Who's going to pay for those ads?

I seriously don't know Loyce. I mean, I understand your point, but don't you agree that it's a problem? It's probably because of the profit margins. To be able to pay for ads, you need to have income or at least a solid revenue.

Others who know, likely do not see value, because, the number of overall visitors to this forum per day is too poor.

Hi! Are you sure about that? I mean, I don't know how many visitors this forum has per day. Do you?

That's actually a damn good question--and I think the bigger bitcoin "projects" like hardware wallets don't need to advertise on a discussion forum, which honestly seems like an outdated method of drumming up business. 

Hi! Why do you think so? I mean, I would definitely be interested in "promoting" (with or without money) a good hardware device. I mean, it would give a lot of newbies a general guidance that hardware wallets are better than many other solutions. It would be better for the community, I don't know if you agree.

Bitcointalk, for as long as I've been here, has been full of gamblers and gambling is and has been one of the biggest uses of bitcoin I know of, aside from the dark web (and I don't even know what the stats are on that).  I assume that's why there have been so many gambling-related signature campaigns.  They might rake in a lot of cash, but I think compared to other businesses they're fairly small-time and don't have to shell out enormous amounts of money to hire a bunch of forum posters.  Like I said, good question you're asking here.  After the caffeine hits my bloodstream perhaps I might give it some more thought.

Haha, you are more than welcome to let caffeine do its work and come back later.
But when you do, please keep in mind that even from a philosophical point of view, casinos make you lose money whereas bitcoin makes your fiat more valuable.

Even though there are social networks today, with a lot of dynamism, here is still the forum that Satoshi created, here there are still discussions that are very relevant to BTC, there are excellent users, it is a very good source of information that is difficult to find on other pages

I agree, but I am sure that it's because we are romantic bitcoin users. Obviously I posted this thread because I believe bitcoin projects can be efficiently advertised here, but many people say social media are better for this purpose. I don't own any social media, so I can't tell...
