RE: Steem Poll: What Should Be The Name Of The Smallest Steem Denomination? Cast Your Votes!

in #steem8 years ago

Both of your choices have some heavy usage already in the Ethereum network (there is literally gas used for transactions, and their browser used to be called Mist - or it may still be called like that, I don't know). I think it's worth knowing that Steem was intended as a measurement form of esteem, it's not coming from Steam. AFAIK, anyway.

"I think it's worth knowing that Steem was intended as a measurement form of esteem"

Well then how about Rosen? Coming from the Rosenberg Self-esteem scale, which is the most widely used. Or perhaps another variation of the term?

Had now idea about Rosenberg Self-esteem scale, thanks for bringing that up. It's an interesting proposal.

But people think about steam, so maybe we should try to have a similar effect for the small unit.

drop - trop or drib?

drop sounds actually nice, but it has also the verb significance, like "drop it". Which, combined with the concept of steem, may have unexpected results.

Ill keep thinking. Thank You
