Very well said. This is why Bittrex doesn't list coins for a fee. They know from the history that more than a few times malicious code has been put into coins, that coins lost userbase completely and went offline. They don't want to associate themselves with this nor expose their users, and investors, to this risk.
I am aiming to make sure that once we have new software and the new protocol ready, that they will be able to easily review it, and determine that it is a lower risk. The fact that they do list Decred is a big plus in our favour, because our codebase is based on the same basis.
So, be patient, we are making sure that we do this right and I concur 100% with marcetin in that, once we get listed on bittrex, a lot of things are going to change.
