Hello, since i have a lot of time due to quarantine, i want to create a thread, where year by year I'd collect fun pranks in crypto. Not only on our forum, but more wide, in most services which belongs to crypto industry. So, let's start! This will be about 20201. Bitcointalk.orgBitcointalks was also affected by virus this year Many user was affected by virus, but with different symptoms. From easy, like text sneezing, to hard, like text unreadable pneumonia hard case : Even moderators, were affected despite survival masks which they received from Theymos (thermos were infected too!) 2. CoinmarketcapBecause all this situation with coronavirus, many things like stocks or oil experienced a hard market fall ( even gold) ( EVEN BITCOIN!!1). Except only one important resource, which i would personally call one of the pillar of civilization, a TOILET PAPER. And Coinmarketcap created a crypto which supported by Toilet paper standard (which is more ancient even than gold standard) - Toilet Paper Token based on proof-of-wipe chain (but beware, you should go through Know-Your-Colon (KYC) process before buying it on your buks!) Lol, it's already on Yobit You can read about this magnificent startup (which is more valuable than most startups) here - https://blog.coinmarketcap.com/2020/04/01/toilet-paper-token-wipe-paper/ (or archived her) 1. MEW WOOF walletReally paw-friendly with really smart pups, believe me! Afterwards: I checked many sites belongs to crypto, and sometimes i do not even know is it april's joke or not However, i really liked that three main services is still keep joking year by year, despite all this pandemia stuff. Yeah, there is not good times, but without jokes and chilling it can be much worse for people. Thx to all, i'll go and buy some toilet paper After Afterwards: Maybe i missed something, you're free to add here any april fools stuff from crypto (and not only )

I had a bad feeling that the guy with pneumonia will not make it and after the resolution of this epidemics, his symptoms (post) will remain like that. It is hard to cure such situation without sequelae BTW nice, i wasn't aware CMC is fooling people too! It is unfortunate that TPT is out of stock but looks at the GRAPH lol

There are a lot of crypto communities who had prank during this April fool's Day. We know that recently Porn hub accepts Bitcoin as a form of payment and now they had prank of having launched their own token called "$PORN" token. SourceI'm pretty sure those experienced home quarantine and get bored, this site is the best place for them to watch.

Coindesk had a worthy April 1st news too. The title is already pretty cool. GitHub Is Burying Bitcoin Code Inside an Arctic Mountain to Ride Out the Next 1,000 Years
Edit: I've just noticed another April 1st prank in another thread. It tells that CSW proved himself as Satoshi (lol!). I'll just paste it here, it's not my merit. https://www.financemagnates.com/cryptocurrency/news/craig-wright-victorious-in-kleiman-case-after-signing-with-satoshis-key/Australian computer scientist and entrepreneur Dr. Craig Wright has been granted a victory in the Kleiman v. Wright case after he was able to provably send a transaction from one of the Bitcoin wallets known to belong to Bitcoin creator ‘Satoshi Nakamoto’, thereby verifying his claims that he is, in fact, the undisputed creator of BTC.
The transaction, worth roughly 01.04 BTC was sent and received by Dr. Wright and his legal team in the presence of Judge Bruce Reinhart on Tuesday, March 31st, who granted the ruling later the same day.
While there is no certainty that any Bitcoin wallet belongs to Satoshi Nakamoto, the transaction in question was executed from the wallet where the block reward from the first block on the Bitcoin blockchain, known as the Genesis Block, was originally deposited (1A1zP1eP5QGefi2DMPTfTL5SLmv7DivfNa). The wallet had previously lain dormant for years.

Also this one is my favorite prank. Coming from Trust Wallet Tweet
Also this one that says Craig Wright already won the case on Kleiman Case after signing with one of the wallets associated by Satoshi. Craig wrights now proven his identity as SatoshiIm thinking if thats so easy then this will not be an April Fools day gag story. Thumbs up to writers of this compiling it like a real story.

Trust wallet also posted a tweet that they are going to support the Toilet Paper Token and that they'll distributing the TPT tokens during the scheduled Airplop as a prank. While everyone were playing April Fool Pranks, Yobit saw this as an opportunity to scam and created a shitcoin in name of TPT and listed it to their exchange with a trading volume of over 800 BTC. Discussion regarding this is ongoing on here

I've always loved this prank, so I'm self-indulgently tooting my own horn here (a trick I learned from the great John McAfee) Craig Wright buys popular news site CoinTelegraph for a reported 200 million dollars. News broke earlier today of the buyout as CEO Daniel Seaman (brother David Seaman) stands down after a long & successful career. Craig Wright is said to have purchased the website to offer a "More fair & unbiased news source". Financial backer & advisor Calvin Ayre celebrated today by donating to a local child refuge home. Daniel Seaman publicly thanked everyone who supported him over the years at CoinTelegraph. After long consideration, we have decided to close source the code of http://wasabiwallet.io client and backend. This will make it much more difficult for attackers to exploit bugs in the software, and everyone will be safe, trust us. https://twitter.com/wasabiwallet/status/1245367127902769155Casa Titanium.
Casa Titanium is our ultra premium tier. Instead of an annual subscription, Casa Titanium is a one-time cost of 2,100 BTC, which buys you a lifetime membership to a security model the likes of which the world. has. never. seen. How Does It Work?
The proceeds from our Casa Titanium presale will be used to buy a decommissioned nuclear powered aircraft carrier that we shall commission as the Casa Citadel. Casa Titanium members will have exclusive access to one gratis Casa Citadel cruise per year; our year-round schedule will feature a variety of rotating themes such as "The Halvening" and "Crypto Casino." https://blog.keys.casa/announcing-casa-titanium/ https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1009201.0

And I thought CMC and BTCTalk were the only ones! Apparently most websites & services have prepared a little prank for each of us Great to see a little humor out here during these saddening pandemic times. I guess we all deserve a little smile or laugh right now. Gave you all a little merit for putting a smile on my face with these pranks. Now I gotta keep them & stake them up - I don't like running out of sMerits to give!

Hi OP I think this one should be added also. It is a myth that all the posts on Bitcointalk (bitcointalk.org) from my account (Satoshi) are in fact mine and have not been edited or changed and that the login on the website belongs to me. Satoshi (I) never used Bitcointalk. My final post, in fact, links to a domain that does not exist. On a serious note. Craig Wright now saying he (Satoshi) doesnt use account here on forum. Wow this is the biggest April Fool I ever heard. This is the top 1. I thought it was ended yesterday but they still publishing fools articles.

I will definitely add this to the OP post. Shit, really cringe. So, if it's not him, so who? Someone who, like a terminator, returned himself into the past to create account here to substitute Craig? I think Craig spent to much time in Columbia

On a little sidenote.. is nobody going to mention CryptopreneurBrainboss' new insanely well paid Signature Campaign? Thanks for the mentioned but actually it wasn't planned or well planned per se (to be specific) since I couldn't get a signatures and avatar uploaded on the thread neither where there terms and conditions etc to make the thread look more authentic yet it still drew in a lot of audience mostly since the payout were very mouthwatering and all visible. Thought about the prank minutes after I got infected with the forum viruse and had few minutes to come up with everything before I got on with my daily routines. I love the safety/prevention message I was able to pass across and glad no one took offense of the prank as everyone laughed. Also used the thread to spread some smerit love to all those that contributed in giving the thread more audience since it got many attention as more forum users were contributing (they must have thought, it was them applying for a slot).
