Bitcoin Forum

What's with the YUUUUUGE volume in Golos trading today?

5000 BTC market cap? You gonna so big, why you didn't announce in English section? You Russians know English well, but only rasied money in Russian section? I didn't join ICO, I lost the 9X opportunity.

Hi guys! Because our ICO under license from Steemit was only for rus-community (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commonwealth_of_Independent_States).

why is there such a huge volume on that Exchange "Kuna"?
and why didn't the price move with that volumes?
are these single trades with million $ each?

Its a msitake, i have reported it to CMC

Please see my comment above

Wow that is huge and only the Russian has the opprtunity to get in with that opportunity,but you know what this could double if only they include the whole bitcoin community it couls go ten times of the currenct marketcap.

What do you mean? What is ICO under license from steemit? I never heard ICO needs what license? If it is true, I can't understand why, cuz ICO is decentralized, no need for that censored shit.

Steemit ink is a company and has license rules, so we were obliged to follow the rules

Please give a free Vote for Golos immediately go on trading sites MERCATOX
https://mercatox.com/coins/list

Thanks and voted.

Mercatox is not yet a popular exchanges,it's better to set up a bounty for voting your coin to mercatox and in my opinion it will not have a hard time to get into voting exchanges if you ask your fellow russians to participate sinc ethis is Russian targeted venture.

as per OP, this coin is for the russian community, so is there any chance that this coin be used by the other nationalities? if it's for russian then, what is the purpose of this thread in English.
based on this, the ICO is quite successful and it raised huge amount of BTC, then it would be better if this coin will be made for anyone, any nationalities. share us your good project so we can gain from this.

You misunderstood. Our platform was originally created for the rus-community (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commonwealth_of_Independent_States), but our coin - international. And if our coin has investment appeal - welcome to the exchange.

Will Golos be matching Steemit technologically moving forward? By that I mean, when the STEEM blockchain implements some change, will the Golos blockchain be matching it?

Also I see there is lots of application development going on with STEEM. For instance a forum, a website publishing platform, and a Disqus clone. Will Golos be implementing such applications for the Russian market as well?

I agree with your suggestion, I hope this project a success

All hardforks we do in line with Steemit.

We do have our own decisions. For example the coming 16.1 is going to be in change with some economic differences to Steemit

Great news, GBG is now traded on bittres

https://bittrex.com/Market/Index?MarketName=BTC-GBG

bittrex or bittrex :)
it looks cool to hear entered bittrex trading site, so let us see what is interesting about Golos in this thread

What is the price of GBG development?

Hey aren't you looking to post the thread in different languages? If so, I can do the portuguese and Spanish translation. PM me if interested!

What do you mean?

Hey, you are welcome to do a translation at your own will, if you like. As it is a local project (mostly), we are not offering bounties for translations. Thanks

i read youre thread , nothing alocation to bounty
youre ico selling without promotion, without bounty, signature campaign, facebook campaign, twitter campaign
is very dificult you can get many investor

The ICO is long finished, we have collected 600 btc, which is more than enough for us. Of course there were campgains. They were all held in Russian and long finished now.

The project is long up and running, currently between 45 - 50th place on CMC.

All bounties are avaliable on our project, mostly for coding

Thanks for the feedback

I do not see any support for the project, just information thrown in the wind.

What support do you want to see? This post is purely informational as the ann says. All the "support" was done during the ico, which finished a while ago, please read the ann again

This topic is meant to be purely informational. I dont understand your comment

I already read, so you mean that this coin is dead? No news on this project? Is it waste of time for your money in this currency then? Now you understand what I'm asking?

This coin is certainly not dead, more so, its number 5 in transaction number, and has a big community with over 20k users and a few thousand weekly active users (and growing).

This ann was created purely for information as a lot of people asked for more information in English.

We have provided the initial info, and did not plan to update the topic with daily / weekly news. (I think you need to understand the concept of our platform, whcih is - social networking)

All the news are to be found on our website golos.io and not here

BR

Dude take 3 seconds and go to the website and see a very live project.

GBG (Golos backed gold) has been added to CMC

http://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/golos-gold/

(correct cap and supply to be fixed)

I think bittrex is good exchange with big volume can be make golos to the moon

If golos is linked to gold, what it making its price change. I'm sure I am missing something. Ty

Market. The bulls and the bears.

If its redeemable in gold why is it not just tracking golds price?

Because this is a market token.

It is not redeemable. It is paper gold

what's the difference with steem? I see nothing difference except language.

