I mean there wouldn't be anything wrong with having the name editable and that change would be stored on the blockchain. but it would be nice to have a general "notes" field that was stored locally. that would make it a lot more difficult for scammers to trick people with almost no cost.

Got it - although I would think that once you've decided on which AnonSilver you *trust* then you'd just get the client to *hide* any others with the same name (as it would be pretty unlikely that you are going to buy and sell more than one Asset of the same name).


Even if not hidden, buying untrusted assets could be rejected by the server. You won't mistakenly buy an asset if you have not manually added the issuer to the trust list.

yes that sounds right to me. i doubt we will run into many situations where we have multiple legit assets with the same name. that would probably be a better solution than the ability to store notes for assets locally.

important point to specify is that that field be stored locally not on the blockchain.

*edit* just to head of that argument before it even begins

Oh - in that case we are just talking about using localStorage or the like (so a client only thing).

Perhaps Wesley might add that in the same sort of way that he has implemented Contacts.

JL has already made the changes so that Asset name is no longer "unique" and I think we should stick with that.

The idea of perhaps making the Description (or another new field) "editable" seems like a reasonable one for consideration.

how about increasing the number of digits used to identify assets?  This coupled with the now non-unique "name" (I like to use the work description now, since they arent unique) should allow us to reduce the fee charged with issuing an asset. 

I like the change to non-unique as it completely removes the idea of squatting

Hey you know what would be important to be unique for asset!?!

I would make impossible for two assets to have the same name and description simultaneously. I mean name and description taken separatly can be non-unique but the full string asset.name+asset.description should be unique.  This would avoid the need to always check the asset id before buying and the side effect to remove some of the spam copycat.
What you think about that?


too easy to workaround. The description can be quite long, any changed word would make it not be identical.

Many good ideas and suggestions!

Only numbers and letters are allowed in asset names currently,plus it is too long 10 char  limit

Clearly, asset require an additional editable field with longer than 10char!  If more than 10char cost space in blockchain, then make issue asset cost more than 1000nxt.  

I think we're getting this mixed up.

ASSET names can not be longer than 10 chars at the moment. The description is a much longer space.

I agree the asset needs an editable field, just can't be the name or description.

YEs, thing got mix a bit.  Cheesy
I don't know all the detail of AE.

So,at the moment,  we are 3 that think that asset need an additional editable field . Maybe more will join and give his opinion on this subject. I think that would be a good addition before AE launch.

Just saw a really good idea on XCP forum:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.5773807

It is about asset naming and it is very simple and I think quite effective.
Basically once you own an Asset Name, then you can create a subasset for a much lower fee. this essentially allows branding of the root name and then people will know that anything that starts with that is from the same issuer

So Anon gets his Anon136 asset name. Now he can issue:

Anon136.silver1oz
Anon136.silvershot
Anon136.silveretc

It still has a squatting issue with it, but now the squatters have to squat on the names of the issuers, not the target asset. This is far riskier as if a specific name is taken, there are always others that can be used. Unlike "BTC", which is unique.

If we are going to change the NXTcore for asset names, this one might be worth doing.


James


it could still collide if someone else registered Anon136.silver10z
