What I would like to see from a leading exchange like yours is to implement some proof of dev.

- How hard would it be to get the leading dev of interesting coins to chat with one of you in a video call explaining what his coin is, what he intends to do and what not.  

I am sure some of them will still be scam, as a competent person can fool you into accepting his coin but after he fooled the community once, this guy will be barred from your exchange forever with his photo published and what not.,. For their next scam they will need an other competent dev to give the speech and answer your technical guy. A method like this is a bit intrusive but for the sake of crypto, I believe this is almost mandatory at this point.

Bittrex is hurting more than helping the community at this point with all the scams. This is unbelievable how much money has been stolen past few weeks with all this stuff. What might happen at this point is people are going to avoid your site and go back to mintpal and invest in established new coins.

I personally was trading quite a bit 3 weeks ago and barely bought any coins on your exchange since then, and intend to do so until this situation is resolved.

Investing in the dev > investing in a coin right now.
