But what I am curious about, especially from the old members here; that why the early adopters of Bitcoin and then active members of Bitcointalk have gone inactive now.

Many people left because the forum is overrun by spammers.

Let me take a random look at the latest post on the forum:

Need some time to make an assesment of your project also

It's already deleted by the bumpbot who posted it, and replaced by the next one.

It is true that this place has become infested with spammers and scammers. And frankly speaking, when around 2 years ago I came to Bitcointalk, I came for the sole reason of spamming my referral link, because I saw thousands of views on every topic!! My old account was then banned.
As for your reasoning about old members leaving because of this spam pond, I think it would be only partially true. Because after all, you guys are also here, Themyos is here and obviously you are no less than those early adopters. But still, if this is true, then which is the new hangout they have found. Is there really any place better than Bitcointalk to discuss about Bitcoin and cryptos in general? P.S. I have still not explored any other options beside Bitcointalk, so I have little knowledge about alternative platforms.

Being fair, I think the exodus of talent happened before the spammers moved in. It was more related to the overall attitude of members here fostering negativity. It became clear the goal of the average member was not to help or learn from the Bitcoin community any longer.

Negativity? As in negative trusts or more like preference to the hype side of cryptos rather than their social and technological side.
