Thanks, I just figured out the name for my new cryptocurrency:
Modern Coin (MC, ModCo, m-coin, ...)
Just after 'shipping' I read a very good article about Zygmunt Bauman in the French monthly 'La Decroissance' (highly recommended!), and realised, of course, Bitcoin is all about 'liquid modernity'. Which may also explain why the hype lasts so long and flies so high. And may be last forever, forever being taken as till the next switch, which should not be long coming.
