We need a crypto board.

Reasons:
1) Money Talk is now spammed with crypto noobs posting threads for everything that pops into their mind.
2) Non crypto threads are now getting derailed by crypto being brought up
3) Several hundred posters have left TD in general for the crypto telegram chat (myself included). A majority of the time I used to spend on TD is now spent reading the telegram chat. A crypto board will bring a lot of people back.
4) Many people enjoy what Money Talk used to be: The smartest board on this site. It was fine when there was one large crypto thread. Now every low caliber poster trying to make a quick buck is flocking to the board. It is not what it used to be.
This is my view, as someone who is very much pro crypto. I can only imagine that people who couldn’t care less about crypto feel the same way.
ETA: As of this post, 17 of the threads on the front page of Money Talk are crypto related.

There is no way all those people understand cryptocurrencies.
I barely have a working knowledge of them and that is after doing a hash by hand myself. They don't know about public ledgers, most work, and where the bit coin actually comes from...

Really looking forward to the explanation for the deletion of the one good crypto thread on Money Talk, and how it solves any of the problems laid out above.
