With that said, I think we had a very successful year in this sub through the use of free speech and a censorship free environment where anyone is welcome to discuss different Bitcoin related topics. Obviously we had some troubles during the year with different challenges and obstacles, which I'm not sure how to overcome them when they happen (Sybil attacks, vote bot manipulation, and so on). A lot of these issues stem from the way the Reddit platform is and is out of our control. Overall, I'd say the year was eventful as usual and I for one am looking forward to the 2019 year. Onward!
