- why your decision to be active here was in favor of Bitcointalk
It was never a choice between bitcointalk or some other platform. I first was introduced to Bitcointalk and at that time had never been on any other crypto platform, I instantly found it to be one of the most useful forums; the more time I spent active here the more usefulness I found for btt.
• It has improved my knowledge of bitcoin a lot. I came it with zero background knowledge and reading through the threads and replies of more experienced members, I was able to learn a thing or two.
• I have been able to network with Bitcoin enthusiasts from around the world.
• All of the rich Bitcoin history you find around (10,000
BTC for 2 pizzas or the famous 'HODL' reference) originated here on the forum.
Along the line, I have discovered some more crypto platforms and actually registered on some of them. Some have been terrible, some better than the others, but no one has come close to btt for me.
also, if I remember correctly a lot of posts that were posted here are being posted there too since I remember some thread talking about the rampant plagiarism that was happening in cryptotalk.
