Title: Some unused names for altcoins: Chic.cash, Egold.cc, Psst.cash, Swish.cash Post by: TheFascistMind on September 20, 2014, 05:21:59 PM I don't know yet what I am going to do with these.
chic.cash egold.cash egold.cc psst.cash swish.cash Might be for sale or donation to coins I think deserve. Or might be for a coin I would silently contribute to as a developer. We will see. I will try to not publicly endorse nor throw my reputation at any. Let you all decide. I just hope we can inspire.

Most people in the developing world never heard of that US-centric fiasco, but they sure know what gold is. egold is not e-gold. Imo, Egold is a better name than Bitcoin.

You mean trademark. And they did trademark "e-gold" but afaics not "egold". Trademarks are protected by use which is too similar and could cause confusion. But afaik, e-gold is shutdown and thus there is no confusion or harm that can come to users or principals of e-gold from the use "egold". Also the registered trademark may not be global. Also we don't know if the owners of the trademark are non-negotiable. Apparently he is still in charge and still interested in seeing the name used for electronic money. http://blog.e-gold.com/posts_by_douglas_jackson/ http://www.justice.gov/usao/md/news/2014/Over56.6MillionForfeitedInE-GoldAccountsInvolvedInCriminalOffenses.html http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2013-11-29/e-gold-founder-launches-new-gold-backed-currency http://www.cnet.com/news/judge-spares-e-gold-directors-jail-time/ He apparently hasn't shut down this use of the name: http://www.egold.net.au/ |
