I saw the post about the cosmetic criticism of biblepay. I don't have a problem with the way any part of biblepay looks and I don't think that is holding back adoption at all. I do have an observation, however (not a criticism as I don't know how to fix it). I think if the block times were more consistent, we would have more traction getting on bigger exchanges like bittrex. I don't know for sure, but they do evaluate the consistency of block times:

"Coins which do not adhere to their target block times."

FOLLOW
We look for coins that have high community demand, innovations to crypto-currency technology, or a contribution to science and humanity. We believe in aggressively taking chances on coins and letting the free market sort out which coins should thrive.

Bittrex reserves the right to keep or remove any market from its exchange.

Markets which are more eligible for removal include but are not limited to:

Markets with less than 0.5 BTC (or equivalent) of average daily volume over a 7 day period and have been on Bittrex for 4 weeks or more.
Markets that consistency dip below the minimum volume requirement.
Markets with 0 daily volume.
Markets with low liquidity. Less that 15 BTC on the Buy side of the order book for Bitcoin markets.
Coins with no developer support or public developments.
Coins without working blockchains.
Coins which do not adhere to their target block times.
Coins with weak blockchain security. e.g. Low hash rates which can be exploited.
Coins which violate our policies.
Coins which have compliance issues.
If a market is removed, you will have 14 days to remove your coins from our wallets.

Weve got the fix for that in testnet now, and I believe this will be released end of 1st quarter (thats March 31, 2018).

I don't think we have anything to worry about with Bittrex as they will probably wait until we have working distributed computing before listing us anyway.

I have tons of infrastructure I can throw at the problem. Not only that, but I don't mind devoting some CPU cycles to testing since I've been a systems reliability engineer most of my life, I understand the value of good testing.

Some background on me:

Being in tech for 20 years, I have mainly been self-employed running a business as a service provider. I started hosting websites on linux-based platform since 1998 and eventually owned & operated a Windows-based content management system as well providing hosting on those two platforms (and more!). These skills as a sysadmin should come in handy somewhere on the BiblePay project!! Please let me know where I can be of help.
