I think the problem with darkcoin name, and I really like it, is that people are putting it in the same context as Darkweb and illegal activity.

The only reason we would even consider it would be to make it easier to market to the masses, we dont want it to be a darkweb coin. Techies really wouldnt care about the name but the general public might.

Again I like the name but MAYBE it would be better accepted with a friendlier name??

Agreed 100%
Why was the name chosen in the first place?

There must always be the word "coin" ? There are so much alt coins that most prefixes are taken. Cheesy

I like the idea of calling it "cash", personally, given that's the model of currency we're seeking to emulate. iCash, myCash, SecureCash, PrivateCash. MeowCash? Wink

It'd have to be a brilliant, home-run "why hasn't anyone thought of this" type name/branding. Otherwise I think it would hurt the coin more than help.

I like the name a lot. It's one of the biggest things the coin has going for it in my opinion. It's edgy and it will appeal to people who want to transfer money anonymously. The name is also way way way better than "Zerocoin", which is a terrible name by any measure..

I'm a fan of the name. A professional will probably tell us it should be changed. I think what is holding back the coin is not the name, but rather the non final implementation of DarkSend. Once that is finalized I believe it will be locked into the crypto market regardless of it's name. (I will not vote, I should be considered biased.)

I agree. If DarkSend is proven to work as advertised, nobody's going to give a shit about the name of the coin.

~~Should we change the name/logo/everything for Darkcoin to rebrand to something friendlier?~~
