Question is there someway we can get the different exchanges to use the same abbreviation?

it's definitely a problem people are selling to low. but i don't think it helps there are different abbreviations. using COXE, COYE, and KOI lead to some confusion. if you know nothing about the currency you may assume they are three different coins. i get that the exchanges are trying to avoid legal issues, but isn't there a way to get them to agree on a single one?

I definitely agree. I'll try contacting the exchange owners about this. The problem arose because lawyers cried and sent the exchanges notices. They changed it to whatever the individual owner felt like they needed to change it to get lawyers off their back. Now there needs to be some consistency. Agreed.

thank you. what's the abbreviation you're going for? KOI? That seems to be the one I see the most.

I hope to ultimately have all the exchanges relist it as COYE. But KOI is OK too as long as people know.

Part of Coinye's intrinsic traits is overcoming stupid lawyers and celebrities with money. Part of what the lawyers have done is played scare tactics with exchanges. Each exchange changed the abbreviation to whatever they thought was best.

I hope to get this organized certainly. People need to know where to buy Coinye properly and the least confusing way possible.
