Oct. 8th — DREP Chinese name collection voting came to a close with Oliver Zhou who won with his proposal “誉膳坊(Yu Shan Fang, literally means reputation cuisine workshop) by gaining the most votes. Her reasoning behind the name has gained large popularity for its creativity: in pronunciation, Yu Shan Fang sounds the same as the private kitchen for emperors in ancient dynasties. This name is easy to remember and widely popular among Chinese foodies. What’s more, it also implies that DREP can “cook” a most reputable “recipe” (product). Also, the Fang here is the same ending as Ethereum’s Chinese translation “以太坊”, so the name is quite trendy. Please follow DREP’s WeChat account for more details.
