Title: Can Some Please Provide A List of Announcement Acronyms?
Post by: PROTO_Token on May 10, 2018, 08:21:54 PM
Hello Everyone,

Glad to be a newbie and excited to contribute to the forum.  Some very interesting information.

I noticed on the ALT COINS Announcement thread members use certain acronyms in the subject line.

Ex:  [ANN] = Announcement

Is there a definitive list of accepted syntax or are members adding to the list of acronyms regularly?


Thanks for your help in advance.

[ANN] = announcement
[WTB] = want to buy
[WTS] = want to sell
[WTT] = want to trade
[NSFW] = not safe for work

More...
PNYC = Payment not yet confirmed
FLUX   =  Campaign in flux between closed and accepting
CFNP   = Closed for new participants

Hope this helps?

Do you? @jet, hehe



I think sometimes people use WTL in the lending section for (want to lend).

You could also see in the altcoin section:
[ICO] - Initial Coin Offerings
[PoS] - proof of stake (the more coins you have, the more you earn) - it can also be proof of storage in some cases when hdd mining is used instead.
[PoW] - proof of work (the amount you earn is based on your miner's hash speeds).

I don't know if you have tried searching a little before you start a new thread, but let me give you a hand in this.
Here is a /almost/ complete list of all the crypto terminology. Have fun :)

This thread is great iasenko.  I wasn't sure what the correct vocabulary term was to find the list.

Thanks for the great answers everyone!

My personal favorite by JC.
