manage the community and assign users to leadership positions, then this is the solution.
Many blockchains such as Cosmos already have ready-made Governance modules. In a couple of years, great solutions will appear on the market.

''Please don't say bitcoin.' at this time, not everyone can afford to buy bitcoin now, true for people who have no investment intentions, but; actually you can buy without having to buy one piece but you can buy a third of one, because buying BTC it doesn't have to be a single chip using digital numbers
And again this Forum created by Satoshi shows the highest respect to the creators of the first cryptocurrency is BTC,
so maybe you have a plan to replace other than BTC the largest coin, or a discussion forum with one token that you have,,, or you have prepared other coins besides BTC,
we are now in the Bitcoin forum, so using bitcoin as a popular currency in the forum is enough

[Pom_bensin]

unthinkable for bitcointalk to create a token. i see that the bitcointalk market is bigger than a token. even without tokens bitcointalk already has a large member population and has become one of the best forums in crypto. so maybe it's impossible if bitcointalk create a token

[irsada]

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.
