Hey Steemians
Have you ever wondered where you can get the best gossips and latest news and talk that goes around the crypto world ?
My no. 1 source is from BITCOINTALK.ORG
In this forum, you will see a lot of contribution from crypto enthusiast and you can practically find almost anything related to crypto, from trading to mining and even there is a marketspace where you are able to purchase services/goods using your BTC.
Because its just a forum board, there is no guarantee on any services or goods will arrive. I would guess that you would require to do your own due diligence prior to purchasing any goods.
I've managed to purchase a few items here before mostly towards licenses & vouchers which I have had my share of getting conned and also a few successful trades.
Make sure you read all the reviews by highly reputable people normally ranked Heroes or Legendary before committing into a sale.
This forum is also a great place to research any ICO's which you are thinking of investing in. Its a great place to start apart from joining the Telegrams of the ICO and evaluating the credibility of the team.
Summary
Its a forum which is super active and engage in. If you create your account, do take your time to build up your credibility as its great place to ask your questions and also to learn more about crypto / blockchain.
