First, want to say this was an excellent idea Theymos and if you need someone to grow this KYC process further (for maximum exposure), I'm your man. Time to rid the plague of all the corrupted assholes and scammers; having 100% transparency in crypto is a brilliant idea.  

Why should you submit it? It's like everything you do in life, you prove who you are and your good intentions? Fuck privacy and all you shady characters who linger on these forums for nothing more than profits. This is the real world. Uncle Sam spies on you daily, there's nothing that you can do to resist this new era.

You're a high ranked member here and as a Hero Member you must've spent at least two years in this forum. But it's really amusing that you still haven't come in terms with the fact that Theymos likes to pull a prank every April 1st. Well, I hope you submitted your credit card details too and also submitted your private keys to that Darkstar thread here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5126721.0

THe prank was really good..i think Theymos nailed it,.. but in fact, seriously this would be something to consider, i think that a KYC in bitcointalk will save us from scammers/spammers.. much more than the merit system for example!

Love it!

Imagine taking this thread seriously, even after knowing this is an April fools joke. I recommend viewing people's profiles and clicking that April Fool's verification (above their image) to understand that they are partaking in the event.

I admit i really fall for this. I wasn't aware it was april fools day.

That last line was a wake up sentence. Good joke i must say

[Andrey13101991]

I was shocked and surprised when I saw it.
LOL.... April FOOL

I was not shocked after I read the questions that need to be filled in) everyone should understand that this is just a joke)

[semobo]

Most of the old member easily recognized that this is nothing more than April fool day but I think if it will be implemented forever then it is really good to avoid the multiple exchange from bounties but asking for identification an online forum looks too much.

[JayTrain]

I personally liked the joke that looked like that year, there were additional icons in the account’s reputation, but this is quite creative, I think many people have scared the message today.))

[Ayobami99]

First I thought it was real but then i saw the gender option i am like ‘what a joke! ’
Then i submitted an empty form and it wrote sucess then i knew it was the bitcointalk april fool... Good one from theymos tho

[rijaljun]

I think it's great for the forum but do this forum need to start this from April 1st which people will think it's just a troll for april mop? Anyway, later if this is really implemented as one of the compulsion for the members, I will support this.

In general, a very interesting idea. For many, this innovation has caused a smile. Some were worried about this warning. I personally liked the new statuses. It's great that we are not only interesting, but fun.

Is this not an April Fool's joke? because the most important aspect of cryptocurrency is anonymity. i'm sure it's just a joke

If we are talking about the information that appeared today, then this is a joke on the first of April. No provision of documents from bitcointalk members is required. Moreover, it seems to me that for the Administration and the moderators of the forum this should not be expected, because they themselves do not deduce KYC.

Of course this joke. You can read What questions are stated there and understand that the form for filling kyc is nothing more than an April Fool's joke.

Of course, this is just a joke. read the questions that need to be answered to pass KYC. This is obvious joke

It must be very difficult to live two lives that are in stark contrast to Crypto and the real world, although almost the same but there are so many different elements in the world of technology that continues to grow. We fight against fraudsters and unstable market prices. Many people don't like KYC too much because sometimes it is not according to the procedure, but I am sure that our goals are good, we will judge them ourselves.

[Aleksandra Gurskaya]

Today I saw in the telegram how one guy raised a panic that KYC needed to be passed. I was immediately in shock, but then I saw this form and realized that this was a cool game for us all!)

[chocopapaya]

Isn't KYC redundant?
I mean we all know Big Brother is watching all of us.

He's listening to us right now, seeing what I am typing.
He's using facial recognition AI tech to learn about our emotions and reactions.

In a sense, we are all in permanent KYC.

But since it is required from now on, I would like to point out a fatal flaw.
How come there isn't KYC for the link to submit your KYC information?
We all know that it is easy to cheat so an extra KYC step is only logical.

Once verified, you can then proceed to click on the link to submit your KYC information.

Honestly, I am pretty upset that bitcointalk overlooked this glaring error.
After all, the internet is full of weirdos and sickos.

I need information regarding this if it's April fool joke. But it looks it's getting serious.  We need further information regarding the kyc.  Seems everyone got a different opinions about this too. I need someone to confirm if truly the information is true. Thanks.

[AgentZero23]

Theymos you got me on this =). It wasn't a long time since you pulled out an April fool last year. I like the dedication of all moderators and the team behind bitcointalk.org. I have learned and earned from this forum and lastly I don't want KYC to be implemented in this forum peace =).
