Re: [ANN] (WC) | WhiteCoin | BIG NEWS: Foundation, investors & more ☯ whitecoin.info
looks like XWT is no longer an option, it was stolen by another altcoin.
the longer this is delayed, the less options will be available
*Why not XWC ? non compliant?
* XAL (latin variant meaning?)
Therefore, my order would be:
1. XWC
2. XWT
3. XAL
Glad you keep this alive
updated list of possible currency codes:
XWC - ISO standards compliant - WC taken from WhiteCoin
XWH - ISO standards compliant - WH taken from first two letters of WhiteCoin
XWT - ISO standards compliant - because it goes along nicely with Bitcoin's XBT code
XAL - ISO standards compliant - AL taken from first two letter of Albus which is latin for "white" - same naming convention as GOLD which has currency code XAU (from latin "Aurum" for Gold)
WC - not ISO standards compliant - also has a negative EU/ASIA stigma (water closet/toilet)
WTC - not ISO standards compliant - also has negative USA stigma (world trade center)
edit: unfortunately XAN is already used by another alt
so XAM which is free
XAM - ISO standards compliant - AM taken from first letters of Albus and Moneta which is latin for "white" and "coin" - same naming convention as GOLD which has currency code XAU (from latin "Aurum" for Gold)
we could maybe even get some unofficial voting going on here in this thread to test the waters, see whats the sentiment of community:
1. account older than 5 months
2. to keep it simple, use (like) for one or more currency code options
3. ranking - sorted by sum of (like) votes for each option
the longer this is delayed, the less options will be available
well well would you look at that, bitcoin is going for ISO currency code compliancy.

I like XAL. Let's pick one and also will need to make a master list of people, sites and the like to update.
