My development team is trying to be open with the community. As a trusted member, what do you suggest or recommend we do. We are a legitimate team, and as such we are willing to go the extra mile.
Go with pod + coins source trust rating
Forget c-cex, use poloniex. Their newer ICD rules state that the devs do not get the funds upfront. They only get funds as they need them, for stated coin dev purposes, with a strict ledger. They also require a valid form of ID.
And consider changing the name of the coin.
