I am just going to assume this is an April Fools prank, because honestly, I was seriously confused this morning. When I opened the forum and saw everything suddenly turned green, I thought something unusual or even scary had happened to Bitcointalk. For a moment, I was trying to figure out if it was a hack, an update or something else entirely
I tried to continue browsing, but my eyes are already used to the normal theme and the green was honestly a bit uncomfortable to look at for long.
So I decided to play a little magic of my own.

I used the Stylus extension on Chrome and temporarily changed the theme to something that suits me better and it worked perfectly. If you are on desktop or laptop and the green theme is bothering you too, you can try it out.

What do you mean you assumed it's a prank? Accept it, we have to live with it now, and you will probably need that extension forever because the theme is not going to change back.

Trump fooled everyone, he kept saying he is going to infiltrate the Kharg Island and take over, but instead, he took over our forum, and now we are cooked. You should also keep your ID card, driver's license, passport, or any other identity document handy, because you will probably be asked to complete KYC verification to continue making posts.

This is not a prank, it's just bad timing from the administration to give them control at the beginning of this month, and now everyone feels like it's a frank or something.

Accepting it was very hard for me but from the way US has been moving I just have to accept that they are now here to take over everything even our forum.
Strange things has already happened today like Donald Trump appearing in court today for the case about illegal and temporary citizens not having citizenship for their kids born in the US.
We are in very mysterious times.

I just woke up after a longer nap, it is dark outside and the first thing I did was log in to Dollar Talk.  My concern was that I suddenly went color blind, not that it was a hack.  Green suits Dollar Talk so much better, we are all Fiat addicted here and we hate any Currency except Dollars so why do you mind?

The best thing that happened today was Donald Trump taking over the throne from the filthy hands of Theymos.  The green scheme is the second best thing that happened today.

I don't understand!!, Look, this whole thing has to be a joke or something.  Grin Grin

Accepting what?. Okay, let's wait and see what the theme looks like after tomorrow, then I will face the reality of things.

TBH, This new theme is making me sick. This morning when I woke up and went straight to the forum I felt dizzy for a few minutes without realizing it was actually a new theme, for a moment I thought it was my laptop or just my eyes after a long night working on the screen.

Now I have to set the screen brightness to the minimum, otherwise I get dizzy again. Even though there are many ways to manually change this theme, I feel too lazy to do it.

Now Bitcoin is officially gone from this forum and we should support the original currency USD. I feel sad about it because it was a great project that failed after all these years. We have to adapt and accept reality, this is not April fool

same, this green color is giving me nausea, i feel like i'm gonna throw up.

Even though there are many ways to manually change this theme, I feel too lazy to do it.
few more hours and we are free from this pain.

Now Bitcoin is officially gone from this forum and we should support the original currency USD. I feel sad about it because it was a great project that failed after all these years. We have to adapt and accept reality, this is not April fool
the joke would have been much funnier to me if it was USDT since it would be a "crypto coin" replacing bitcoin, but i guess the forum doesn't want to get associated with it even for a joke, hehehe.

I am not surprised that he’s shocked and had to panic by this whole change. He has being offline between October-2024 to July-2025, so he missed out on the last April Fool’s day.

Don’t worry OP, the interface will be back as it used to be at 00:00UTC. For the time being, enjoy our newly found and improved currency like no other we're going to be using henceforth- The Dollar😁

Personally, this time I didn't got fooled even for a second, while there was some previous pranks which fooled me for few minutes, especially when you forgot what day today is.
This time I got notification from Bitcointalk Discord by Cyrus, I actually forgot that this server still exists. But when I opened announcement, it made me to smile and I thought - c'mon guys, really? Cheesy.
Anyway, April Fools Day pranks is one of best Bitcointalk traditions.

Same sentiment! TBH, if you've been here long enough and have seen the tradition many times, it could be hard to fall for it sometimes. But regardless whether or not one has fell for it or nah, it is still a very enjoyable event. In this case, I had fun reading the satire/sarcastic posts LMAO. Sum good humor out there lol. 🤣

‎After a long day I decided to login just to see everything in the forum has turned green, yesterday it was so shocking. Maybe I felt that way because I am a newbie in the forum and haven't experienced April Fool's tricks. At first I thought I did the wrong login, or network issue. I also noticed some unusual emojis in every post.
