Convert bitcointalk to cryptotalk-like-forum.

This could be a big news but since it's already here (presented by you), I don't think theymos is going to try it. In fact, I think theymos is keeping an eye on this thread and he will avoid all possible proposals of this thread LOL

He will figure out something that no one has any idea about, that's what he is doing successfully from last few years.


Just clicked!
Wake up and login, you will see your username has changed 🤣

His joke should be no joke.

Since last years was in very poor taste.

How about selling Satoshi’s posts as NFTs?

Why do you need an april fool day for this act ? 
When Elon musk tweets are being sold as NFTs why not satoshi & theymos posts could be sold as NFTs also in real ?

Aren’t we putting thoughts in theymos mind?

The best of them all.
Theymos removing the merit system saying that now you don't need merits to rank up and the old process restarts. 
Imagine how big the crowd will be, that will come by various users who will start making alt accounts and there will be no limits of their happiness.

While NFTs are trending a lot, I also had a thought whether theymos would say that he will be adding high-end limited edition NFTs on each users profile and let them sell their accounts for millions of dollars. 
I know that sales of accounts are not encouraged here, but old users like AccountSeller will be those who will try to take the best advantage of this and sell their accounts to may be Elon Musk, Jack Dorsey or even to Craig Wright. Lol what would happen if theymos auction's Satoshi's account on April fool's day?

on April fool's day would be interesting, since will be a joke probably
do not see it as a possibility outside from that day, Satoshi account is not theymos ownership, isn't it? nevertheless, people would be probably interested in buying NFT, rare option with 100 pieces would be another option

[The Sceptical Chymist]

On the first, nothing will happen and the joke will be that there is no joke. Short novelty, long epochtalk development cycle.

Bah, there's been some sort of April Fool's joke ever since I've been a member here (or at least that I can remember) and every year someone spoils the surprise by making a thread like this.  It's so much more amusing when you've got newbies pulling their hair out over some new ranking system or whatnot, but when people start discussing the joke ahead of time, well, it loses a lot of its purpose.

Now, this epochtalk thing....that's the perpetual joke if you ask me.  I don't even know what epochtalk is except that the current version of bitcointalk is supposedly going to be replaced with it.  But knowing that everything on the web has a shelf life, I'd have to surmise that by the time Theymos does roll out the new forum software it'll already be quaint and outdated, much as what we've now got is (and has been for years). 

But hey, you know me.  I'm a tech-idiot, so there's about an 85% chance that I have no idea what I'm talking about when it comes to crap like that.

What I would like to see is theymos introducing some big change on the forum and exactly on April 1st so everyone thinks that's just some prank and everything will go back as it was before. But then as April 1st passes, people are slowly realizing that's not just a prank, but the real thing

Now that would be a interesting twist!

Unfortunately, previous april fools are not like that. That idea would be unique, hope theymos would come up a funny and with a twist

What about "laser eyes" like almost anyone has on Twitter? (I don't like this "trend" to be honest, but that was the first thing coming to my mind). 
Alternatively, theymos could announce the new forum layout.

We don't have faces here in our avatar unlike our Twitter profile, I can't imagine if that's a prank is applicable in here or how it will work, unless throughout in our avatar that has face images.

Yes, that was very trending now in Twitter, the laser eyes and here is the list of those Twitter profile that has laser eyes.

Look at Michael Saylor's Twitter profile.

It's two days more to go, let's better wait for theymo's prank.

Well, we also did KYC for thermos and similar. 
But yes, technically it's very difficult to implement because it would require to change all profile pictures. ^^

Theymos should announce that the new forum is ready and post a link to a brand new forum with awful design and even older forum software. All users are required to copy and paste all their posts from Bitcointalk chronologically if they want to keep their current rank. Of course the source to their original Bitcointalk post has to be added at the bottom. Make an announcement on Meta and instruct users to report any problems they encounter. Sit back and watch as people lose their shit.

Hahaha 
I really wish this particularly will be the April fool prank. It will be so funny considering the so much discussion of Epochtalk and how long it had taken. More people who won't be pleased are the good members that contributed for the project.

[xLays]

KYC in Bitcointalk will be a great idea.

[Evilish]

Theymos could transfer a couple BTC to to my BTC address for April fools. Ready to be the butt of the joke and I promise I won't even complain.

Nah, on a serious note, thanks for this post OP. Didn't realize April first is so near. Gotta be more vigilant both online and irl.
