Re: [ANN] Potential Markets de-listed from Bittrex
by

Why bother listing a coin only to turn around and delist the coin weeks later? You can't honestly tell me that it takes huge amounts of processing power or server space to keep a wallet up for coins.

Some coins are small but may have a vibrant or active community that is slowly growing as word of the coin spreads, but by putting this "delist threat" on the coin, I believe you completely deflate/defeat any chance of that coin's support growing. What new investor is going to want to buy in to a coin that has that warning on it, even if the coin is legitimate, with a dedicated core community and an active dev... Why would they? So from the start if they aren't meeting your volume expectations (meaning making you as much profit as possible), they are doomed. Who cares if the coin has potential or could continue to grow. They aren't making you immediate profit so you drop them. It's like Bittrex is fully promoting the PND coins, leeching as much profit as possible, while most traders get burnt, then dumping the coin entirely from the exchange.

It is beyond frustrating, and it seriously makes me wonder if Bittrex has been involved from the beginning with the ever growing number of scam/PND coins that disappear as quickly as they appear on the exchange.

And now you put a 50k satoshi minimum to buy or sell a coin?!? How are smaller coins ever expected to grow? I looked at my portfolio today, and this completely makes it impossible to buy/sell over half the coins in my wallet. Coins that I was easily trading a few days earlier, are now just stuck in limbo. I can't sell out what I have bought, and I can't buy more unless I meet your excessively high minimum order requirements (and I can't increase my coin amount by trading in the gap between buys/sells, which is really damned lame).

Bittrex seems to be making it harder and harder to want to do business with them, why should I bother? Because you add a new coin within days of it launching? Why would I buy it knowing as soon as it isn't making you money you will drop the coin. It's also now pointless, as unless I invest your specified amount, I can't get in to that coin. When I have extra 20k satoshi, I can't buy 100 of some random coin (that I might not buy otherwise) selling at 0.000002. Why not? Because it's not making Bittrex a profit.

I know this is a business and all, but come the hell on, all of those small transaction fees have to add up. Quit promoting PND shitcoins that magically disappear once they are no longer profitable to your exchange, or have fleeced half your users from their coin. Quit adding things like minimum buy and sell amounts that prevent your users from being able to freely trade coins in their wallet.

And most of all quit acting like this is about the user's experience, when we all know this all has to do with one thing. Bittrex increasing Bittrex's profits.

I would use it to get caught up with my bills, pay some rent and not have to stress daily about how in the hell to feed my kid, dog, cat and occasionally myself.

It all started in July 2013, Life was good, I was recently engaged, Had purchased a new car, and was halfway through the hours of a retainer contract with my largest client. Things were looking great. Then, I had the most insane pain I have ever felt. I thought it was just really bad heartburn since I had ate smoked brisket from a local BBQ joint, and it always screwed my stomach up. For over 48 hours I rolled around in agony, but due to lack of health insurance didn't go to the doctor, after a few days the pain went away, I could move again, so I figured hell what ever it was I am fine now, who needs to spend money on a doctor.

In Dec 2013, I landed 3 new clients that were going to triple my income, the largest being a retainer client for double the contract size as my previously mentioned retainer client. Not to mention that the previous client had already worked me over 400 hours above my 1200 hour per year contract, basically consuming all of my extra time, and preventing me from really being able to do other work. In reality I had worked with this group for 4 years, and had worked myself out of a contract. They needed a larger team and more hours than was possible for my small business, but didn't want to pay enough to help me hire someone, In 2012 the client had even won a "Champion of Change" award from the POTUS. From that point on they went from 10 programs and under 40 employees, to 21 programs, with more in the works, and over 100 employees, they had outgrown me and with my new clients coming on I didn't contest the contract not being renewed at the end of Dec. 2013... After all I had bigger clients coming on the first of the year.

January 2014 started, I began working with the new clients, two of the jobs were time sensitive and to be completed by Feb. The third and largest client, or what was supposed to be my largest client, after a few weeks of working with them, flaked out, and then it was discovered by me, that the money promised for this new contract was contingent upon the business receiving a business loan (after I had been assured the money had already been budgeted), more so, the business "owner", hadn't actually left his former employer, nor brought over employees with him, he had been terminated from his former employer, I however, having also been lifelong friends with the guy, didn't do my normal research in to new clients, and being or seeming to always be on the up and up, took him at his word.

Just as this all came out, and the realization that my main revenue stream for 2014 was basically in the toilet, the weird pains started happening again. At first again I thought heart burn, then possibly heart attack, but being under 40 I brushed that off figuring it was once again the evils of smokes meats.

Within 24 hours the pain had not subsided, it was getting worse, and now included a fever, vomit, and the pain moving from my chest to my right side. The side where you appendix is. I knew as I refused a wheel chair at the ER what it was, I even lasted another hour before actually getting in to the ER and being seen by the attending physician. Then things got really real. The doctors tune changed from one of believing it was serious indigestion and I was being overly dramatic, to one of me needing to be operated on immediately...

