Since Bittrex doesen't accept new registrations, is it better to leave the coins on cryptopia or put the on a desktop wallet?

Thank you!

Hey everyone, sorry for my absense it has proven to be a very busy Holiday Season and New Year and I'm busy getting things organized for the upcoming blockchain upgrade.
so to try and answer some of your questions in no particular order.
I'm discussing with the Cryptopia devs to try and get their confirmation.  They have been very helpful so far and I'm hopeful they will also be assisting with the swap.  Any people who have balances on Cryptopia currently I'd keep them there for now.
Bittrex has confirmed their support of the upcoming blockchain upgrade, scheduled for January 25th 2018.  The details are described in the following post: https://support.bittrex.com/hc/en-us/articles/115003177652-Support-for-the-GeoCoin-GEO-blockchain-upgrade
Some people have asked about collecting GEO from the map.  Currently we are under development, so you will need to wait until after the blockchain upgrade has occurred.
We need to do a lot of work, replacing the wallet backend is priority to handle the new GEO ERC20 tokens.  Once that is fully setup, we will push for launching the new MapBox interface.
In terms of the GEO blockchain upgrade, we are doing a 1:1 exchange of GEO:GEO.  Often people ask me if they will be getting UBQ instead of GEO, which is not the case.  All the GEO balances will be taken and migrated to the Ubiq Network as GEO tokens.
thank you all for your interest and support of the GeoCoin project, these are truly exciting times :smiley:
