Pls don't compare minereum with bitcoin.
That being said: reading the last two pages is sad; a crazy mix of fud and raving when dev posts here to the obligatory New Exchange When.
I was making an analogy for why it's okay to be a clone coin at the start (all coins usually at least clone ideas from Bitcoin, cloning is okay as long as you build on top of that). Not saying Elix is better than Bitcoin or Minereum is the same as Bitcoin, just an analogy

Repeating this probably for the 12th time now.
CoinExchange will cost 2 BTC to get added on are they thinking it through whilst also contacting other exchanges. LiveCoin has been thrown away from the community but is bit more expensive at 4 BTC. News coming soon on that front coming soon according to dev.
