Hi, I have a suggestion on how to improve this coin.
Rename the coin to Curecoin.
Have a poll on the site or in the client to determine which charity will receive the donation each month.
There are several reasons why this might work better:
The coin will appeal to more people. Some people might have not been directly affected by cancer, but I can think of countless people who have encountered some kind of illness, ailment which are equally in need of curing.
Secondly if cancer is cured, cancercurecoin becomes obsolete, whereas curecoin would move onto the next thing, as there will always be something else to cure.
Thirdly, if an epidemic hit which needed drastic donation quickly, the curecoin could be routed towards that (provided users agreed to it, via poll).
Finally, the name would be easier and shorter to remember. 'Curecoin' - 'Oh, what's that?' - 'Donates transaction fees to cure things, currently cancer, but has previously donated to cure IBS, Chrons Disease, AIDS, decided via poll by the users.' - 'Wow that's something I can get behind, my dad has X disease'.
Just my 2 cents.
I have been taking a break from posting while we tried to get to the bottom of the issues we had on launch. I apologize for the rocky start and hope people will keep supporting us.
It is refreshing to see some suggestions from this community. It is very welcomed and important to the development of this project.
Patrón, You have some very strong points. Perhaps we can setup a poll with 10 different names and see which one gets chosen?
We are open and will listen to the community ideas so please keep the ideas coming and we can all build something great to help some great causes.
The more we get people together, the better. So please everyone, discuss, suggest, get involved.
Thanks all.
