Yes as you said you're completely wrong....never heard so much drivel from a so called investor....."inescapable connotations of race"....give me strength....you've got some serious problems if you immediately associate the colour white with race. We're a coin for gods sake. Do people associate white bread, white cars, white suits, white linen with race. Get a life.

"white bread, white cars, white suits, white linen" are not brand names.

I certainly don't mind being wrong about this. In fact, I hope I'm wrong. No need for the personal attacks, though.

He was too harsh. As you mentioned at one point in your post, the connotations come to light in reference to the cringe-worthy term "white power" being bandied about, which may have a different meaning to different people (cleaning agents anybody?). But you only have to image-search the phrase and be affronted with a slew of nazi iconic propaganda to discover it's factually and irrefutably tied in with white supremacy. Whether or not it's something to be concerned with regarding whitecoin's image, changing names is a drastic measure fraught with problems and in my opinion courting failure. Attempting to reeducate and persuade the minority of nubheads from using such a phrase isn't going to be easy either but has to be the better option.

DopeCoin! My Green Goddess!

What I'd like to address is the name: Whitecoin

For those outside of the crypto world, those who might be entering for the first time ... those who will probably not know about the blackcoin/whitecoin story and the story of the absentee dev, along with the resurrection of WC ... the name Whitecoin carries with it inescapable connotations of race. We can see examples of this every time someone throws in the phrase "white power" into the discussion, albeit tongue-in-cheek. Although I love the WC story and the community behind it, I have reservations suggesting WC to someone outside of the crypto communities ... newcomers to whom I'd give investment suggestions ... because even saying "Whitecoin" out loud sounds ... alienating ... disenfranchising.

I know that WC was never meant to harbor these subtleties, but I believe the fact remains that this undertone is inescapable ... and for a coin that I'd love to see rise to the top of mainstream acceptance, that's a pretty heavy barrier to break through. Not impossible, certainly ... but a heavy-laden barrier, nonetheless.

Additionally, WC deserves to break free from its association with Blackcoin.

I could very well be completely wrong about this and may be opening a can of worms that only adds additional difficulty at this time. If so, let this comment be buried and forgotten. If not, perhaps there is an easy solution. Perhaps a name change that incorporates the "W" might have support. Perhaps "W Coin". Or perhaps "Webcoin" (although there already exists a Webcoin that seems to have died in 2012).

Anyway, just some thoughts, for what they're worth.

What about bloodcoin? Are we gonna have a gangwar in cryptoworld? Can't we all get allong?

Anyway, if this where racial then BlackCoin is the stronger one.
I am white and support both. Why did I even bother to say my color of my skin? I hate that even the race it being brought up. It doesn't make any sense. Fuck that shit.
One thing is for sure,  This coin is still in development

And lets not go that way, I don't think that White/BlackCoin was made to think like that. YellowCoin on the other hand.... just joking. Fuck that shit.

Hey everyone:

Some thoughts from a Whitecoin investor.

I've been purchasing WC ever since the crisis began and the price started crashing, because I fell in love with the story of the community effort that rallied together and worked together to successfully raise from the ashes a coin that had plenty reason to die - but for the community that rallied behind it. I still love that story even as WC sits at below 100 sats, and it is because of the continued effort and goodwill of the community that I continue to buy WC on a daily basis at what I believe to be a bargain price. Even if the coin falls to below 50 sats, I will consider it an even better bargain and continue buying. I hold most of my WC in my wallet, and for the past couple of weeks I've enjoyed watching it stake again and again.

I am completely unconcerned about the price bottoming out because I am into WC for the long term. In fact, I'm thrilled at the opportunity to continue to buy in to this community effort ... this fabulous story that resonates with me as an embodiment of the very same qualities that made me fall in love with cryptos in the first place, the idea that the people of the world can wrest control of our economies from the corporate conglomerate banking system that by all effects has plunged our world into perpetual war and underwritten the toxification of every aspect of our planet's eco-system - our air, water and food supply. Some may think this is a bit of a stretch, but forgive me for seeing in WC a microcosm of a much bigger drama being played out. WC is the only coin out there that I've seen embody this ... which is why as the price of WC falls, I've sold my other positions and am going all in. At the risk of waxing a bit too poetic, there really is something to believe in here.

It seems that with the price of WC so low and with WC, arguably, well-removed from the spotlight - along with a new logo on the horizon - the coin is, more than ever before, at the Reset stage. Therefore, I think now may be the perfect time to address something that I think is, at the very least, worth addressing. I bring this up because I want to be in for the long, long term. Cryptos, in general, I feel, are a long way from mainstream acceptance and use ... but when that day eventually arrives ... and I am confident that it will ... I hope WC is right there with the best of the coins.

Very well thought out...and spoken sentiments...thanks eddienova!  A lot of us hear believe the exact same thing...and act the same way by buying in every single day...

I do see your concerns on the name... My personal opinion is that that ship has sailed, but I could be wrong, who knows.  I don't think that people immediately associate the name with race, but since I am "white" (whatever that means) I might not be as sensitive to that.  Of course when I hear blackcoin, I don't think of race their either...

 Sad this coin needs to put out a clear message stating why its better than the other alts . and the guy above is right a name change would be good. has it stands just seems like a blackcoin clone. i know people keep claiming this is a long term investment but a drop from 2000 sat + to sub 100 sat is very bad if you factor in the time comunity wasted picking a logo i mean what gives this is money guys and girls not candy . you want investors get more seriouse . make your own comunity pool ect . change the name has suggested above. invest some of your own cash in the coin like some of us have. if coin tanks so low then dont be suprised when it dies completly whilst we busy trying to choose a logo common guys this is a joke?

Nice to see a coin racing to keep up with Doge. Shocked

Ok, this is funny  Grin

Everyone is aware of the initial WC internal problems. Now we have competing coins that go crazy (Blackcoin) and Bitcoin rising.

I don't blame people that finally decide to sell because recovering a coin takes time.

Doge is killed by its inflation and maintenance costs. WC is very different, it *only* needs work and support. 


We should premote our subreddit to the shibe's.. Smiley

Always wanted to mine dogecoin but can't get the hardware? Buy whitecoin. It's proof of stake which means you can mine more just by hodling it!

There's tons of whitecoin on Ebay! Well, actually, there isn't.. but..

How is this coin working out for everybody?  I tried to help misinformed people a month ago that this coin was a disastser waiting to happen.  It's not FUD if it's fact.  You guys are patching a sinking ship and you're all going down with it.
