Forum holds more than 125 BTC.
Holy shit, I didn't realize it was that much. I actually thought it was much, much less--but then again, I don't pay much attention, since I never donated and it's none of my business what the forum does with its money.
You said part of that gets paid to the mods, but I thought I also heard that they get paid
very little and also that it depends on how much moderating they do. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong on either of those points. But jeez, with 125
BTC the forum could afford to pay for a ton of moderators even if it paid well.
And how much does it cost to upgrade the forum, anyway? With bitcoin at $55k or so, you'd think 125
BTC would more than cover it (but I won't complain about that either, since I'm kind of a fan of the way the forum is now).
I am pretty sure Forum at one point had earned/received around 6000 BTC, IIRC. One of the ref links:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=236325.0 The forum also has some amount of BCH and other forks I think? theymos said he will check some time in the future but don't know anything beyond that. Ref:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2044276.0Furthermore, 250 bitcoins were lost due to pariapan's sudden death unfortunately.
So if you want to get 62.5 BTC, better find out which motherfucker gained access to his/the forums coins.

spends most of the money of Epochtal
We are still paying to have epochtalk developed?
I would hope not. But who knows? not me. @theymos wink wink.
