Monthly comparison



It is bit disappointing to see the last month's stats because we have been on the progressive side for the last 5 months but on this one the activity almost dropped 50% which is a huge downturn. Also it feels like we have not much to talk about crypto in our country, maybe we should also start discussing the geopolitcal events and their effects on our country.

Yeah, I was also kinda inactive basically and went overboard in gambling section because of women wc and then india qualifying for the knockouts.

Hopefully I'll back to usual posting habits. Political ranting wali thread toh sahi chal Rahi abhi, organic growth hai wahan.

It is good to see some new members or the old era newbies become active but we ran out of topics to discuss.

Also, let's take a moment to brainstorm ideas to widen our discussion that might be a good boost towards the engagement of our board.

That's true. There are no new topics to discuss here and we can see the same old discussions made by the same old people who have been around here for a while. Yes, there are a lot of new people showing interest here but that is not really helping us with new topics. I hope to see new exciting topics here which will eventually increase the number of post counts and also thinking it can increase the active users around here.

I wonder if is it okay to start of subject topics here to gain engagement or should it be only related to cryptos?

I keep on checking our local board to see if there's anything interesting posted but don't really find much. I also can't deny the fact that the ongoing subjects are quite interesting and we have nice engagement going on in Indian Econ, Politics,... topic but that's the only topic that is most active here.

Since we already have political and economics related thread in the main board then I guess it is okay to start topics of similar kind but if we go too away from money part then it is most likely will be discussed in the off topic section because we have a dedicated off topic section to discuss that are completely irrelevant to cryptos such as movies.

We can try to keep the discussions in that thread only. Opening more threads in Offtopic, means more places to post but we have to check more than one place for that.

Dont forget that in one message we can put one line about crypto, one line about the recent movie you like and one line on some random rant.

If you find some news worth sharing, make a new thread for it and we can talk about it there for a few pages after which it will dive into the old posts.

We can use that thread for political discussions and any news that is not related to crypto but we can also create separate threads for discussion purposes that can help to us to follow the discussion instead of getting cluttered with all those things. Also I feel having separate topics might help with numbers.

I kinda agree to this and feel the same way. Discussion related economics and other non-crypto discussions can stay in that thread.
If someone has found a good topic related to crypto to discuss then they can create a separate topic so that others can follow the same and it will show the discussion related to that same subject.
I suggest people to start reading more over the internet which will give us ideas to open discussions in our Indian board.
We can also follow what other local boards are doing and try to do the same here because nothing exciting is really happening with crypto in India.

I have been checking Nigeria local board where they mostly use English too and brought general related crypto topics into their particular local board which kind of boosted their engagement but I am not sure we have enough users to recreate such. If we have more newbies then we also can try doing that and starts discussing things like wallet security, importance of seed phrases, how to not get phished,etc.

Yeah, makes sense. So that is something that will be improved only with time.
We do see a slight increase in the number of active people in the Indian board.
Now that we do have a merit source, may be continuous posting will increase number of active posters in this board as well.
Only time will tell how things will go in this board.
