Why can't Visacoin be Vscoin or VSC we all know it's still visa coin.

[opticalcarrier]

Or just VCoin.  XVC trading code

I think this has gone on long enough.  I'm sending this over to Visa's legal department, see what they think about this nonsense. And for "VisaCoin"...

Highlighted the relevant parts for you.

Who the fck cares about US trademarks? The OP certainly not.

Who would Visa want to file a lawsuit against? There is nobody to reach.

... this project itself is a different story

Visa is trademarked in most countries in the world on the just the US, read their terms.

They also have a history of aggressively crushing anyone that conflicts with their trademark

I think this is a concern that the dev should address here if this is to be a long term project

You sure are right, but as you can see there is not even a reply. The unknown dev resides in cryptoanarchy and is not going to care about trademarks, you see.

what you did not think about, however, was how VISA will come after any forums sites that "harbor" threads about visacoin or VSC.  Thus forcing bitcointalk and other sites to censor threads on VSC.

[dewdeded]

So maybe if nothing else they could send the forum itself a cease and desist for aiding and abetting "conspiracy to violate a Trademark" or some such.

The forum is operate anon too.

You're such a tool.  You sent this forum thread to Visa's legal department? Great job. "This has gone on long enough" What, two weeks? If it becomes an issue and needs to be changed it will be a quick and easy fix. I don't know why everyone is breaking a sweat over the name. Relax. Side note: jesus already at nearly 80 BTC for the donation fund, what the hell happened yesterday? Awesome stuff.

[panonym]

You guys are insane...

Note that 80% of the coin incoming may be from the poster itself.
We certainly have 20% of fools among us.

On the contrary,  The OP clearly doesn't understand copyright/trademarks, and isn't taking this seriously.  It's better this gets shutdown/name changed sooner rather than later, before even more people part with their hard earned BTC.   Would you rather invest dozens or hundreds of bitcoins and/or hours of mining/electricity into a project that just gets shut down later?

Sooner is better than later good sir.

So maybe if nothing else they could send the forum itself a cease and desist for aiding and abetting "conspiracy to violate a Trademark" or some such.

The forum is operate anon too.

It is a dot org domain, thus well within U.S. ability to shut down / seize.

If the US shuts down an .org domain, another TLD which is not in their reach pops up immediately...

[opticalcarrier]

Good grief people....  op has another thread for the naming issue. Go argue over there.  op you may want to make this very clearinthe op.

And while the domain wouldnt get siezed right off, the site could get shut down if it ignored a cease and desist order which VISA would easily get gramted

Really interesting coin! And it has already raised more than 4x what NXT did during its presale. Greater participation early on should help it combat NXT's biggest problems, which are (lack of) distribution and hoarding.
