Its just filled with a bunch of dead coins aside from 9 or so coins that trade.

But ok I'll add 'its the fault of the exchange' to the list of reasons why KDC is loosing relevance.

So far I have:
1. Block reward is too high
2. Miners are flooding the market with cheap coin
3. The fork mess created some confusion
4. The pump and dump of other coins
5. KDC is not on the right/enough exchanges

I think I'm missing one or two... feel free to add to the list.
