Naming feedback is appreciated because it stimulates discussion, brainstorming, and awareness of varying viewpoints.

This domain name is not available. We want the masses to find our mining client easily.

There is a clever domain name available which contains "bitcoin". How does it help us to cause new users who want our altcoin searching for "bitcoin" to arrive at the wrong website or download the wrong client thus supporting our competitor?

We need a name that we can build as a brand, that will gain its own respect, following, and popularity. Yahoo was first, but Google is better due the PageRank algorithm. We believe our algorithms are superior.

Perhaps the title of this thread is misleading if the reader doesn't emphasize "altcoin". This is not intended to be the second official version of Bitcoin. Instead an altcoin that implements features and algorithms which the Bitcoin developers have not.


Are you thinking psyops? Psychotic coin? Or is this the Korean singer sensation PSY?

We need a name that the masses will understand means decentralized money free from government interference. This is why I voted for cyborgold despite my personal affinity for silicoin.

We probably prefer a name that is distinguished from the endless sea of altcoins with "coin" in the name, however silicoin and bionicoin are clever enough portmanteaus to perhaps make them standout from the crowd.
