Look they've already cut off free API access. Here's some other ideas from the Muskrat playbook:
Maybe change the name to P.com
Change the logo to ₱ (surely the Mexicans won't mind that you're using the Peso symbol).
Hmm, why not also charge money to get a blue checkmark by your Reddit username to be a verified Redditor? or maybe call them P-ers?
Oh, how about charging new users $1 to use your platform?
The peso symbol is $, and it was it before it ever was the dollar symbol.
Maybe it's somebody else's peso?

Apparently Philippines, introduced when they were an American colony and USA thought that the $ sign was to be only theirs and Spain's.