That pain in July 2013. It was my appendix initially rupturing. Then somehow, I am honestly not sure how, It didn't burst. Instead from that point until my going into surgery on the 19th of January, was/had been leaking toxic fluid in to my body, when they went to remove the appendix they discovered that the first two inches of it were gangrenous (as in necrotic dead tissue), that I had pockets of this fluid through out my body, and as they attempted to remove what was left of it, the appendix disintegrated, sending my system in to shock, stopping my heart, and forcing them to revive me while also trying to clean out the mass amounts of toxic fluid in my body.

After a week in the hospital on high grade pain meds and antibiotics, I was released to my fiancee. 2 days later she ended our engagement (but only after stealing my prescription on her way out the door). For the next 3 months I recovered from the surgery, and was continuously on some kind of antibiotic as they attempted to remove the pockets of infection. By the time I was able to function in April, I had lost the two clients I had Feb. deadlines for, and have since, had very few small jobs. Nothing that really covers the bills.

Flash forward to now. I still have pockets of infection within my body, the antibiotics have seemed to slow down in their ability to fight the infection. Other than the few small jobs I mentioned, I haven't had much work at all. I have applied to anything and everything in my area, willing to throw away a 16 year career as a web designer/developer to work at a gas station even, only to be told by most places paying minimum wage that I am over qualified and wouldn't be in their best interest to hire, because as soon as I found a web job, I would leave (and they are probably right considering I can make 4-5 times more in my field).

So with your donation, I would pay some of my bills, I would use some of it to pay for the meds I need but can't afford, and to see the doctors that I should have seen months ago but can't afford. I would pay some rent to prevent eviction, and on my car to prevent reposession, and I would buy my child the xbox one I have been promising him since his birthday that I had hoped by now I would have found employment to have already purchased...

Anyways that's my sob story for the past 8 months. 100 btc would certainly save the day. Or at least take the stress off of an overly stressed, unemployed, non-healing single parent.

I'm confused... I thought Templar77 just did the Graphic Design work for this coin? Now it is revealed that he was dev as well? So I guess he was Cinni dev and that explains why they both look the same and both are taking a shit on those that bought it or wasted time mining?

Cinni is another scam. All it needs is IE and his filthy devotees and we have our weekly drama.

Definitely chocked full of drama. Entertaining to watch, not so good when you have coins/money involved.

http://pool.kryptochaos.com/ is on the correct block, other pools are down or out of date.  If you want to mine coin that is on the main fork, of the pools we know, this is the only one.

So I have been wasting my rented hashrate on ipoMiner? FFS. Thanks. I'll be sure to not mine any more of this coin.

Nobody has mentioned this...

If you tried to mine Shibe in the past 10+ hours, of course you aren't going to get any coins...

Read the Shibe thread, it clearly says when the PoW ended. Shibe is in PoS only stage now and has been for at least 12 hours.

Can't withdraw

NO PAYOUT , EVEN IT'S MISSING DEBIT OPTION

My post is deleted , big ass

----




Just because a pool isn't paying out, it doesn't mean the coin is a scam. I for instance can make a Litecoin pool and run away with the payouts, does this make Litecoin a scam? No it doesn't. It's nobody's but your own fault for mining on this pool despite having all the warnings.

Oh and remove your IP from the image. Cheesy

What he said...

I just stumbled upon the coin, after making the conf file, wallet synched fine, and I started mining on hashfaster. Haven't had a single problem.

Getting scammed by a pool isn't the dev's doing. Deleting your FUD on his thread is kind of nice tbqfh, as I have seen your 17 billion posts on coins you decide are a scam, and you have 5 different threads pertaining to this coin, with zero evidence to substantiate your claims, other than the opinion of someone on another coin thread.

I'm sorry that pool scammed you, inciting this hellacious case of the butthurts, but why not wait and if concrete evidence comes up to support your claims, then post, instead of the shite fest you have going on here.

Re: [ANN]ComCoin[CC] - SHA256 PoW/PoS - ZERO PREMINE/IPO

So how are you guys going to keep this Community Coin from getting confused with the other Community Coin?

https://www.mintpal.com/market/COMM/BTC
 Huh Shocked Huh

our coin is called ComCoin. this is the name. no shortform or something. just "COMCOIN". the shortcode is: "CC". so this should be clear.

and COMCOIN can stand for many things. not only community, but also communication. for example the era we are living in is a post.dot."com" era. there are many thoughts/ideas we are associating with this name.

and you can trust us. once this coin is launched there will be no confusings. CC will be very clear to differenciate from other projects.

thank you for the question.


Not only is it just too confusing considering there is a Comm Coin. But the "CC" at exchanges that I use is for "Colbert Coin". Which is also sha256.

I mean come on guys. From this PR/Marketing professional's opinion, you should have done your homework. Even if you had your heart set on the name, you are just making it doubling confusing. Com or Comm Coin? Err the one 'm' or 2 'm' com(m) coin. Oh I'll take some CC. wait is that Colbert Coin or Com(m) Coin.

I'm sorry but if another coin already exists and has existed, and has a community, perhaps a little effort to come up with another name? Then again we are talking about Cloned Cryptocurrency #39290 so I guess it is what it is.

Good Luck.

Stop mining thecryptopool。Is a liar。Currency can not be extracted[/color]

Neither can I get anything out of x24 or hashfast. No one is paying the coins. This is a clusterfuck of epic proportions.

Run people. Run fast and don't look back.

Hashfaster is paying and has been all day.
