Bitcoin Forum

Recently espied the project named spacetrump and also a token named penis :o Therefore I'd like to get some comments - can some extraordinary (or just plain weird) name for token\coin affect its popularity and further success, what do you think?

I think it's nonsense and these currencies are made only for fun but for profit.

Good name will bring bonus I'd agree on that, but it is hard for me to believe that some project, ICO/ITO, can simply win majority of investors because of it's name. I mean investors should be at least more cleaver than that. For me personally the strongest thing that matters is design (design of website, ads, nice logo etc.) and of course marketing. Why? Because many people look at the surface when investing as many of them don't really have time or don't want to create time to do their own research. This is why some scams are so powerful in the field as people are blinded if you can create huge hype within marketing. Although there is nothing bad with marketing as even legit project to succeed well must go with marketing their project because this is how you will be recognized among people. They won't invest in the project if they don't know anything about it. Good name is a plus but not the key point in my opinion.

That depends on whether the name of the project or platform they are connected to. But for me it's nonsense because it's not a name for an ICO to succeed. It is in their ability to do it and its benefits to people.

Morelikey not a big factor to a coin's success,but it still good to have a decent and eye catcher name because most of the investors wont invest to your coin if the name itself sounds scammy like SPONSY that is ine campaign soinds fonzi,but it is really depends on the whole project,the name might be a little factor but it wont affect the whole development,even if the market has good name but poor developers there will be no chance for these coins to achieve success.

I think the name of any product/coin/service is less influencing the project success ( comparing to the content ) . Because - I think - content is the king which determines the outcome of the project . For example : very famous companies have names that seem not to be that attractive / unique ( Facebook, Google , Amazon ...).

I believe that outstanding name is important for a project. Even there are some troll coins such as jesus coin and president trump coin. They do viral ads. So they can get more investors.

I think the name matters definitely, but doesn't equate success. A good name for a project I recently found out about is Havven (payment network and stablecoin). Big fan of how that sounds. https://havven.io/

It's a funny joke. The creators of such projects want to amuse everyone, or to arrange a HYIP around the project in such a way. There is a good example of the success coin Logicon was a joke in the beginning - now the good and popular coin. I think it's a small case and most funny projects don't have a serious future on it don't need to invest your money in them.

That's interesting to know, that Logicon story. I consider it rather good that some joke might develop into a good project. Probably, some funny named coins deserve buying. Kinda test-drive, or at least a sample to monitor.

I think it can bring success or failure.

I will give you an example: I'm auto-skipping all projects with ETH and BTC in the name like Bitcoin Purple/Power/White, etc sh*tcoin. There are few legit with ETH in the name like ETH Lend, but it's rare occasion.

No however if you have a good campaign exposure and a lot of social media campaigns that never stops that maybe it you can have a successful coin. Name doesn't have to do with being successful the thing is you must familiarize the public in order to have a good reputation to them at the same time be responsible to update from time to time.

Name is just a small part of a projects success . If project have no working concept , or people found it unuseful any outstanding name won't help it in long term perspective . But for some fraud projects good name is the only chance to scam investors .

That doesn't give any impact to the popularity, the popularity will come if the team can be completed all of their promises in the roadmap dude. There is so many shit coin with the unique name right now. But all of them worth zero due to the there is no usefulness to buy them all. They created to scam others. Unique name altcoin with not development progress and totally shit coin.

Yes, sometimes it works out like that, project like techspec and dropil for example.. There name have been everywhere since the project start

Agree here. Reliable team and good roadmap is the first thing to check. Just probably some unexpected name might catch the attention to the project at the very beginning, and so bring round bounty participants f.ex.

I think it depends on whether the name conjures up good feelings and has good associations for members of the public.

I remain astonished that Bitcoin Gold is doing as well as it is, for example. I can only surmise that it's because users like the name "gold" and think it's safer than bitcoin itself.

If the ICO project is not a scam or legit why name it something weird instead name it a whole some name the would represent the wholesome image of the project. If the project is really good by the name alone it is really will brainstorm to come up with good ICO name.

Success of coins/tokens doesn't depend on it's names. For example, your name doesn't shows who you are and what you can do. Am I right? same on it. It depends on the capability and benefits of that coin/token and not on their names. And those you mentioned, I think, is only made for fun, it don't have a value either if I am right.

extraordinry name brings extra ordinary outcome,meaning FAILURE how could investors will generate their funds in something sounds not serious?try to put your fit into  our shoes,would you believe those names?this is serious matters because money and effort involvinin this forum.dont make fun of the issues

whatever will be the token name it is not that much to think, we can see different names on cryptocurrency, it doesn't affect the ICO or success of it.
It is based on the project and implementation of it. about the whitepaper and developers.
the team of success with a great marketing team.

A catchy name would surely bring the attention of investors to your ICO, I agree. But I don't believe that it is the key factor to attract potential investors. I believe, in my opinion, would be web design, advertisements, nice attractive logo, marketing strategies, consistent roadmaps, and reliable team members backing it.
Track record will add up to it.

Of course as it also support on how the token works.
Let's take a look on doge coin , it's legendary coin because it's already exist when I firstly known crypto , 3 years ago !

When people see dogecoin as a joke but it bring the lucky charm for who want to invest !

That brings us brand new research area - the perception of a name and its effect on a coin reliability!  ;D

Names do matter, and capture initial interest of a person. A catchy name is hard to forget, and an dynamic one rolls off the tongue. Funny names are also easy to remember, meaningful ones command instant approval. So yes, names do matter, and contribute to success but can never be solely responsible for it.

New name means something that we will search of,do not use exaggerated names and insulting make it more eye catcher that will make most of the people curious so that if they have done research about your coin,and found it useful they will eventually invest to your porject,so yes the name of the coin would have somehow an impact to the users or investors.

Something new to the people's eyes will trigger those people to get curious and from that curiosity they would research about your coin if your coin is really promising im sure that those curious people will try to investo to your project,so yes the name of the coin would be a good factor for its success,but the main factor will be the over all project so dont expect to much with the name.
