Bitcoin Reddit sub reaches 8 million subscribers

The sub reached around 1,000,000 followers around covid (2020). Some of you may have noticed the decline in comments and engagement here, well since around 2023 the engagements dropped way below the thousands, and you are correct to notice a decrease in content quality too. The moderation in this sub is quite strict, but so is reddit in general now.

A lot of banned members must hang out in places like substack now? Or just don't risk posting.

I've noticed it's usually the same members posting the quality information posts these days, BitCypher for example. Even his post gets flagged sometimes.

I can only see data up to 2023, I believe reddit API changed then. There was 6million subs back then.

A lot of the top posts from the stats have had their accounts deleted, or have been suspended

cryptograffiti has been suspended - used to create Bitcoin Art
CoinCorner_Sam - used to post good content, hasn't posted in years
BashCo is still about and modding thankfully
CobraBTC still about
TopTreat2846 creator of whenlambo calculator was suspended recently
