Topic: How do I change my Username (Read 273 times)
you cant change your username any longer. If you really want to change it you can just register new account but you will loose you activity points and merit points as well.
I think you can,t change your username.It is very difficult for you.may be you can consider messaging a moderator with genuine reason.
Don't think it is possible for new accounts, not atleast until you're ready to pay for it,
That's what I thought. I too wanted to change my Username, but I didn't think it was possible. Now reading all the posts above, I know now that it is possible but very costly, so I should just forget about it.
I do not see any option to change username in my profile settings. May be you can consider messaging a moderator with genuine reason.
I would like to change it to meepmeep for privacy purposes.
That is possible only if you are a donator here. Otherwise, the only option left is to register a new account here on the forum with desired username.
I’m curious why it is so expensive and difficult to change username. Is it for security reasons?
Back in the old days, you could donate 10BTC to become a Donator or 50BTC to become a VIP member. Bitcoin was worth way less than it is today, and this amount of BTC was only worth 1 month of hosting for the forum. The price is still the same because it would be unfair for the old Donators/VIP's that paid that amount of BTC back in those days.And... Theymos (the forum admin) has more things to do than change usernames. That's why he usually doesn't accept this requests, unless...
a. You donate that big amount of money;
b. Have a very good reason;
c. He has time left and recognizes your name from somewhere else (i.e what he did with an old member that had talked to him to get verified in a subreddit);
NOW, TO EVERYONE ELSE READING THIS: PLEASE STOP SPAMMING THIS THREAD WITH THE SAME "YOU MUST DONATE 50 BTC" ANSWERS. CAN'T YOU SEE THAT THE POST HAS BEEN ANSWERED ALREADY?
You must donate 50BTC to forum to become VIP Donator: https://bitcointalk.org/donate.html
Then you can change your username. Become VIP Donator also give you other advantages. You can access exclusive forum section that you never see before, i never see too, but i hear about it.
But if you want to donate, contact theymos first: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=pm;sa=send;u=35

Ha ha ha, Lol answer. Really this is the very interesting answer. I think this is not possible to donate 50BTC for changing username. Lol.
However, this is not possible to change Bitcointalk username. What is the problem with currency username? If you don't like this username so you should leave this account and create another account. But this is not legal to use multiple accounts. That is against of the forum policy. If you have more than one account, you will definitely get banned. So be careful

I think you can change or choose your won username 2 way.
1.firstly you can open a new account but this account not possible (If theymos does not want to).
2. You can change your username but need Donate BTC50 BTC (https://bitcointalk.org/donate.html).
because total system control by theymos so needs first contact theymos than Donate. or removed your dream.

You cant change modify username.
You can not change your username unless you donate some BTC. you can forget about this account and register a new one and start using that one but you will loose all your activity points and merits if you have any.
Just forget about this account (as it is a Jr. Member, you will not lose anything) and create a new one with the nickname you need.
It will be the easiest and the cheapest solution.

This is very expensive my friend. Why you should change your name? When you create your username you don't think it carefully? Lol whatever it is 5BTC is so expensive for username only. You should be contented on what you created unless you are a billionaire. I would like to change it to meepmeep for privacy purposes.
To keep your anonymity the best choice you have is to start a new account. As others have stated you would have to donate 10 BTC in order to be able to do so.
If, what you're saying on these forums, will result in governmental blowback or perhaps losing a job then you absolutely must protect yourself and open an new account. (Don't use meepmeep as this post will link the two usernames together.)
If you want to change your username for marketing reasons -- ahhh, that's another story. You need to decide that.
Register a new account?

Unless you are a Donator (costs 10BTC) or have a very good reason, just forget about it.
