I wonder why you haven't searched the name on Google before jumping into the void. I guess that's the first step while creating a name for a project or a company.
Well, at least if you are clever, you can promote it into the Mr. Robot's community, maybe someone is a potential investor.
Cheers,
The name was chosen long before Mr. Robot ever mentioned the name ecoin.
From looking into it, that episode aired about two months ago: https://steemit.com/mrrobot/@titusfrost/mr-robot-s-ecoin-v-s-bitcoin
We definitely did a name search, all that was found was the Wirex, formally known as E-Coin (a name that they abandoned with their rebranding).
If want, you can check the Secretary of State's website for State of Colorado, and you will see that we registered on the 4th of July 2016 (months before the Mr. Robot episode you refer to).
The name similarity is nothing more than a very, weird irony.
Alright, my failure then. And about e-coin, the domain (e-coin.io) remains up which can lead to a poor SEO. I don't know how you might solve that problems, but I definitely see a consistent project. Good luck with it.
