Ha ha, I was already wondering what the nam Obyte was in my unread topics 

[o48o]

I have to say that Obyte is way more sexier name then byteball so congratz on that and the new logo. Even though that could be even more minimalistic

That'll take a while to get used to

The agency we eventually selected is Skriptor Zigilla, the #1 European Naming Agency with impressive international clients like Oppo, Heineken, ING, Philips, Roche, Shell, Vodafone, Bayer and Novartis.

If that's the selling argument, it doesn't make any sense: those companies (or at least the ones I know) are much older than Skriptor Zigilla is, and several of the company names are the names of the creator. They may be clients for sub-products, but those aren't the names everyone recognizes.

It looks a lot like O₂.


I'll probably get used to it, give me some time

Byteball is now O_byte

In my opinion, Obyte is a much better name than Byteball. I am wondering what the short will be? GByte should be replaced by OBytes since it confuses people a lot.

IMHO, ticker should be compatible with ISO 4217 currency code, so maybe XOB (since XGB is conflicting).

Leave the Giga, switch to Mega, and you can go with MOB.

That's not ISO 4217 compatible. Reserved ISO 4217 currency codes start with country code or end with country code (virtual currency that start with X). If MByte then maybe XMB. There is already cryptocurrency called MOBI.

Obyte how should i read O like Olivier or 0 like zero byte?
btw when any real world adoption?

O_byte (or Obyte) is like O₂ (O as Oxygen) or O-type blood. Even visually, O is round, 0 is not.

Congrats on the name change, good decision!

Why not just plainly OBYTE? How does the ISO currency code work, can only be 3 characters? XOB doesn't sound too bad either though

So they paid the #1 naming agency to come up with the name but then paid some internet rando to design the logo?

Seems legit...

Maybe not the worst name from an SEO standpoint, but there are a number of results of you Google "obyte", including the one linked above. Anyway, I don't have any ogigabytes anymore, but good luck with it obyters.

Is that bad? Logo is just one part of whole visual identity. You know what you can't find any results on Google, MD5 hash of Obyte, but that is not great name. It is normal that short names already have results on Google.

To create the new visual identity we are going to hire an external agency with extensive experience in rebranding.

Oh, please, read, world will be better:

Temporary visual identity and logo, keep the website + content

Edit: lol I didn't read tarmo reply

[vlom]

i dont like it. it is like obey.

[julian071]

Obey was some cool stuff tho. Check Exit through the giftshop, has some info on him.

Not used to the new name yet, but certainly better then Byteball.

Thing is tho that the token is actually bytes, not byteball. The most simple name of all, bytes.

I vote for XMB for the ticker and denomination in MB's.

[vikutoria]

That's not ISO 4217 compatible. Reserved ISO 4217 currency codes start with country code or end with country code (virtual currency that start with X). If MByte then maybe XMB. There is already cryptocurrency called MOBI.

According to this only 676 currencies (26*26) can be created. Too little for the crypto world.  I think they should rewrite their standards.
