yeah, I like ants too.
Is this coming announcement specifically about the name of the coin and the ticker? I wonder if they’ll talk about this in the next update then?
IDA - internet disk array.
Not to far from the meaning of our current name.
Edit. Does not seem catchy though.

Yes, indeed. But no one else likes that one. I thought it was pretty clever.

Yes, saffron is expensive, but not as much as gold:

Whale vomit aka ambergris is worth more by weight than gold I’ve read.
I would go for another name though.
From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ambergris: Ambergris is usually passed in the fecal matter → One could say that a potential ambergris coin would be an expensive shitcoin.

" Some amber bugs come at a high price, like this mating queen ant for $99,900."

Your tongue, maybe. I expect:
- Japanese: “pah-suh”
- Korean: “paso”
- Thai: “paa”
pa for short 
Send me 3000 pa and I’ll get started on the project.
I can add Papua New Guinea’s Kina, which is the name of a shell that was used as currency.
This made me think of Safe Network Actual Financial Unit

It looks like the Kina is still the name of PNG’s currency.
Yes, that is correct. The Kina shell is not so much used anymore (which is a good thing, as they are popular with the tourists).
