Ever spotted that throwback from the Bitcoin forums back in 2010? There's a screenshot floating around showing what looks like one of the earliest promotional pushes in the BTC community. Makes you wonder—was this actually the first time someone tried to hype a project on those old boards? The early days of Bitcoin had a very different vibe compared to what we see in crypto marketing today. Back then, things were way more grassroots and organic. Seeing how promotion and community engagement evolved from those early forum days to now is pretty fascinating when you think about how the whole space matured.

Early forum matters, to put it simply, are the result of wild growth under information asymmetry. Looking back now, those "organic" promotions were just a temporary state before the incentive mechanisms were fully established—once the profit chains become clear, human nature takes over. From grassroots to the current state, what has changed is not the promotion methods, but the complexity of game-theoretic incentives.
