Things could change as soon as we have a new ATH for BTC. That will be the moment FOMO is triggered and new investors frantically search for crypto information, enjoy discussing crypto, and become members of AltcoinsTalks. This has been true in the bullruns 2017 and 2021, and I believe it will be true again in 2025.
It is very true that bull run comes with a positive breeze of new intakes. The hype, the price increase drive people in. But this is not peculiar to only Altcoinstalks forum. It happens to all cryptocurrency forums, so the increase we are anticipating is general. Then, what we should do is compare the decline in this forum to other forums, if the visitors of other forums are declining as well, we shouldn't bother much. But if the decline is only affecting this forum, it is a course for concern.
Meanwhile, without statistics, I cannot note the difference in engagement here because whenever I login in, I see almost the same active people if not for someone like yahoo, who I know has been irregular here.
