Zanos,
You've made some well thought-out points and I also look forward to a response from Octa but I didn't take the original statement to mean that the new exchange service would stop XFC being traded on other exchanges.
"we will launch a new exchange service, especially helpful for the users outside of the cryptocurrency community, for easier access to XFCCOIN currency"
I just took this to mean that you'll be able to buy XFC with your fiat. Once you have those XFC there's no reason why you shouldn't be able to transfer them to an exchange as and when you want.
Trying to have total control over the exchange of this coin would severely limit the potential of this project and I think the developers have put too much work into this so far to all of a sudden blow its kneecaps off. Of course they could walk away right now with a few million in ICO funds but they could make life-changing amounts EACH if they continue to develop this project and let the market decide what one XFC is worth.
I hope you're right about that. I just found it a bit odd that they didn't mention that, it would have been a single sentence, "Looking into listing on x, y, and z once the new blockchain is up and the wallet is released". I mean something, anything that wasn't open to interpretation but that explicitly stated the intention. That would have been reassuring, not only to myself, but I would imagine many others.
I am sorry if anybody lives under the impression that we do not want XFCCOIN on exchanges. We
want to list our coin on
any exchange and we are
willing to pay the taxes for listing our coin on any exchange. We submitted requests for listing our coin before the beginning of the ICO to all major exchanges and not only there.
The decision to build the
new blockchain was taken in order to
facilitate the listing of XFC on exchanges besides the extra functionality it gives to the game. We decided to build it when we realized that, in spite of our efforts, we cannot list our counterparty token on exchanges.
The exchange we are building is just
a guarantee that there will always be a place where people can trade XFC and that football fans can buy XFC with fiat.
All I can say is, investors are not used to this kind of scenario, usually two or the three months which is the longest, the token or coin should or must be listed in any exchange, they don't want their investment sleeping the price is the reflection of the investors confidence in your roadmap, so expect a lot of negative comments and asking about getting listed in exchange
