Is there any progress in listing BLT to any bigger exchanges?
Well so far for me Bloom as an investment has been a disappointment. I understand that they want to focus on building a great product, I also understand (somehow) that they don't care about listing it on bigger exchanges, but what frustrates me is the fact that you must pay for voting. I own BLT, set up Metamask and wanted to vote on the decisions using my Bloom ID. It seems that even if you proved you own BLT, you must pay for gas to cast your vote. What's the use of using blockchain to cast a vote, why not voting directly via a form on the site and seeing your vote instantly. Useless complication.
Unfortunately there isn't much we can do about this at the moment, save for removing the polls from the blockchain. To conduct a transaction on the blockchain, yes gas must be paid. We are looking for ways to cover the price of gas for creating BloomIDs and voting, but none of the proposed solutions we have come across so far are production ready. This is something we would like to do, though, and will roll out as soon as we are able to.
