Hello guys. Not sure if this has already been discussed by the team, but I would like to point your attention at the ticker of the coin.
What about changing it? There are at least three good reasons to do that:
1) INSANE is the ticker of the old coin, may generate confusion
2) Ticker INSANE is pretty long and it is the same as the coin name
3) We could choose something a bit more professional looking, maybe a three chars one starting with X
I would propose XNS, but I'm curious to know your opinion about this...
1. I don't think it will cause confusion, there are too many coins to fill the heads of people. Most will not hear of it before it hits Yobit. In saying that, the sooner Trump gets shut down the better. I would do it now, and carry the coins over to an account, label it, and wait for them to be claimed.
2. The ticker is long and the same as the coin name. But I do not see where the argument is. It is a statement. If you mean it breaks with protocol, is that so bad? a. The virtue in it is that it also stands out against the other few hundred coins on an exchange. b. in the first part (a) you mention confusion, this would cause another layer, and require new wallets issuing. I assume not a critical update, with the base58 still on little i (not X). So that would be confusing, too. c. XNS stands out, but at the bottom of a page, grouped together with the other 3 char Xs, requiring you scan the Xs to find it.
Changing the ticker may have made sense if it was to INS or something. But I think it is too late to contemplate it.
3. Honestly, I don't see why 3 characters and X is professional. It is generic, like all altcoins. INSANE did not have to be INSANE, it could have been called anything really: "0x0" would be right at the top of a listings page, and has a "genesis" ring too it.
I think there may have been an argument to go for INS or ISE right at the beginning, but now I think it would cause too much confusion.
Sorry to disagree, as you provide valuable services to the crypto community in bucket loads.
