The Intro Video for our new Tech/Blockchain related Channel || Steem giveaway + Chance to win SBD if you help us name our channel!
Over the last 2 weeks, Sarah Louise @ultravioletmag and I (Enrica - my real name or Red, as most of you know me as) have been working closely to get our Intro Video ready for our new Tech/Blockchain related channel.
With this new channel, we really hope to be able to bridge the gap between the tech world and the general public, by showcasing the real world value of blockchain technology and exciting tech projects, and by doing so in a fun, relatable and easy to understand way. We really want to see mass adoption of blockchain technology, and believe that to do this, we need to help get the information out there in ways the general public can relate to the most!
There are 2 parts to our video, please watch it to understand this project we're starting!
Part 1- Our introduction
(0:00-3:14)
Just a brief intro about who we are, why we're starting this channel and what we want to do with this channel!
Part 2- Channel Name Brainstorming
(3:14-5:48)
We had some fun brainstorming some possible names for the channel using keywords like "blockchain" and "tech".
We think we've found our favourite name through making this video - unblockED - but we really want to know what YOU think and if you can think of something even better!
I know the fonts used in the video aren't great, please rest assured we will have our design and branding more fine tuned by the time we set up our new channel!
Steem Giveaway + Chance to win 35 SBD if we decide to use your suggestion as our name!
To enter: You have to watch our video first! And please resteem this post!
Do you have any name suggestions for us, after watching our video and getting to know what we're about?
We will be rewarding the best name ideas/suggestions with 1-10 Steem (You will be notified if so, and Steem will be transferred to your wallet after post payout). If there are any repeats, only the first person will be rewarded ;)
If we find a name suggestion, that is even better than the one we really like so far - unblockED, that person may find themselves 35 SBD richer! If not, Hopefully everyone will have had fun with this and enjoyed this little Steem giveaway!
Please note: However great/fun/hilarious the name suggestions we get are, we have the final say in what we name our channel 😉
If you like the sound of what we're doing here, please upvote, comment, resteem, give us any suggestions or just send us good intentions 🙂
Thank you for checking this out! Can't wait to see what you all come up with!!
Much Love from us

Thanks!! But come on Waybe, I'm sure you can come up with more :P
This is going to be huge!
Is this your name suggestion Ade??? :P
Hehe thanks either way, we're excited to see where this could go!
Around the Block
Chain Reaction
Two Blocks Down :)
I really like 2 blocks down
Sweeeet!
We did think of chain reaction did it not make cut I can’t remember now lol around block is also cool but could give us a bad rep 🙈
lol.. yeah. that's not the rep you want haha.
🤣
Probably not :P
It would be just like Hgh School all over again. “Oh there’s round the block Rica!” You made quite the nane for yourself.
Just you wait <3
Haha we said the same thing!
That’s the best name suggestion yet :)
two blocks up?
Awesome guys! Definitely going to be a cool channel to follow and as far as the name thing goes, maybe—
BlockUV-red
Blockchain-uncUVeRED (or some variation of this idea that’s appealing to you all)
🤷🏼♀️🙈

Hi, best of luck with the new channel. My suggestion for a name would be 'Women Unchained' as it uses chain to suggest the blockchain and tech connection and unchained to show you are Women who can talk about tech and blockchain in a predominantly male world. And its also a play on the song title 'Woman in Chains' . Just my thoughts, I think the channel name needs to give a clue about the content but younhave the description to fill in more detail. My other thought was 'Blockheads' !
Will be awaiting the first episode :-)
I really appreciate the comment and thoughts, but "women unchained" has too many innuendos
unfortunately hahah, so will probably never make the cut :( Also as @ultravioletmag has said, although we know we could milk the fact that we're women and make a catchy name out of it to attract viewers/followers, we'd rather steer away from that and have a gender neutral name :)
And as much as Blockheads sounds cool, it also sounds too much like Blackheads to me! haha I'm very picky with names sorry!
Hahahahaha the black heads!!! Yeah we don’t want anything that could be easily changed to something terrible 🤣
We really didn’t want to make it about ‘women’ per say even tho we are both girls. We don’t want to separate ourselves off as women more than is naturally going to happen. I rly like blockheads tho reminds me of a game show ?
Hmm was the game show youre thinking about 'Blockbusters' ? You could start your show with 'I'll have a P please Red!' .....Im 52...you'd have to old to remember this crap :-(
It was egg heads!!! Close hAha
lol, I dont know eggheads, but then I havent lived in the UK for 7 years and haven't owned a TV for nearly 15...hence my only point of reference being a 25 year old kids TV quiz show!
He likes to impress the family with his general knowledge hAha
I've never heard of Eggheads either!!
I also hvnt owner a tv for around 15 years but when I go home my dad is always watching these quiz shows
No there is one called the something heads I’m sure I don’t watch tv but seen my dad watching it
Bloody hell, I'd hate to get on the wrong side of you two lol....but joking apart, youre right to be fussy with the name. Its such an important part of branding yourselves.
I cant wait to see what you finally stick with though!
🤣🤣
Hahaha thanks for being such a great sport :)
We can't wait to see what we finally stick with either!!
Great! Love to see this channel succeed and bridge the tech coming from the tech world into the real world in layman's terms.
I like your favourite as well as my favourites: Tech Unblocked, Off The Chain, unBlock My Chain (could have some other meaning...), Technically It's Chained, Chained and Whipped... I think this is going off topic now... 😂😂😂

