Re: CoinMarketCap.com - Market Cap Rankings of All Cryptocurrencies!
Hi Gliss
I'd like to ask for HitBTC to be removed from CoinMarketCap. They are known for faking volume and are quite probably scamming in other ways. Some references:

I think that for something as sensitive as market cap it's important not to use exchanges that can artificially shift the market cape and trade volume.

Thanks for the links, removed it from the listing for now.
You have to edit your form, because -believe it or not- they changed their name

Gliss, your removal of HitBTC lasted like a week before you added them back. You have a mountain of evidence that nobody in this thread has contradicted. How much are they paying you to keep them there?
No wonder your site is getting slammed on Reddit: http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/33fubn/ripple_freezes_1m_in_user_funds_time_to_remove_it/
Time to move to CoinGecko, at least they don't actively support scammers.
We reached out to them and they said they had resolved most of those issues. If you find any more recent evidence of scamming, please let me know.
