Fair points here. So, what would you call it? Give us your pitch for a not-raping-your-daughter coin.
How many Senator Manchins do we need to attract?
To be honest I don't see why the word "Dark" has to be relative to criminal activity... I'd say it's more relative to the anonymous aspect of the coin. The blockchain is in the dark, transactions made in darkness. Darkness provides a means to be unseen, and that's what DarkCoin is doing in a way.
I don't think it HAS to be, that's just the way it is... That's reality.
BitCoin is already being called DevilCoin by some. The point is not what rational people think. It's what the irrational public thinks. BitCoin is already thought of as CrimeCoin. DarkCoin comes out and says it... About the only way you could maybe dodge it is to call it BatManCoin...
You can't ignore the image already cast upon cryptocurrencies by the media and politicians. Yes, you and I are rational and we know better, but those who absorb propaganda and advertising are NOT. Ignoring reality doesn't change reality.