Off th chain is cool !
Funny I was just joking about "Unblock my chain" earlier, it's too easy for innuendos these names hahaha
Thanks for the support :D
So many, but I had to stop otherwise other Steemians might start giving looks 👀
You're welcome and look forward to hearing the final verdict.
Posted using Partiko Android
Let them look haha :P
Thanks, let's hope we find the name soon!
Please keep them coming we have decided we are very open to it being more open than blockchain so keep the more general ones coming too!
OK sure, thought of some, but nothing outstanding, yet you might get an idea from looking at these - "Disruptive" - from disruptive technology, "B2T" - Blockchain to Technology, "Blochelorette" - a play on words with the name and show - Bachelorette, "Tech Babes", "Tech (in) Bytes", "A Check on Tech", "Immune To Tech", "Overload", "Error 404", "Access", "Connected", "Rise", "The Rising", "Talking Tech".... Those are just a few.

UltravioletRed?, BlockInTheChainyHouses? Chaingasm? Chaining Around? Don't Buy Their Shit Coin? Shit Coin Detectors? BlockchainBullshit? Started on Steem? Steem Sausages? ToSteemFinityAndBeyond? BlockEd? BlockThatChain?
Hahaha sooo many good ones :P
Chaingasm? Steem sausages?? hahahaa
In all seriousness, would you prefer BlockEd, rather than UnblockEd?? UnblockEd is kind of still our fave at the mo.
Anything with un feels like a negative
But in this case, blocked is more negative than unblocked! ;)

@redrica you soygirl, make sure to let me know the name of the account once you come up with it so I can follow it.
Haha sure thing soy boy ;) We should just name it Blockchain Soygirls and get it over and done with..
Posted using Partiko Android
What isn’t a soy girl? I am not that keen on soy milk I prefer the oat one and almond
Hahha it's a running joke from Steemfest3, @guyfwakes4-20 started a Soy Boy trend.
Nothing to do with actual soy, which I'm also not a fan of ;)
Please don't be offended by these suggestions, I know they sound sexist but they're catchy.
Crypto Barbies (maybe trademark issues)
Crypto BarBees
Crypto Bimbos
New Tech on the Block Babes
Crypto Tech University
Thanks for the suggestions! And yes as catchy as some of these are, as @ultravioletmag has said (and maybe something I should have mentioned on the post itself!! Something to learn for next time), we want to steer away from that direction and would rather have a gender neutral name :)
Haha yeah we don’t rly want to go down the female path. I have a big thing about wanting to be equal I don’t personally like the girls only events or girls in blockchain stuff I just want to be a person in blockchain altho do acknowledge there are less girls. Each to their own of course but personally I wanted to avoid female sounding names. Someone will take that crypto Barbies name tho I’m sure it’s catchy :)
I'll sleep on it for sure. Y'all have a great concept and deserve a great name. 👍

Thank you!! Hope you come up with something awesome :)
I like that term gender neutral name going to start using it
Thank you for sharing. I participated. blockchaingirl2
Thanks for the suggestion! We want to have a gender neutral name, so won't be using this! But feel free to make more suggestions :)
