I think the tBT3 would be good. The BT3 really does not tell you what it is. what happens if there is a version 3 of something like that ..can cause confusion.

Just my 2 cents

Still not figured out how to mine this anyways haha

Good point, that's a nice suggestion. I'll try to add it to the poll. To mine you can use procrypto's pool:

Server: mine.procrypto.com
Port: 19332
Stats: http://mine.procrypto.com:19332/static/
Username: <your testnet bitcoin address>
Password: (doesn't matter)


It's working great for me. :-)
