Why is solarcoin not listed on poloniex?

Around 1 year ago there was a rumor that Solarcoin will be added to Poloniex and the Solarcoin Foundation added the Poloniex logo at their site. The price started to increase rapidly reaching ~ 0.25$ per coin ( 0.0004 BTC per coin). We were thinking that once Poloniex add us the price will go up arround 0.50$ to 1$ per coin... All was going well until Poloniex tweeted that they don't have plans to add Solarcoin and asked their logo to be removed from the Solarcoin.org site. It was a big misunderstanding caused by someone from the Solarcoin Foundation and since then Poloniex "bad" opinion of Solarcoin has not changed - the price went down very quickly and is still "recovering". So far we don't know what exactly was the cause of the misunderstanding and why that happened, but the one thing that we know is Poloniex don't want to add us...

That is weird. Solarcoin is such a great coin, can't understand why trading volume is so low. Thank you for the detailed answer though.

Trading volume is so low because noone knows about SLR yet. Its super undervalued. You can still be in the top 500 holders with a few 100$'s. But ssshhhhh. I still need to fill my bags  Grin

This is because no one owns slr. It will cost u thousands of bucks and huge headache to install solar batteries on the roof of ur house or wherever u want, and u need to provide a monthly energy consumption report to SLR if u wanna receive a lil portion of solars through bullshit solar proof-of-stake which is how slr is meant to be generated. Will anyone ever try to do that? Nope.

It's an added incentive for those who already have, or are planning to install solar for their homes. Or for industrial scale solar farms. There are gigawatts of solar energy already on and off the grid. That's who should claim solarcoins, and share their irradiance data on the blockchain for scientific and practical use.

That's why Solarcoin.
