      @scribus This is not a bitcoin-alike. This is just a distributed DNS based on the same principles as bitcoin. I think it's an interesting approach that is not governed by a single entity and dictate over the DNS.

        @adiwan I know, that's also probably why I care about it as a *coin.

          @scribus Ah. I admit that the name is 1) misleading and 2) stupid.

            @adiwan On that note, I'm going to lead a push to rename American cents as "dollar-coin," not to be confused with "one dollar coins."

              @scribus why not Doll-R-Coin and have a doll with an R on the chest as a symbol?
