Title: EARTHCOIN CELEBRATES EARTH DAY WITH A CONTEST – EAC 700K IN PRIZES!!
Post by: earthcoin on April 22, 2014, 06:10:06 PM
To everyone in the EAC and Crypto communities,
We at Earthcoin are celebrating Earth Day today! We are holding a contest to name the smallest denomination of EAC, the EAC equivalent of a satoshi for Bitcoin.

–From now until May 7 (12 am Eastern) we will take suggestions from the crypto community here and at our other forums on what you would like Earthcoin’s smallest denomination (0.00000001 of 1 EAC) to be named.

–On May 7, all suggested names will be entered in a poll that will run until June 7. The name of the smallest denomination of 1 EAC will be selected through that online vote.

–On June 7, everyone who votes in the May 7-June 7 poll will have a chance to win EAC 700,000 in prizes! We welcome everyone to help us celebrate Earth Day by participating in this contest.

Our community has already started suggesting names on Earthcointalk, from ‘atoms’ to ‘taos’:

We welcome as many suggestions as possible. Any suggestions? Any questions? Post them below.

Hmm... an eensy, teensy piece of the Earth. Maybe a grain?

Although I am not sure if I see the point based on EAC's current prices. I don't think many people will be buying things with sat equivalents of EAC.

My ideas:

Terroshi

(from "Terra" the Latin word for Earth and "satoshi")

Other names:

Earthling

(Earthling means someone living on earth and there are billions of people living on Earth so it's a nice symbolic name.)

I like Earthling, it is also a album from David Bowie.

We have a winner in the name Earthcoin's smallest denomination contest - he's been contacted to receive his EAC 700K.

The satoshi equivalent for EAC will be 'grain.' So 0.00000001 EAC = 1 Grain.

As you may know, a 'grain' was an ancient measurement, based on a grain of wheat, for denoting the smallest part of a troy ounce of gold and other systems for weighing gold.

That's what I suggested I see. Forgot all about this.

I'll assume the contest was for a random winner, not people who suggested grain, correct? I wouldn't mind a bushel of free grain.
