You definitely don't want to be trading on MintPal until you are doing at least 25+ BTC in average daily volume elsewhere. The smart play would be de-listing it as right now there are over 500 bot votes/day - at that pace it could be listed in 3-4 weeks unless the other competition doing bot-voting starts to catch up. Is it a sabotage attempt? I mean if this cracks the top 5 I would sell whatever you have before it hits because it will be dead within 2 weeks of trading on MP. It blows my mind how little people understand economics - it's probably a wealthy 16-year-old Chinese kid that is stubborn enough to believe he knows better than everyone else (I've had a lot of run-ins with kids like this and they just kill coin after coin over and over). Stop supporting these scam voting services and stop scamming your way onto exchanges - it actually just hurts your investment.
Yes, if at all possible. There has been no response to our request yet to take MNR voting down. I'll try to track them down on this forum and contact them directly.
It is possible this is a deliberate attempt to sabotage Mjollnircoin; The vote count has rapidly increased since we started discussing this and it is obvious that MNR does not have the Volume required to sustain itself at MintPal. Your character profiling may be correct.
But as you know, Exchange platforms can list any coin they like for the Market; Like said before, MintPal should not be interested in a low volume coin as MNR is now.
When MNR does get the Volume, Exchanges will be quick to add it to the Market simply because they do not want to miss a piece of the pie.
We have been accepted to Bittrex through a GiveAway, while true we did buy votes for (the now late) CryptoAltTex we have since not payed for any exchange related service.
