Market-pegged assets get the "bit" prefix, user-issued assets do not

How can you tell if the asset is market pegged?

Do not use this post as information for making any important decisions. The only agreements I ever make are informal and non-binding. Take the same precautions as when dealing with a compromised account, scammer, sockpuppet, etc.

The "bit" is just added to the GUI to clarify that its not real dollars I guess, but on the blockchain we only have USD, EUR, CNY etc.

When trying blockchain_list_assets in the console, I get asset names such as USD, CAD, LOVE etc. When looking in the desktop client, in the markets tab, I see BitUSD, BitCAD but not BitLOVE.

Which is the proper name and how is it derived?

Cheers, Paul.
