The point is that people can share their knowledge and their thoughts about different topics.
It's clear that people come here because of bitcoin, and at this point I'm struggling to understand the point of territories. It can be seen as a mere speculative product offered by SN.
Why is it clear that people come here because of Bitcoin?
Nowhere is it said that SN is an exclusive Bitcoin forum. Read the definition SN founders wrote:
"Stacker News is a forum (like Reddit or Hacker News) where you can earn sats for creating or curating content. Rather than collecting “upvotes” that are not redeemable or transferable on Reddit or Hacker News, on Stacker News you can earn sats." In Reddit, you have "communities", here you have "territories".
For me, that's the beauty of SN: Everyone can share his knowledge in the territory (topic) he knows well and can learn from others who are experts in other territories.
Am I wrong @k00b, @kr, @ek?

I don't!
I like bitcoin, I like giving and receiving zaps but I don't read or post many things on the bitcoin territory. I rarely select it on the dropdown menu. Most of the things I read about bitcoin here come from the home page (hot & top).
My favorite (active) territories are: meta, devs, builders, linux and a few more. I also liked the now archived christianity territory that was founded by @jimmysong

I thought the post is only for the founders.

At all! It was more to rise awareness of what @Taft mentioned above. Your and anyone else opinion is more than welcome
