(NeedsDefinition) Define a name for POA ERC20 token

[rstormsf]

https://github.com/poanetwork/parity-bridge/blob/master/contracts/bridge.sol#L267

    string public name = "ForeignBridge";

it will be shown on every DEX. we also need to add symbol = "POA" in order to follow ERC20 standard

I propose for "POA ERC20" as a name of the token

@akolotov, @igorbarinov thoughts?

[igorbarinov]

Я думал про POA20 для упрощения ПиОЭй Туени есть примеры использовация чисел в имени токена кстати?

[igorbarinov]

I meant POA20 Are there any examples of using numbers in a token name?

[rstormsf]

name doesn't matter, symbol is more important. Name could be "POA erc20 representation", etc. symbol should be short

Sure, I don't think it's good to have POA on POA and POA on Foundation because it's ambiguous POA20 will state that it is ERC20 compatible token. ERC now EIP. I suppose we can leave only the number which will identify the nature of token

[rstormsf]

ok, should we have

name = 'POA ERC20 Foundation'
symbol = 'POA20'

?

[akolotov]

The funny thing is that POA20 could be read as 'POA 2.0' :)

[banteg]

What about WPOA akin to WETH (wrapped ether)?

[igorbarinov]

didn't know about weth more info https://weth.io/

[igorbarinov]

I like

• Alex point of POA 2.0. Tokenized native currency sounds like high level of abstraction
• that it's easy to pronounce "pí ó é twɛ́nti" than "də́bəlyu pí ó é"

[akolotov]

@rstormsf should we close it?

[igorbarinov]

I'd like to add on

name = 'POA ERC20 on Foundation'
symbol = 'POA20'

I'm fine with it

[akolotov]

So, @rstormsf please close this issue as soon as you update the contract in https://github.com/poanetwork/poa-parity-bridge-contracts

[igorbarinov]

@akolotov he'll assing it to himself in Waffle and move to bottom so we'll know it's less important

[akolotov]

@rstormsf could we have a final tool/script/whaterver in the repo which will be used to deploy token contract. The name and symbol of the token will be specified there as so we can manage it through source control system.

[rstormsf]

? @akolotov it's just a contract with parameters...what do you want? https://github.com/poanetwork/poa-parity-bridge-contracts/blob/upgradable/migrations/3_upgradeable_deployment.js#L19
