not being listed on any of the major exchanges is a big mistake. @Eliphaz why do you think that it is a good idea to go down this path?
I can't recall stating we decline from listing on major exchanges. We just don't put resources on all the required a**licking as we really have some real business to do instead, such as preparing the decentralized BTC/HEAT exchange that runs from within the HEAT wallet.Quote
With only 3BTC needed to list on Bittrex
Not true, as I've described earlier. Prior to HEAT ICO I've talked to Bittrex personally about listing HEAT, filled all their required questionnaires and specifically asked if anything else in addition to that and paying the 3 BTC fee is needed. Got a canned reply, responded to that, and never received another reply. It'll be a while before I'll "do business" with them again, as I don't have time for that kind of games. If somebody wants to get HEAT listed on Bittrex ASAP, feel free to arrange it. The company will gladly pay you 3.3 BTC when HEAT is listed.To clarify, according to the canned reply Bittrex's "policy is to not comment on whether we will launch coins but we only add coins under active development with high community demand. We gauge demand based off of tweets, hash power, length of bitcointalk thread, volume on other exchanges, etc. Follow us on twitter @bittrexexchange and tweet about how much you like this coin and Bittrex."
Quite vague if you ask me... so not having time for that doesn't mean I put myself above others, but the fact that when we don't even know what's required doesn't warrant pursuing that channel when I really do have a long queue of business to do. Sure HEAT could be tweeting every day: "Hey, BTW we love Bittrex! We also love HEAT, because we developed it!" but I don't think that'd very useful nor would it likely fulfill their unknown criteria. If you wanna show them enough love it would likely be great. And if HEAT is listed provably through your individual activity mainly, we'll pay you the 0.3 BTC extra
Hi Eliphaz, although I can agree upon the fact that it is quite a hassle to get listed on both Bittrex and Polo. I do think that the benefits are more than worth it because:
- it adds a lot of liquidity to the coin which, as you stated yourself on the heatledger forum, is critical to the survival.
- it adds a lot of promotion for the coin as well. I think a lot of people do not know of this project and getting listed will help in spreading the word. It's one of the cheapest way of getting a lot of publicity.
As an investor I already contacted Poloniex to add the coin and I would suggest other investors to do the same (https://poloniex.com/coinRequest). However, coins will not get listed unless Poloniex and Bittrex are in contact with the developers. So I would like to ask you to reconsider your position on listing of exchanges because of above mentioned reasons.
Heat Team,
Life is full of situations were we have to do things we'd rather not, be nice to people we'd rather not, and play "a game" to get things that we need. Whether that be feigning interest in an annual review, or complimenting your annoying boss, or appealing to an elusive crypto exchange. The fact is you owe it to the investors to make this currency the most useful and valuable it can be. That means being listed on at least one the few top ranking exchanges - like Bittrex.
I don't appreciate the flippancy in your remarks. It is your job to contact the Exchanges, tick their boxes, and get your coin listed. Shrugging your shoulders and sulking does not get us anywhere. Given the delays in getting this project out of the door, the team should be giving 100% to sell this project and prove it's worthy of listing.
Make no mistake - Heat on Bittrex is worth more than Heat on C-Cex.
Knock on doors and make this happen!
