its very problematic if they use same ticker that other project already take and use it, imagine if the both token listed on same exchange, the user for exchange will get confused why there is 2 pay ticker on that exchange, i think the team should disccus with their board to change ticker instead using already exist ticker.
From what I have observed in short time about them, it's going to be sorted. The team is very caring and they listen to the community properly, so it's not a big deal. I consider them to really move to higher gears in coming days.
