Even with the large number of Bitcoin lovers and investors 6 years ago, still, not all of them were on the forum. I know that you are thinking that there should be more users on the forum now because of how the number of bitcoinist has increased but people are learning about Bitcoin in other articles online. If this forum was the only source that can teach about Bitcoin, then you will see more people here. Even if the traffic reduced from how it used to be before, the forum is still a great place filled with members that has wisdom of Bitcoin.
