After a week-long call for entries, the poll is here. Make your mark on Zcash by voting for your favorite name for the smallest unit of Zcash (.00000001 ZEC).
also for short, Zoshi (which sounds Nintendo-y) Zooshi (which sounds yummi) or toshi (which can sound like something to sit on and something that might ‘zoot’). It’s a very rich name.
I haven’t decided yet. I also like zook, zinc and snark, and others too.
Sometimes hard to tell when people are kidding on the internet, but Tromp is a developer working on CPU mining. Not sure the names of everyone he’s competing against for bounties, but I don’t recall a Hillary among them
zookoshi was in the original nomination thread, but got no hearts. The 20 poll option limit required cutting it. zkosi is new and I like it. Reminds me of a skosh, appropriately meaning: a small amount of something.
I finally went with Zootoshi as a more whimsical alternative to the overly derivative Zatoshi. I prefer Zen or Zook, but such is life. The Zoot short form is nice.
@anon, I’m not sure whether I can edit the poll, and if I do, whether it might wipe out any current votes or not. I may dig into that.
@BetaChap do you mean you want a specific entry just for Zed, rather than one that mentions both Zed and Zet? If so, not sure, for reason stated above.
That sounds smart. There might be a greater percentage of people who are particularly fond of Zcash for more than just short term gain then too. They’re more likely to pick a name that sticks.
Obviously the poll has only persuasive influence to begin with as a way of letting everyone know what name everyone else likes. A name won’t take until people start using it in conversation. That could take some time and it may not even be a poll winner that gets used.
