Why do you need to call it anything other than bitcoin?
When a cashier at the Piggly-Wiggly hands me dollars, I don't say, these are Piggly-Wiggly dollars or KYC-free dollars.
When I withdraw dollars from my bank account, I don't say, these are KYC dollars.
On the other hand, IF I were a criminal, I might keep two piles of cash and make a mental note of the ones the bank/government knows about.
But THIS is the narrative of those who would like to criminalize Bitcoin.
When a cashier at the Piggly-Wiggly hands me dollars, I don't say, these are Piggly-Wiggly dollars or KYC-free dollars.
That's because you have cash. Cash that is not easily tracked. I can't (easily) find out that you had shopped at Piggly Wiggly nor where you spent those dollars after leaving Piggly Wiggle.
Bitcoin is not the same as cash.
