lets rename it dogecoin

You win

The idea of Optional privacy has me nervous..

We need to look at the practical reality of it.
A coin with an *optional* privacy feature with it will be deemed an "ANON" coin.
And as soon as you go down that road you NOW have enemies !
Such as world govt's will want to break the system etc.
People *WILL* use it to buy Meth and Grenades online etc..

And we already have had for 6/7 years the world thinking Bitcoin is used on Silk Road to buy Crack + AK47's

I hope the LTC guys will see the potential ramifications of their actions.. if choosing ANON features.

On the flip side i have a suggestion.

What is the barrier to Litecoin ? BITCOIN !
It can't beat Bitcoin (which is why people want to add anon features to LTC) ..to try and beat BTC.
So..
Want to beat BTC ?
Want something different to set you apart from the other 6,000 ANN topics ?
Want to get REAL adoption ?

Rather than making the coin anonymous.. make it the opposite.. more transparent and compliant with regulations.

Just think of it guys.. want a coin adopted ?
Be the VERY FIRST coin EVER in the history of crypto to be GOVERNMENT FINANCIAL REGULATIONS FRIENDLY !

I guarantee this would put Litecoin first in line when it comes to world adoption with Banks and payment processors etc.
It would also spring board business into using it by providing the security that is afforded by financial regulations.

Is some business going to trust stolen GOX Bitcoins ?
Or trackable coins from a new coin ? That is ANTI-ANON.

I get the whole rebellious decentralized free market spirit of things.. i support that !
But we need to be realistic here guys.
We need to break through the adoption barrier wall !
We have to start somewhere and we need to make some progress.. so far we have done squat since 2013.

Seriously think about the ANTI-ANON coin idea guys.

Early Cuyler could use LTC to buy another Truck for his Truck Boat Truck !
Or maybe he just bought Truck Coin and then had it "rebranded" to HYP Coin ? Sorry i got mixed up LOL
