Recently, I came over a Bitcoin advertisement from Bitcointalk (theymos has enabled some advertisements for Bitcoin itself) but it seems some statements are a bit outdated.
For example, one advertisement says Bitcoin is still beta software and it looks like more like a statement from a Bitcoin critic:
Personally, I would not expect such a statement in a Bitcoin forum because after 15 years, Bitcoin is very proven and not really beta software anymore.
Maybe it's time to remove some advertisement slogans once getting outdated?
These are not advertisements, they are factoids, which as the name implies are some snippets of information and good-to-know shit about bitcoin and blockchain, these days except for a few of those timeless advices these are regarded by many as relics of a decade old forum board, which we keep for sentimental purposes (I think, don't quote me on that one).
So while these things are outdated, at least some of them I think, the thing is that they won't go anywhere, they don't harm anyone anyway, and at the end of the day, it's really cool having some sort of piece of the past actively being put out as some sort of easter egg every now and again when you make a post (far as I know there is a certain rarity to these things, not sure what the exact percentage is but if I'm not mistaken it's somewhere in the ballpark of 9-20 percent)
So yeah, next time you see these factoids instead of focusing on how outdated they are, perhaps look at it as something that shows you this forum and this industry stood the test and challenges of time, and became stronger than ever.
