RadixTalk is an online forum community focused on discussing Radix. The forum was created by @0xMattia in 2021.
Overview
Topics on RadixTalk span from technical discussions about building on Radix to conversations about staking, governance, and the Radix ecosystem. The forum has sections for general chat, questions, projects, developers, validators, staking, governance, announcements, news, and site feedback.

History
RadixTalk was launched in 2021 shortly before the release of Radix's Alexandria testnet. The forum was created to provide a dedicated online space for the Radix community to come together and discuss the new protocol.
As Radix progressed through its testnet releases of Alexandria, Olympia, and Babylon, RadixTalk served as an important hub for developers, node runners, stakers, and other community members to collaborate. During the transition periods between testnet releases, the forum was instrumental in coordinating efforts among validators to migrate and upgrade.
In the lead up to Radix's mainnet launch in 2023, RadixTalk saw expanded discussions around staking, governance, dApp development, and other topics critical to the nascent network. While still a young forum, RadixTalk has quickly become a vital meeting place for Radix's decentralized, global community.
With Radix mainnet activated and additional growth on the horizon, the forum will likely continue to evolve as a key resource for community engagement, support, and coordination around the Radix network.
