I am a newbie, having just registered, but I've been reading and checking this forum since last year, as many new platforms and social media sites have emerged for cryptocurrency. Is Bitcointalk still relevant, and how long will it remain relevant?
If you search, then you will find a lot of crypto platforms that have come and gone as well. But Bitcointalk is the very oldest Bitcoin community. If you really read the discussion of the forum, then definitely you will find it relevant. How long do you feel Bitcoin will exist? Until Bitcoin exists, the forum will be relevant. Because the forum was created by Satoshi, though it was later teleported to the new domain, the goal was to learn and discuss Bitcoin.
The goal of the forum hasn't changed; hence, it's still relevant. You will find updated information about Bitcoin on this forum. Not only Bitcoin, but a lot of altcoin discussion or announcement threads exist here from which you can learn a lot of things. So I can assure the forum will exist and be relevant as long as crypto exists. Even if Theymos wants to shut down, we can teleport to new domains since a couple of users archived the data.