We have our coins - GOLOS и GBG.

These are two similar, but different products. Look at the code base

this thread is run by dev or third party? why no update here from ?

The main topic here (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1624364.new;topicseen#new), in Russian. But, we are in touch.
GOLOS Team.

You are right! Here is an update of the Topic

 # Golos•Fund: The evolution of the Golos blockchain ecosystem
@hipster @serejandmyself @cyberfund
 
## Abstract
 
The current evaluation of the Golos development fund stands at roughly 2 million USD, and is consisting of Bitcoins and Golos tokens. Both of those funds are a property of cyber•Fund and are controlled exclusively by its board of directors. As of now, the funds are used in a non profit scheme, which makes it suboptimal for the whole ecosystem. 5% of the reserve (which makes for about 30 Bitcoins), was spent from the beginning of the crowdsale, for blockchain development, development of the web application golos.io, and marketing events in order to popularize the system. Carrying on likewise, will eradicate the fund within a period of 2 years. 
 
This document describes a more optimized scheme for governing the development funds, and transferring them to a 4-profit development scheme. The offered mechanism, will allow for a quick change to a healthier and a more competitive economy of the Golos blockchain, and its applications. It will also allow for a rise of the total capitalisation of the development fund, instead of driving it to bankruptcy. By those leaving the Golos blockchain development in the hands of fate.   
 
## Introduction
 
We have decided to divide the existing assets for development, into 3 different organisations. In which, each one of them, has a specific economical mode:
 
1. **Golos•Fund**: makes money from venture capital, by investing into applications and teams within the Graphene ecosystem. By acquiring small shares in young and talented teams on their early development stages (using the [yCombinator model](https://www.ycombinator.com/)). By using its mere expertise, the fund can guarantee to capitalize the open source code of the teams within a timeframe of between 1 - 2 years. By either helping the team to its own ICO or by finding a strategic investor for them. Golos•Fund’s target is to make a revenue of 7 fold, within the first 12 months of existence.
2. **Golos Core**: makes money on development and implementation of the Golos blockchain and its smart contracts. By consistent developing of the public core, but leaving space for private chain development too, Golos Core will make sure its own technical expertise and competency in the field of high productivity blockchain solutions, will constantly rise. As a result, Golos Core can monetize development (1) via selling of consulting for private solutions, (2) selling of standard solutions based on top of the public blockchain, and (3) tipped by the community for ready made releases (i.e. publishing).
3. **Golosio**: makes money as a typical application on top of the Golos blockchain, by delivering the best blogging service possible. Its ways of incomes include (1) part of the income of authors, (2) money received from new registrations, (3) open source releases, and (4) other monetization options (publishing, premium features and so on)
 
Each of those organisations has its own unique business model and the required resources for the compliance of the tasks set for them. This document sets options, made available as economic stimulus, for the task executors. This is made in order to maximise the results set by the tasks. It is expected, that within a 2 year period, the following things will occur:
 
The Golos ecosystem will cover the majority of the well known social applications
Transformation into a fully functional smart contract platform
Development and implementation of a more effective hybrid consensus algorithm
Rise of the (chain) capitalization to 1 billion USD
Decentralization of the peering network, to 300 well motivated nodes
Accessibility of the Golos blockchain for private installations
Rise of the total number of independent development teams, working on application, to 50
300 - 500 domains within the Golos ecosystem
 
## Golos•Fund
 
[cyber•Fund](https://cyber.fund) (Golos: @cyberfund, Bitshares: [cyberfund](http://cryptofresh.com/u/cyberfund)) creates [Golos•Fund](http://golos.fund) (Golos: @golos, Bitshares: [golos](http://cryptofresh.com/u/golos)) by releasing 100,000  [GFUND](http://cryptofresh.com/a/GFUND) tokens on the BitShares blockchain (with the future moving of the asset to the Golos blockchain). The nominal capital of Golos•Fund consists of:
 
360 Bitcoins
8,959,750 Golos tokens + GBG @golos + @goloschina +@golosio
The rights to all the repositories of the [organization on Github](https://github.com/GolosChain)
Contract rights to all existing clients
[Witnesses debt according to the initial token distribution](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1FwDp4yBbQ6Ae9Co0dWKxvq2nj2TWB1oiiMvY2E1oVck/edit))
Accounts in Steem and Golos  (@golos @golosio @golosevents @goloscore @goloschina @golosfund and all accounts that were reserved for LJ users and other bloggers
Domains golos.io, golos.fund, goloscore.org, golos.blog
20000 GFUND tokens in order to be able to pay out the above mentioned options to executors
 
The key task of Golos•Fund is venture capital investment into perspective and talented teams, that develop the Graphene ecosystem: Golos, Steem, Bitshares and Eos.
 
