[CryptoChronic]

Only the start.... wait till real coins hit the exchanges.....Congrats to this monarchy for fucking up

[coins101]

DASH DRK is dumping already ..

Belly flop to 0.0105 .. then fireworks to 0.1 no?

Have a carpet on the floor.

[etoque]

- Shake out the weak hand -

At least we've hit 0.0117 on craptsy,we're going to die

Guys, please don't let your sentimental attachment to the old name cloud your judgement. Darkcoin would never gain traction outside of dark markets and nerds. When I brought it up to anyone outside of crypto, people had immediate negative reactions to the name. It makes sense to us, but for others dark= bad, criminal, evil etc.

I had the same experience with ppl I talked about darkcoin.

I had the same experience about Bitcoin   .

I don't think really that Dash brand corresponds perfectly to the goals and all the tech which are already involved with the project.

D{C}ash is actually a pretty slick name. The argument's are pretty solid for the change. I think this will stop alot of the trolling as well.

Aren't you a Monero guy ?

Are you saying that because you don't like the name and your hoping we'll go with it ?

I used to hold drk but do own monero right now. I am a fanboy of none and support what I consider good tech. DRK's tech has been getting better and better. I may buy back in after this gets settled. But right now fanboi's of just the name will make the market unstable for a little while and it's prudent to wait until a correction is made.

[CryptoChronic]

O yea and these DNMs you want to shy away from and the underground economy are multi-billion dollar markets

[darlidada]

What about "Monark"

I think its a butterfly. But what it truly means to me is "monarchy" as the #1 coin to rule them all.

A name is just a name the most important is the technology of the coin and its potential. Outside this forum few people know about Darkcoin so if a time is right to change it's now.
"Dash" maybe to highlight the transactions' speed ? Why not.

Just a hint: Litecoin's volume on many chinese exchanges, which I know is what you're referring to, is faked. Many of those exchanges have 0% trading fees, so users just use bots and trade back and forth with themselves to create the illusion of volume.

Also, the name "dark" coin" in Mandarin(Chinese) is not Devilcoin. Whoever told you that is "FUDing"/lying.

[DefendKebab]

I have a idea : Darkcoin / Slogan : Digital Cash.

winner!

[AzzAz]

I don't believe it's this name talking what causes price drop?

[Jaroco]

Crypto Cash?

[qwizzie]

With the discussion of the rebranding has the use of medium channels also been discussed by the dev team ?
(in particular if we are still continueing on this specific bitcointalk forum?)

Part of the fall is the 'done deal' bit.

People need to feel engaged with the process; vested in the outcome, to their liking or not.

[coins101]

oh no, we can't do the lite and dark stuff anymore.

What about "Monark"

I think its a butterfly. But what it truly means to me is "monarchy" as the #1 coin to rule them all.

I have had you on ignore but once in awhile click show and must say that this is a very good name choice. Wish I could remember why I ignored you. Must have been awhile ago.

ok - I accept your point, but over attachment to a name will be fatal if it's actually preventing adoption.

People need to ditch their sentimental feelings about names and start thinking how to get out of the hole. It's not enough just to like a name. You need to be able to demonstrate that it has a future. If people have gone out and spoken to serious potential adopters and discovered that the name's a showstopper then those who disagree with them need to go out and find adopters for whom it isn't before they start mouthing off too much.

The tech that's now on the cards for this coin is very promising. It isn't enough just to say "we're a niche". We're the 3rd marketcap mineable crypto in the world. If people want to keep that position then they need to be pragmatic over getting past the glass ceiling (IMO).

I'm all for exploring different names but I wouldn't over estimate it's importance. Great sounding names can end up being crap and lousy sounding names can end up being great. It all works its way out. There's a ton of coins out there and nobody's complaining about any of the names.

[CryptoChronic]

Like I said idiotic and this will be detrimental...way to fuck it up guys Darkcoin was something great

[Kuriso]

wow that escalated quickly.  went for a walk and come back to my orders filled and the price dropping.  should of pull some of those orders.

wondering if I should follow and pickup some at the bottom
