And btw, bangomatic sounds like a teenager trying to protect what he thinks will be a cash cow for him. Forget him, his worthless coin will fade soon enough. People who don't investigate before throwing in their cash always get taken.
The flip side though is that people have an obligation to keep coins honest.
If you see that someone has launched a coin that was questionnably mined, then paid to put the coin on an exchange, all when the coin is not even ready yet, it is nice to say something to warn people to be cautious. That does seem to be the case with librex or whatever it is called.
Anoncoin is a coin that from the start has had significant privacy features. Some people are excited about potentially adding zerocoin, others not. The work between fluffypony and meeh is much more important for the coin longterm. Regardless there is no comparison between anoncoin and a coin that has not even got basic anonymity features yet but promises to.
Strongly vote against using the name zerotrust. It would sabotage the coin more than anything else.
The few people who understand the arcane reference to trustlessness would be outweighed by the huge number who would instinctively say "zerotrust, that sounds like a bad thing".

I disagree. It plays on same cords as "your business is none of our business".
You don't have to rely on any third party for your anonymity. Its the reason there is a demand for this technology in the first place.
Right. I understand the reference to trustlessness, but the word/phrase itself is toxic.
Think zerointegrity
zerovalue
zeroethics
zerotrust
Very difference from "your business is none of our business" which is edgy but unambiguous.
Ask any stranger if they want to buy something called zerotrust. It doesn't even need a focus group. It loses among new people to almost any other name except maybe crookedcoin or letsdrinksomedraincleaner coin.
ZeroCoin, ZeroCash, ZeroTrust
It falls into the same mold. Its catchy. People come here for privacy, the demographic we are catering to wont have a problem with it. It clears up a lot of confusion and it might just be the slogan we need to carry us through the next wave of shitcoins.
