one thing I thought about, is that if the blockchain tech & wallet tech are interesting enough to some big hands (big companies) there could always be a rebrand of doged to something more professional. I really like this community, and the doged moniker, but it's more or less up to the developer if he ever decided to go that route- if anything like that ever happened or was discussed.
in any case, this coin is going places, that's for sure. i have taken a few mill off the marker. great job dogedev. keep it up!!
A couple of times I have suggested looking at a name change - but the DOGED community did not get behind it. Either way I am happy as DogedDev is a Legend!
I've suggested in the past to change the name to just DOGED specially after Palmer left Dogecoin the project is not what it was and many think of DogecoinDark as a spin-off while DOGED has surpassed it imo and taken a completely different path. Unfortunately many see DogeCoinDark name as a satire and have zero knowledge of what it really is! DOGED is a great coin great features and just keeps on expanding virtues very few coins in all of cryptoworld can say they achieved.
Hello DOGED community. have not posted in a while, but i do think that maybe the word Doge in the name of this awesome coin is holding it back a little. Some people must think that Dogeanything is just a doge spin off, and not even attempt to look at the coin for that reason alone. but those of us that have been here since DOGED launched know how active this Dev is, how helpful this Dev is, how dedicated this Dev is, put's other Dev's to shame
But i thought i might add my 2 cent's worth with a few names.
TORNETCOIN COVERTCOIN HUSHCOIN DARKNETCOIN UNTRACECOIN Some way of letting people know that this is a much more discreet coin for those who like that fact.
but also to let people know that this coin has an active,helpful,dedicated Dev. And a very upbeat and positive community to boot.
DCYPHERCOIN as mentioned above sounds pretty cool. I do think that marketing plays a big factor in the success of any coin, and marketing of a coin really depends on the community "US" .Maybe if we all come up with some possible marketing ideas we can get this coin really noticed.
Idea 1 maybe start a new thread about ACTIVE,HELPFUL,DEDICATED DEV'S and their coins. that would narrow things down to a small handful of Dev's, and of course our Dev
would get mentioned as number 1
again just my 2 cents worth
Not bad suggestions for name, but I would suggest leaving "COIN" out of any name.
"
scrypt"
the name and algo
sounds like the historical "script" money of the American revolution (

Not sure about scrypt as it might be confusing. Scrip might work. Look at the definition here:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scrip and focus on the modern uses section, particularly on Community Issued Scrip. Likewise, consider this quote from that wikipedia entry:
" Scrips have been created for payment of employees under the truck system, and for use in local commerce at times when regular currency was unavailable"
The second clause is interesting in the context of the bitcoin blocksize debate. DOGED could be thought of as a substitute for btc when transactions can't process or even for everyday transactions too small to travel directly on the btc blockchain. Could be a nice hook for DOGED. Of course, "Scrip" also can have a negative connotation in that some companies treated scrip as a form of IOUs when they were cash-poor or just greedy. Also, in the early days, when railroads were being built etc, scrip could sometimes could only be spent at a company's own store - the same company that issued the scrip (a little shady, sorta similar to some small block + lightning proponents).
