Hey artos, what do you think of this comment? It was just posted to the StableCoin subreddit and I find myself kind of agreeing, because I was trying to think of nicknames for it the other day.
It seems a lot of people like the coin but the branding seems off. Developers aren't marketers, understandably, however when we look at successful names and brands they normally have a common theme of two syllable names or shorter (exception Microsoft). Example: Bitcoin, Litecoin, Facebook, Walmart, Costco, Samsung. You get the point...
I get what they are trying to do with the name, but to me it just doesn't roll off the tongue. This could ultimately be a downfall of stablecoin. It's awkward saying "here let me pay for that with my stablecoin", opposed to, here I have some bitcoin for you.
I wish the dev hired a marketer, emulated bitcoins logo by putting the money lines through the "s" changed the name. Sigh. That's my vent, thanks for listening.
