The image is a placeholder, right? Kinda pixelated and poor quality as-is...

@jeandudey Please note that the suggested name is "Corrr" (three R) and not "Corr" (two R).

It might not sound important but the third R really underscores that the money printer is running at full capacity.

Somewhat related: "corr" might be misinterpreted as "correlation" and it should be noted that correlation does not imply causation. Correlation is fragile. Causation is robust (like Bitcoin Corrr).

Sorry my mistake, this isn't a blocker for me, of course the correct "Corrr" should fixed ASAP.

Not a strong opinion though.

Concept ACK, I think this is really going with the times which is good, but also this only makes sense if it includes a fork to give a trillion BTC in stimulus measures to us.

I think the pixelated logo is a strong statement: "I'm in it for the technology. BRRRRRRRR"

Excuse me, you may not know this but while it's fine to rebrand to Bitcoin Corr, the CNetMessageType Buffer is only allowed to be 12 characters long so I'm worried we might have some network issues with the name Bitcoin Corrr as it's 13 characters. As a suggestion, maybe we can just use the name "Bitcorrrn" which is I think more clear to users about the quality of the software they are receiving.

I always support a new logo and rebranding. Not implementing a new, completly arbitrary monetary policy change feels like a wasted oBRRRtunity.
NACK!

I think we should emphasize that bitcoin is magic internet money, so doesn't need something as trivial as a printing press, here's an alternative proposal:

"The %s corps" might be a better signal of the strength of our commitment to ensuring there is enough Bitcoin for everyone.

Concept ACK -- this will make the user-adoption skyrocket!

May I suggest a small follow-up PR reflecting the new awesome logo:
Changing the following annoying line

nSubsidy >>= halvings;

to

nSubsidy <<= halvings;

With this modern monetary policy, we will fight poverty, and recreate social justice, a.k.a. everyone will be rich. I'm aware that the subsidy could overflow in the long run, but in the long run we will all be dead.

Concept ACK, I think this is really going with the times which is good, but also this only makes sense if it includes a fork to give a trillion BTC in stimulus measures to us.

I think we should let the free market decide which devs to reward - let's implement separate forks for each individual contributor to this repo (1 trillion BTC per dev) that can be individually signalled using version bits.

NACK. IMO it's misleading as it suggests Core can create more money out of thin air like central banks do, but that is not true.

Very good improvement!

I'm also suggesting to remove this check:

I hate it when I can't spend the money I don't have, this is currently a major usability issue with Bitcoin. Fixing this will surely bring about mass adoption.

Does this commit automatically enable the end user to receive his Bitcoin Corrr stimulus package?
