Not that we host. There may be self hosted instances that I’m not aware of.

you can see we consistently hit 100k daily visits… in the last week we’ve had a bit of a decline though. sadness. we were very close to crossing the 4M pvs per month.

Lol. The OP edited the title from daily users to visits after I responded.

Lots of sites (including this one) get well in excess of 100k daily visits.

Actually, that’s completely untrue. ^ I’m talking page views.  
We do not get 100k+ unique user visits per day.

Semantics…

@8BIT as a crypto trader I think your community is informative and I think I can learn more in your forum 😀 .

I don’t think we even have a metric on the dashboard for unique visitors per day, which is a bit of an omission on our part.

Where unique visitor is defined as:

- For anon: unique IP
- For non-anon: user

We have user visits (which is non-anon)  
We have pageviews which double counts.

just a cooling period as it relates to the market (cryptocurrency and stuff). when there’s low volatility we have less folks around… but when things go crazy, we get all-time-highs. overall, we’re up and to the right though… and what’s even more crazy is that the forum hasn’t been around that long… it feels like only a few months since i penned this post:

> Just [15 days ago](https://john.do/bitcoin-pub/) I shared a new [Bitcoin and Cryptocurrency community site](http://thebitcoin.pub/) that my brother was putting together and it’s been an insane 15 days. The first day that the site was live it saw a grand total of 796 pageviews – not bad, not bad, right? I was impressed but I wasn’t even remotely prepared for what was to come. You see, the next day the site didn’t see double the number of pageviews or even triple. It didn’t see 5 or even 10X. The very next day the community site clocked in nearly 60,00…
