Before bitcointalk.org creation, the forum was hosted on forum.bitcoin.org

Read the old post made by theymos, for more information.

The forum was originally located at bitcoin.org/smf, then forum.bitcoin.org (hence the redirect), and finally bitcointalk.org.

Thanks!

Do we know the specific reason why this change occurred?

In simple words to keep both bitcoin and bitcointalk independent of each other.

Simply put after Satoshi three names took over different domains Sirius, Cobra and theymos.

As of 2020 theymos have full control of bitcointalk.org and if I’m not wrong bitcoin.org is still in control of Cobra.

Similar transition happened with bitcoin core project (wallet software) now the bitcoincoin core is hosted over https://bitcoincore.org/ and Bitcoin.org is suggesting many wallets and among those one is biticoincore.

In short bitcointalk.org is for discussion and rich history around bitcoin. No need to link it to bitcoin.org anyway.

Bitcoin.org is now more like an information site about “Bitcoin”.

And Bitcoincore about open source project maintaining bitcoin client software.
