I propose to follow the advice Andreas Antonopoulos gave to the Canada's Senate Committee regarding the lawmakers' approach to bitcoin: "Do nothing! And let the technology grow."
Giving something a totally toxic name that stops it from growing isn't "doing nothing".
Give me a break. It eludes me how such an intelligent man as yourself could have made such ridiculous arguments:
"TOXIC NAME"
If it was a "
totally toxic name" for the last 12 months why you're in it?

Tell me, please, how this totally toxic name has stopped Darkcoin's growth?
Per Fernando, Tao, and others "Some big payment processor and exchanges we have approached have repeatedly complained about the name. This doesn't mean they will adopt us straight away, but we would be making it easier for them."
