BMR vs MRO. Time to make it fair.

Some members of our good BitMonero community decided to rename the coin and even did it after sneaky voting in their own IRC chat.
It's time to make public voting and to listen to the people!
Choose the name you like or offer something else.

24 hours to make it clear.

It was #bitmonero by that time. Hardly "their own IRC chat" :/.
Confirmation bias is dangerous. I recommand factual data instead.

The only one that has problem with the name is tft and it wouldnt be a sneaky poll for him if he was ever online watching what is going on with the coin instead of abandoning it.

This is kind of silly... anyone can make a bunch of profiles on here and vote it one way or the other.

If TFT wants to continue bitmonero as a separate fork he can easily do so by introducing some hardfork change into his repo.  monero-project repo will continue on its own. So far I have only introduced softforking changes, and both our clients are compatible with the network, though his is out of date.

What is the fair way?

This thread is an insight to how much people are unable to digest Monero's success

What is the fair way?

I'm not sure. I was never in favour of renaming the client itself from bitmonero. I wanted the daemon and protocol to be referred to as Bitmonero while naming the project name and coin itself Monero. Hence in the repo it's being maintained as "bitmonero".

Bitmonero is a good name for a client or protocol, monero is a good name for a currency.

Since people like both names, is this not a reasonable compromise?

Anyone can make the second announcement of the fresh coin.
Anyone can make optimized miner and pretend to be saints.

This is silly.

I'm sorry I've been maintaining the bitmonero/monero fork and haven't introduced any hardfork changes?

Hmm I don't know why Monero folks are getting on the defensive here with couple of Bytecoin faggots trying to FUDge. Don't worry about responding to these trolling faggots who are happy to merge mine 80% premine and spewing their propaganda. Bitcoin folks are watching/mining/trading MRO happily.

No, no. You just haven't introduced any changes

Yeah, a peaceful Bitcoin Junior Member will call me faggot. I'll report it, thank you. Mr. bot, re-login, please to monero account and explain the questions, please:

Are you one of the fags who 80% ninja mined Bytecoin and coming here to show us the light ?

[Rias]

No, seriously, would someone with a discussion show up and stop this insulting bullshit.

[tifozi]

Wow so many Bytecoin fans here lol. I would like to see those who are voting BitMonero post here too. Would be interesting to see why folks are voting the way they are but I can understand privacy too. I voted Monero (d'oh  )

[Rias]

Wow so many Bytecoin fans here lol.

How is it even related to Bytecoin?

[dnaleor]

silly discussion...
I will keep calling it Monero... With or without poll

Monero is a shorter and better name for marketing strategy

Why do I have the feeling that closely before the end of the 24 hours period, they will coincidentally be a lot of BMR votes?

:whistles:

Maybe because there was never an actual poll on the name, only take-over-the-control operation.

[aminorex]

BitMonero is an absolutely awful name.  This may be intended as an attack on the coin.
