You are going to need to come up with something more unique than Dash, since Dashcoin already exists and other people will confuse it for this or simply call it dashcoin anyway!

There are thousands of failed altcoin projects by now, the names are starting to be like old domain names. The development team acquired the rights to the name from a small abandoned crypto project "Dashcoin" although it was never intended to use the suffix "coin".

Thus we are now DASH, but thanks for watching our backs, it is all taken care of though.

+1 nzminer original dashcoin since july 5, 2014

still mining dashcoin and trading at poloniex

edit: using the words, "starting to be like old domain names" and "small abandoned crypto project" sounds like your trying to make it look dead. anyway at least post a link to show how the so called "acquired rights to the name" is really acquired

I am just trying to be helpful by sharing information. The DASH dev team did acquire the rights to that project from the original developer, signed a formal contract and registered the trademark. Also, took over the Github account, the github is locked and development will not continue.

Here is the current state of the DSH market:



I was surprised to learn that you were still mining and trading.  I don't have any more information besides what I already shared, if you have further questions you can direct them to the original developer of that project.

yup i'm still mining..that's what decentralization is all about.

signed a formal contract and registered the trademark <----link? is it legal?

as far as i know this is open source software, dashcoin and many crypto currency like bitcoin is owned by the community. people who mine and bought dashcoin have the right to call their coin "dashcoin".

dashcoin github account is forked by the way.
