Ultimately the market decides but it will need sometime to make up its mind. I truly believe this is for the best and I am more excited than ever to call on businesses for Dash, it will be fun. I will work full time calling to businesses to adopt Dash for the next few months. It is a way easier sell, when I propose Dash people will wait to understand what it is. When I call for Darkcoin they make up their mind before I have time to explain.

My experience exactly Minotaur. The name is toxic beyond toxic. It would never have achieved anything like the adoption the world deserves to experience with this technology with the Darkcoin name.
It's interesting reading the past few pages. Many of the people that are screaming and baling are also people that openly talk about dark market adoption and express excitement about how this is going to really push Darkcoin to new and higher levels. For me, Evan's announcement virtually directly tackles this, an absolute inhibitor of his work being taken seriously by the mainstream and an absolute guarantee that (with the Darkcoin name) he would eventually be characterised as a criminal and friend of the illicit drug industry, terrorists and pedophiles.
For the many that are really pissed off, you've all been so happy to be associated with Evan and you've all been so thrilled with his work, but now when he takes steps to ensure survivability of his work, protect himself and his family's reputation, you scream and throw your toys out of the pram. Really, that's a selfish and terribly narrow minded response.
I'm very happy Evan's taken this action. Yes, it's taken guts and it's causing a temporary shuffling of the deck chairs of who's involved, who's no longer wanting to be here (with considerable short term disruption/upset) but he's too good a developer, an entrepreneur and a human being to be taken down (as he inevitably would have been) as the head of the nefarious and illegal activity promoting "Darkcoin".
As Dash, the future is exciting and we'll enter thousands of realms we never would have come even close to as Darkcoin.
Great work Evan; onwards and upwards!
Agreed. You're never going to win 100% of the community with a move such as this but those that made the tough choices are the ones that actually see the long-term picture.
