The Bitcoin Forum is a website meant to host free discussion of Bitcoin and related topics. It is operated as a service to the community, and all profit is reinvested into the forum and the community. It was started in 2009 by Satoshi Nakamoto, the original creator of Bitcoin. It is now managed by Michael Marquardt (theymos), Martti Malmi (Sirius), and Stefan Thomas (justmoon). Donated funds are managed by theymos.

It actually feels so weird knowing how when they first opened these Donations they were 50 BTC and 10 BTC which weren't so much back then. Now.. It's so much money LOOL. I wonder what these people from all the way back then who donated think of their donation now honestly.

I was also wondering who created this forum, and for some time thought "Founder" was just meaning the Founder of Bitcoin and not the actual founder of this forum lol. Until I realized
