 ## Summary
 ## Summary
 
 
-A simple and efficient layer-1 governance model is proposed called "Block Policy". In the opinion of the author, the introduction of Block Policy is a game-changing innovation that fundamentally changes the underlying "economic code" of PascalCoin, and any other cryptocurrency which adopts it. Whilst only a minor technical change, it solves many problems afflicting cryptocurrencies today.

-## Re-brand & License
+## Re-brand Option
 
 
-If adopted, this proposal will fundamentally change the original vision of PascalCoin. As a result, a re-brand is now warranted and fully justified. Also, since the author has [contributed significantly][1] to PascalCoin's architecture and code, the author imposes the following conditions on the adoption of this proposal:
-* Block Policy is adopted fully or not at all;
+If adopted, this proposal will fundamentally change the original vision of PascalCoin. As a result, a re-brand is now warranted and fully justified. As a result, it is recommended that:
+* Block Policy be adopted fully;
 * PascalCoin is re-branded;
 * PascalCoin is re-branded;
-* The author shall be legally considered a "co-founder".
 
 
-No part of this proposal may be disregarded in the implementation without the consent of the author. Apart from this condition, GNU Public License applies.
+Alternatively, another option is:
+* Block Policy be adopted partially;
+* PascalCoin brand is retained;
 
 
-A proposed new brand for the project is "Velocity Cash" and domain names and web-assets have been secured for this re-branding. However, the author is flexible on alternative re-brands and will work closely with the PascalCoin community to reach a re-brand consensus assuming approval of this pip.
+In the case of the former, the proposed new brand for the project is "Velocity Cash" and domain names and web-assets have been secured for this re-branding. However, the proposed re-branding is flexible and should require consensus from community.
 
 
-In the interim, PascalCoin will herein be referred to as "Velocity Cash" for the remainder of this document even though it may be subject to a different re-brand.
+In the interim, PascalCoin will herein be referred to as "Velocity Cash" for the remainder of this document even though it may be not be re-branded or subject to a different re-brand.
