the only reason i support a name change is because I don't think it should remain scrypt algo, kinda hard to vote on things when so many are dependent on other outcomes, ie name in my mind is dependent on algo, logo is dependent on name etc

[fitinplace]

my suggestions:

block vote - BV
block vote scrypts - BVS
vote block coin - VBC
secure block votes -SBV

btw anyone know qt wallet confirm count on received and confirms it takes before spending a mined block reward?

I believe it is 60 confirmations.

Exactly 2 weeks ago I posted a suggestion that we should hold of on voting for the name (and branding) until we, as a community, decide how we want the coin to be defined going forward.
https://cryptocointalk.com/topic/1169-bitcoin-scrypt-btcs-information/page-90?p=199966#entry199966
 
At the time, we received limited feedback so we decided to move forward with voting on a new name.
 
While a bit delayed, we are glad to now see the community put its voices together to really start discussing this issue.
https://cryptocointalk.com/topic/1169-bitcoin-scrypt-btcs-information/
 
As such, we will be holding off on the name change vote and look forward to more community feedback to decide how best to proceed from here.
 
Finally, thanks to everyone for the kind words...they are really appreciated.  That said, don't worry about hurting anyone's feelings when suggesting solutions, as we all want what's best for the coin and will be similarly be neutral in evaluating everyone's comments for deciding how to move forward.
 
Again, I am glad (and a little relieved)  we are finally having this important discussion before deciding on the name change issue and appreciate everyone's participation in the discussion.

You're welcome   I am currently working on getting a blockexplorer synced, this will take a while to index all transactions.
EDIT: Indexing of the blockexplorer has finished, latest marketprice is taken from Cryptopia. You can find the BTCS blockexplorer at:
