Hey all. Admin from AllCrypt here. We added BC earlier today due to an outcry of support in the Trollbox.
They also said something interesting.
That for reasons I'm not sure of... people are chomping at the bit to get BC be added as a trading PAIR on exchanges. POT/BC and SLR/BC etc...
Most (all?) coins aren't worth that work. No one asks for trading pairs for these other altcoins.
Why's BC different? Is that something that would be wanted? Is it something that would be supported and used?
AllCrypt was built to be entirely modular. Adding BC as a trading pair would take literally one line of code. (We thought ahead)
But I also don't want to open Pandoras box of all the other coins asking for it, then suddenly there are literally 12,321 markets on AllCrypt as every coin is a possible pair, thus making the site worthless.
But we're also absolutely all about innovation. WE pioneered coin voting. WE are pioneering user configurable cold storage wallets (Hoping to launch that tomorrow or monday).
We'd love to pioneer another amazing change to the crypto Exchange landscape.
But it has to be for the right reason and I have to be convinced it'd work.
Lay it on me.
Well, having witnessed crypto for years now, and as a firm believer in crypto (and BC) I believe the most dominant reason is to decouple major alts from Bitcoin. The BC community knows that its onto something special here. The faster Blackcoin can develop its own core value ouside of the Shadow of Bitcoin the better. Blackcoin has already proven to be one of the only (only?) alts that has found a way to increase in value consistently through this last BTC price slump. The 'decoupling' is already starting to happen. But without BC alt trading pairs and BC to USD coins like this are being held back.
As a way to protect yourself and your time establish some type of process. Just asking for BTC is kind of tacky. Or you can just make it a arbitrary 'market decision'.
All crypto wealth being forced to flow through BTC in all directions is outdated. Blaze the new trail!
