Go on then, change the name. Darkcoin did it, others did it already. The Market has short memory so this will not even be remembered one day. That's a pity though: I personally started to like the camel.
Yes the market has short memory people will forget about silkroaddrugs.
silkroad was also involved in selling murder for hire and human trafficking, not just illegal drugs. I like the camel and silk/desert theme but, with a movie being made, it will take some time to forget. Who want to live with that stain for years? It was difficult for me to argue to keep the name when I constantly need to explain that this project has nothing to do with the darknet and/or illegal markets. It is bad for business.
The names have been decided upon and the company name, project, coins and platform will be rebranded/renamed.
The direction and focus of the project are held up with the new presentation/appearence of the new branding/names.
The final logos are being created currently and paperwork will be released, followed by a new site/domain and the eventual rebranding finishing in 2017.
This would be February. (2017)
