Since I joined this Bitcointalk forum it has become a part of me, I visit it everyday as part of my daily routine. There are so much to learn and contribute to learning here, not only about Bitcoin and cryptocurrency but also about local and global economics, politics and society with off topics on matters that can add values to us. I especially love this our Nigerian local ( community ) board, a place to feel at home in the forum and interact on crypto and other relevant local news. The uniqueness of bitcointalk as an anonymous forum is that it's designed to make it's members to be free to express their views on discussions without being biased because you don't need to know any member personally. It is similar to Bitcoin that gives it's holders freedom and privacy as a decentralized digital cash.
Bitcoin has made it possible for us to have this active global forum community and it was created by the creator of Bitcoin itself Satoshi Nakamoto. Beyond this forum Bitcoin has also built a strong community of hodlers that are also called bitcoiners and the adoption is increasing. More people are embracing the freedom and privacy that comes with holding Bitcoin, even the ones that were skeptical about it in the past. Bitcoin has changed the narrative of money globally as a decentralized alternative to fiat and as a store of value for investment.
Most times exposure gets people to know better, i believe that in recent times most people have gotten some more exposure about bitcoin of which this forum has played a role in bringing this knowledge to people especially those who are active participants of the forum. personally I'm really happy and benefit from the knowledge the forum has been able to provide me with all this while i have been on the forum.
One very key and important factor that have have influenced most people to get into Bitcoin is the fact that Bitcoin avails them the privilege's of privacy of their finance and the absolute independence that comes with having their finance with bitcoin, bitcoin may even advance much better in the near future.
