Title: Bitcoin word showing upside down on every post
Post by: West man on April 01, 2016, 05:26:17 AM
What is going on? Just noticed this 20 minutes ago. On every post it is showing the word "bitcoin" upside down. Is anyone else seeing this?
I was reading the post about paypal buying up a company, that is when I noticed it but thought the OP just was having a play on the word. But now just noticed it is on every thread and every post.

Quite confusing if you don't know what is going on ;)

Are there any more hidden eastereggs except for uᴉoɔʇᴉq, Lightcoin and Catecoin? Would be fun to get a list of everything they put in there!

EDIT: Seems like Ripple, Athereum is also adjusted.

It is Theymos prank for April Fools' Day bit.coin everywhere on the forum is reversed upside down. Some altcoin names too.
It most likely will be present only today, so you can take a break if this confuse you.

NOTE: Reverse of word BITCOIN can be avoided if you write it in all capital letters.

BTC bitcoin
LTC litecoin
DOGE dogecoin
ETH ethereum
Dash-coin dash
peer-coin peercoin

This is some that I found by trying some of coins' name that i can recall. Not all works, though, digibyte is still digibyte, so I think only certain popular and most discussed coin being pranked. Oh, so much fun.

my fav is b i t c o i n s   as moondollars
You mean like this thread:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1303982.0

When did you first hear about moon dollars.
This just makes it more fun to see how many people fall for this and actually write "moon-dollars" in their responses.  :D

Moondollars was great. The upside down b i t c o i n word is giving me an headache tho. I think im just going to spend my break at work browsing the web and not posting today, I just can't deal with this tho, my mind is trying constantly to guess what the correct words are and wondering if what im reading is the original post or some of the stuff got replaced by some other easter egg words.

I think it's kind of a cool prank, and I'm one who usually thinks April fool's day jokes are just stupid.  I like a little chaos now and then.

Wow....I'm so relieved!  I was beginning to think my brain cell finally popped!  I looked everywhere for the "moondollar" ANN because I didn't want to miss out on the investment opportunity....I was wondering what all the moondollar hype was about and didn't want to miss the rocket on another good profit taking venture!  LOL There are a few "mooncoin" ANN's if anyone is wondering.

How many people are already thinking there computer is tripping. Was already wondering how people could do that on this forum. Almost for sure they will remove it after tomorrow.

This is something new, something awesome after that "hodl" thing that got famous by someone's mistake...
Needed something fresh, and Bitcoins' word is looking awesome being upside down on every post, I think there is something done by the admins of the forum regarding this...
