Looks like bonus going to take some time now to get on mintpal now that they changed the voting system to 1 vote per hour and changed the price for buying votes too. Seems to me that their getting greedy.

Yeah they are getting greedy (20 BTC for a listing is ridiculous).  But technically they didn't change anything.  

They lowered the bids to 1 from 5 per hour
They raised the buy price by 5 times.  

So less votes, same net cost.  Doing this the right way by voting with our community is always going to be harder than a big IPO raise and paying for the top spot (currenlty 20 BTC costwise).

That said, I think we get a lot of value from building our votes with a community even if it takes a little longer than a "IPO."

Plus I think as we've moved up MintPal, we've been getting higher prices, more volume, etc.  So, MintPal is an endgame, but there is value in the build up too.. Smiley

Also now you need at least 5 confirmed trades to vote


Yes I've had a few people now complain they they were locked out of voting.  That was definately the worst thing they did.  Took away access for smaller and new investors and miners access to vote..

But most of them just made a few small trades, even though that is still crappy on MintPal's  part..
