U make a mountain out of a molehill.

We need name anyway. If we don't show the name but the id instead then people will call assets using first 3-5 digits. And someone will create an asset with the same first digits.
Asset registration fee is set to 1000 NXT to counteract squatting.
Ian worries about someone squatting "CIYAM", well, it's a world of cryptoanarchy and laws don't work here, live with it.

Let's see if some good ideas are out there (main thread).

I *gave* you a better solution.

Allow multiple Assets with the same name.

This will cause average Joe to go "what the fuck" and stop him losing his NXT.

Why do you need to ignore my solution (your bosses are "telling you to ignore it")?

Wasn't there gona be a reputation system? Won't this help?

p.s. Don't bother to answer me if my question is irrelevant. Your time is very valuable for me!

CfB, CIYAM. Don't crush your heads together. CIYAM thinks his solution is better and CfB thinks the solution is worse.

Let's vote

Just kidding. Maybe there is a good solution out there...

Why will wesleyhs GUI be very good for Nxt? Ever heard of a good user experience?

This is similar.

So your solution is to "trick those who are stupider".

Good luck with AE - I know it is going to *fail terribly* if done your way.

I feel a negative energy in this thread and am really sad about that.

You two are smart and talented but you don't leverage this.
