Title: Which of the following is the best name/brand for a Bitcoin card? Post by: DeathAndTaxes on January 10, 2012, 06:42:11 PM I am looking in the coming month to launch product that would be an alternative to BitBills (defunct ?).
I could use some feedback in securing a good name/brand/domain. The product would be a Bitcoin stored value card w/ protected private key for offline usage. It would also provide a convenient way to purchase Bitcoins by credit card albeit with the requirement for physical delivery. A good brand, good name and good domain should all compliment each other. I am looking for a name which embodies the intent/purpose of the product. Potential names are limited by availability of domains. Since this would be primarily an online business a high quality (easy to remember, easy to type, common TLD, etc) domain is essential. The following domains are only available hyphenated (which I dislike for obvious reasons): crypto-cards bit-codes bit-card bit-notes I am really leaning towards Coinpaks or Coin Codes. P.S. Don't waste time trying to hijack the domains I already registered them. :) If you have an alternative idea post it in the thread or PM privately. I will pay 5 BTC for an alternate idea I use. I am interested in any constructive feedback. Title: Re: Which of the following is the best name/brand for a Bitcoin card? Post by: SgtSpike on January 10, 2012, 06:45:34 PM I like coinpaks myself. Simple name, simple domain, kind of get a free ride off the moneypak name... it's good all around.

Post by: jjiimm_64 on January 10, 2012, 06:47:49 PM I voted for bit card, but I must say that coinpak piggybacking on moneypak may have more/easier legs.

cocoin mathemagic or something silly binary; like 10101.com which you could aliase as wanowanowan.com :) Title: Re: Which of the following is the best name/brand for a Bitcoin card? Post by: Phinnaeus Gage on January 10, 2012, 07:29:11 PM At first read, this may come across as corny. But I'm suggesting it nonetheless--FRED, or any other real person's name. Personalize it! Years ago, I remember a spot on the radio advertising Bob's Bank. I don't recall if it was a real bank or not, but it stuck with me through all these years. And you don't have to call it the FRED Card--simply Fred. Or Herb (maybe not herb ;)). Or FRANK.
Teller: You paying with cash, credit or Nick? Purchaser: Nick. Teller: (2 seconds later without even presenting the card that's still in his pocket, wallet or purse) Thank you for your purchase. Have a great day, John. Purchaser: You're welcome, bud. You, too. Title: Re: Which of the following is the best name/brand for a Bitcoin card?

edit: it seems bitbills is alive and kicking..even have a new website. Title: Re: Which of the following is the best name/brand for a Bitcoin card? Post by: DeathAndTaxes on January 10, 2012, 08:27:08 PM What will it physically look like? a credit card? something like the pimpcoin thingy? Standard credit card size. Full color image on front, QR codes and hologram protected private key on the back. Title: Re: Which of the following is the best name/brand for a Bitcoin card?
