at the time of the launch of 1coin tickers were pretty restrictive and everyone tried to stay withing a certain elegant area.... afterwords the evolution of the codebase and such the tickers started to get pretty tight and with the expansion it allowed for over the top tickers using even numbers although there were always exceptions to the rule like 42coin and so fourth the unspoken rule was a 3 letter ticker and unique!
the 1Coin in particular has gotten a really bad rap with these other trash coins and scams doubling up on its ticker and i honestly dont think that the 1Coin deserves the crap from another dev as its code is really nice and solid and has been running for a long time! with the slue of raunchy so called DEVS that are little more then wannabe thugs of the cryptoworld= comes trash like this and much more or often times even worst!
Ticker changed from ONE to OC.
So you can do everyone else a favor and stop crying about it. The coin you are talking might be alive, but it is not exactly kicking. It is not even on coinmarketcap.com. Am I supposed to browse throug every 20 satoshi, no buy order on some barely used exchange, half dead coin to check if the ticker is used already? It was easy to miss it, last post on btctalk was in october. So you dont have to be mean about it, it was not done intentionaly to hurt your silly coin.
