For the time being, Solar Coin is safe.  We reserve 20-30 markets for long term projects and hope that Solar Coin will succeed given more time to grow.

Please delist all IPO/ICO coins without innovation you have listed in the past two weeks.
(icebergcoin, architectcoin and others I don't even know the name.
Those coin have absolutely no innovation except IPO of the order of several hundreds BTC, I understand you are making a profit from but at the end of the day, you are loosing in credibility and trust...

There's a pretty big point people miss when they criticize us adding so many coins to Bittrex.  I don't know of any system to determine if a coin will succeed or fail before we put it on the exchange.  If I did, I'd day trade instead of work on our exchange.

The first 2 parts of the statement are about community demand and innovation.  When we see a lot of requests for a coin in my bct inbox, twitter, and support alias that is usually a signal that people want to trade it.  Who am I to judge what people want to trade?  

We also try to take chances on new business models and algorithms.  We had coins like URO, CLOAK, RZR, NAUT, etc. etc. long before any other exchange did.  We didn't know if they would be successful, but they were interesting enough to get added and let the market decide.  And for every one of those interesting coins that succeed, there are a number of coins that don't.  

The last bit about contributions to humanity is an extremely tricky one.  Almost every "donation" based coin we've been asked to add has turned out to be a scam.  We prefer coins that directly use hash power towards scientific efforts like CURE coin.  And before you suggest GridCoin, yes we are looking at it.  And No, it isn't being added until we get more clarification from the dev team.

Right now, we're looking for 0.1 BTC of daily volume averaged across a 7 day period.  That doesn't cover the cost of each market, but it is enough to show us there is interest in the coin.  We also throw bad blockchains or coins abandoned by devs into the list of coins we remove.

Every coin we add gets 2 weeks on the exchange regardless of volume.  Anyone who pays for a sponsor ad gets a guaranteed 30 days on the exchange regardless of volume. 

I appreciate your feedback.  I think you can go back through the long history of this thread and our actual cut list to see that our policy creates a candidate list of coins to remove and we take in community comments and concerns before actually removing a coin.  You'd be surprised at how few coins we actually remove that meet the criteria we set out.  No deletion is ever automatic but we've found that the 0.1 BTC volume is a good starting guide.

can we have any infos on the XHC Wallets please?

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.

I find it interesting the past month scams have been increasing dramatically at an ever increasing rate. A new coin came out with a plan a well known dev and it blew up. What did people do? They dumped and bought conceal and incognito and shit and got ripped. You know what? I stopped buying that garbage I might but HODLing the majority $VIA but I know the dev isn't going anywhere. I am also not crying to bittrex because I got scammed. STOP BUYING THAT GARBAGE AND IT WILL DISAPPEAR. They are taking a free market approach its what got them where they are. Bittrex loves listening to their users and I am sure they will come of with something maybe to make you feel better about it, but in the end its always up to you. No more 24 hour POW garbage STOP BUYING IT NOW.

Why can't we the investor demand this from the dev on their announcement page before we invest in their coin??? Maybe on their website? Why does bittrex have to take the time out of their day, and put more responsiblility on their shoulders for "proof of dev" because when those devs start ripping people off it brings a whole new level of responsibility. I am personally done spending money on scamcoins. Even if i get proof of dev that doesn't mean I will trust that dev or the coin. Personal responsibility people please. I will not blame anyone else for the scams I walked in to.
