Great name imo
Yeah i gave it some thought and came to the conclusion XCurrency sounds to "economical" for everyday people. thats great for the platform but not for the coin itself. XPay would close that gap.
XC has some old man dust on it for various reasons that hinder a lot of people to connect with it on a emotional level which is also important for mass adoption. XC gets often compared to apple, well they got that shit down and we not quiet yet.
I sometimes get the impression the write ups of our Press releases are almost "too good" from an articulation and writing style point of few. I personally take great joy in people like synechist that talk and think outside the box but lets face it, majority of people rather get put of if they can't relate to someone or something and XC presentation while one of a kind gives me that expression sometimes of beeing to "special". i don't want street talk but a little more peoples language would be better i think.
thats not personal synechist , i love your writing style in this thread but for the public image it shoul be more accessible. Right now XC looks like some project of only University professors 50+ if you only read about it in the media and not in here.
XC is technically the best. period. and we who know can buy still cheap cause XC on the other hand is not cool atm. for mass adoption that has to change.
thats reminds me: one thing was unclear to me, second paragraph:
- since this network is a mesh, it does not encounter problems if nodes drop out of the network during the transaction. Thus it's robust against DOS attacks (i.e when a node refuses to sign, which breaks other technologies, like CoinJoin).
Fail to understand the link between a 'bad node' (fail to sign can be intentional if i understand it correct) & DOS, Atm think the terms 'multisig' & 'transaction timeout' are needed to explain the reaction to that event or even a split of that bullet between tech problems or a deliberate attempt to steal the coins that sould be forwarded
