RU are slowly losing the plot?

Come on bud... you have been a supporter for a very long time. Be happy. Enjoy the ride.

maybe it does to you, but you also aren't a market expert ;]

i think it's going to work out just lovely 

congrats - VERGE!

Yeah i hear ya on the newbie status.
besides Dogedarkdev still sounds cool anyway

great pick and long live VERGE 

thanks! yes, at first i was rather against the idea myself, but i really put alot of thought into it, and i think we will be taken alot more seriously with a new name.

there will be no preconceptions as to what we are, and when people find out that we are the only coin offering this kind of privacy/security, i think it will spread.

and right now is a great time for people to come in while we are at such a low satoshi due to the cryptsy mess.

ps: yeah i've already taken the name VERGEdev (in our irc channel and here on bitcointalk, however i will most likely keep this account when i start a new ANN, so people arent frightened of the newbie status.)

P.S
Dogedarkdev, does that mean you will now be known as VergeDEV  or  DEVerge.  

But seriously Congrats on the rebrand, It must have been a difficult decision to make.

I Really admire your dedication to what you have created. And i am really looking forward to what lies ahead for VERGE.

Well said. I couldn't agree with you more.

Even though i voted for COGS, I believe the 2 most important things have occurred.

1. No association with doge.

2. Dogedarkdev is happy with the name. He has put a lot of effort into this great coin. So VERGE is good enough for me.

If this was my coin. i would want to be comfortable with a new name too. if i really wasn't happy, i could risk loosing a little bit of passion for the coin.

As i have always stated, I would own these coins under any name (within reason of course)  And the fact that it is 1 syllable is a bonus i believe.

At the end of the day this currency is about privacy and security, And not about being the greatest name ever. Names do grow on people remember.

So you have my full support Dogedarkdev.    

hopefully we don't clog up this thread with why peoples preferred names should have been chosen instead of VERGE. that would just end up going around in circles.

As it is impossible to have a new name that is liked by 100% of the community. And lets face it, VERGE is definitely not a crap name.

Things like MTGOX and CRYPTSY etc  have made it obvious, that privacy and security must now reach new levels.

And what d-ya know. This crypto-currency HAS reached a new level of privacy and security.

We are now on the VERGE of a new era in Crypto-currency privacy and security.  

Congrats Dev!

& now HERO Dev!!

DEV deserves the VERGE, send it to him

Ok people, dev has spoken & domains purchased.

Verge is the name... Lets not give dev any grief.

I know its probably too late.. but...

Clear
Clear Currency/Coin/Cyrpto

CLR

Represents that your transactions can not be seen, undetecable - clear.

in all of europe, and north america, it means edge. and thanks!

the important thing to remember, is VERGE will have the most privacy resources out of any other coin.

this is the currency that people can use, without worrying that people are able to see their balance, but also their actual location.

i believe people are seeing all these hacks lately, and wising up, and taking more security measures on their computers.

user privacy is a must!

That's the only meaning of the word I've ever known until recently hearing about it being a french penis in the 1400's or the "edge" of a lords authority. It is also natural to me to use Verge for the plural without an S it just sounds strange with an S.

I dunno, man, I'm going off the dictionary.  The most common current meaning is:

The edge meaning is the number 2 most common meaning.  Besides the plural form under any of the historical and modern uses being totally weird, an "edge" is both corporeal and incorporeal. Corporeally, an edge as a currency is definitely unique, but it makes little sense - you can't point to that definition and then re-appropriate the word's meaning to peoples' understanding of money very well using that same definition and knowing other definitions - one more common - also exist.  Likewise, incorporeally, the definition and concept are the opposite of how money has existed and been understood since the days of wampum (not a battle really worth fighting right now by DOGED IMHO). In essence, I think it will be a real challenge to carve out an understanding of a "verge" as a unit of money (also weird in the singular) that people will understand intuitively within 5 seconds - but maybe that challenge will be really fun.  Not trying to be negative here, I just have a different opinion on the choice and wished the decision calculus and process on this choice made more sense to me. I'd be lying if I said I thought the polling was not manipulated or that the goal posts w/ this deliberative process were not a moving target.  

Anyway, and sincerely, good luck to all with this project.

yeah that was a great name choice. im glad alot of people voted.

i dig it. and if people want it to refer to the meaning of it in the 1400's, thats fine by me. virgin girls and penis only adds more machismo  

but yeah, i like the english definition, plus it just sounds good.

while being a cryptocurrency, our private network puts us on the outer edge of internet traffic, away from the mainstream where ip's are leaked everywhere and everything is easily traced/hacked.

i think its important especially of late, that people start paying more attention to how they use the internet, and to start trying to use more privacy enabled software, for everything they do.

and btw, yes all coins will be fine. we arent resetting the blockchain or anything.. the network is staying the same, and we'll have a brand spankin new nicer looking wallet =]

VERGE          i believe i was the 5th vote on that. I think it's a great name. CryptoCurrencyNetworks idea? Kudos to who came up with that. I got some VERGE to send you
