Okay so it sounds like we need to:
1.) Change the logo back to what it was and do not have anything to do with The Pirate Party
2.) Change the Piratecoin abbreviation to ARR and get a new wallet compiled
3.) Get the new web site up and keep it up
4.) Get a blockchain explorer (if the original is still down)
5.) Decide together on how to promote and expose this coin to more people
6.) Find something good to be involved in with the coin (make it useful)
I personally do not like the idea of changing the whole name of the coin. I like Piratecoin better than Bootycoin and think it is a better choice. But I'm just one vote and the majority should rule.
I would just like to see some unity here and to get things running normally/smoothly like they were for a few weeks at least when this coin first came out. Then we can focus on getting bigger.
I agree, I think these are the best next steps.
I really don't think keeping the name PirateCoin necessarily "endangers" us in being associated with the Pirate Party political movement. In fact, I think it's probably best we distance ourselves from them entirely - if they want their own coin, they can (and should) make it and manage it themselves using their already-established democratic process. I, too, had never heard of it until I read about it here. Must not be particularly popular in the U.S.
Personally, I really dislike the idea of changing to Bootycoin. There is already a sexy-pirate-themed BootyCoin (
