The btc-e trollbox speculators look like dinosaurs now from ages ago. They discuss Litecoin and why it's falling ad nauseum without realizing that there is a whole new PoS world brewing two clicks away that btc-e didn't present to them Smiley

Well said.

Yea, BTC-E is just lagging behind, they are stuck in the past, and resist change.

Odd that they don't take the 1000's of bitcoin extra daily volume they would get by adding some new coins, no?

It is very odd, maybe their just too lazy to add new coins? They feel as if they get enough $ from already? Idk, but that exchange is becoming more of a mystery to me.

Carrying all the extra coins brings a ton of extra overhead and issues Smiley I am sure that plays a ton into it.

exactly. not all new coins are clean. some have hidden premine. some could have viruses.

Only 1 used-to-be-popular coin I know of had a hidden premine, and that was Asiacoin...I've downloaded and virus scanned many new coin wallets, and I've personally only caught 1 of them that had viruses, and it ended up turning out to be a bug..

well we are talking about an exchange being cautious of adding a brand new coin. and i mention a few reason. Yes asiacoin was what i had in mind when i said hidden premine.

as far as viruses there have been many. but they fail fast.

what John was saying is that it take a lot of work to add and keep maintaining a coin. and to add every single coin is tiresome. sometimes the code are bad from noobs and the exchanges get double attacked. so there needs to be a good thorough investigation of each coin code.
coins pop x3 times a day. maybe they do not want to go through the hustle to investigate all the coins