Golos•Fund does not put as its task to control any independent development team. Instead Golos•Fund offers the teams smart money. To be more exact:
 
Helping teams for a more efficient choice of technological stake
Helping teams to choose a more efficient economic model
Mentoring of investors, that specialize on scaling technological companies, with a direct focus on certain industries
A successful lead to an own ICO
 
The CEO of Golos•Fund is @serejandmyself  (Bitshares: [serejand-myself](http://cryptofresh.com/u/serejand-myself) and @serejandmsyelf account on golos.io
 
His key tasks are:
 
Planning and forming a report on the progress of the fund, with accordance [to this form](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1WVUdFkGoDMV-lld1Q_IWbrUFykl-BjcO7exn415OjDo/edit#gid=1584753534)
Finding objects for investment
The participation in the investment portfolio of the funded companies and control of their KPI
Coordination of future ICO for funded companies
Finding key investors in order for companies to be able to make clear exists at the right time
Development of the Golos blockchain economics and the stimulation of business activity
The growth of the ecosystem of included applications and formation of developers society
Coordination of the marketing for the Golos blockchain
 
Options are paid at the end of a 2 year period (it's possible to pay out the option on a yearly basis), per the following structure:
 
[Golos• Fund](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1WVUdFkGoDMV-lld1Q_IWbrUFykl-BjcO7exn415OjDo/edit#gid=70598753) - Options tab
[Golos Core](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1l9R7_GqjwZHPU7MLnjJfqR7qoZPmyocL0iEdSOat3Jk/edit#gid=1584753534) - Options tab
[Golosio](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1hBy8wgQrdzdWzZBNKXRb7aKuiVolVteoSl-pHr1zDPQ/edit#gid=1584753534) - Options tab
 
Based on the above, Golos•Fund can increase its investment budget, gradually, on a regular basis, opening doors for new development. For the year 2017, the target is to invest into 6 - 10 teams. Each investment will consists of between 6 to 100 thousand USD per team.
 
All investment decisions, that the fund decides upon, have to be approved by the board of directors of cyber•Fund.
 
## Requirements for teams and applications for investment by Golos•Fund
 
Abstractly speaking, Golos•Fund points out the following key targets for applications:
 
Content production
Content curation
Syndication of content
Competitive applications (application which can compete with popular social networks on the market)
Usage of smart contracts
Working on a “for profit” scheme
 
 
 
The below set of rules is not final. Golos•Fund leaves itself the right to both demand a stricter set of rules, and invest into teams that comply only with some of them. In any case, the decision to invest will be made by the CEO of Golos•Fund and the board of directors of cyber•Fund.
 
The decision for investment into a team, will be based on the following set of rules:
 
The team has to work with 100% [open source code](https://golos.io/ru--otkrytyij-kod/@hipster/iniciativa-kiber-fonda-po-podderzhke-otkrytogo-iskhodnogo-koda-v-golose), and uses Graphene technology.
Number of developers per team is between 2 and 6 people
The (company) stake target is between 5% - 49%
The team is ready for an option scheme, based upon two KPI’s (1) stake in the network, based upon inflation, (2) capitalization of the app’s tokens
The team has to be ready for a case scenario, in which it is driven to give Golos•Fund a much bigger stake (up to 90%), in case if the project isn't successful (KPI is 8 times lower than key targets) (to own 10% of what is working is better, than to own 90% of what isn’t). In case a team is ready for such scenario, Golos•Fund has the option to reanimate the project if needs to be
The team is ready to follow a basic monetization model, which is based upon a stake in the pool reward (Golos•Fund stays open for a better idea of an economical model)
The teams are independent, and can make their own decisions for their own development
Teams are ready to adapt an automated set of reports for the investors and for the community
The team leader is ready to be available for weekly online meetings with other teams
Teams are ready to use a typical form of a publicly avaliabe budget, [an example is Golosio](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1hBy8wgQrdzdWzZBNKXRb7aKuiVolVteoSl-pHr1zDPQ/edit)
 
## Golos•Core
 
Golos•Fund creates Golos Core by releasing 100,000 GCORE tokens, on the Bitshares blockchain (with their future movement to the Golos blockchain). The Golos Core budget consists of:
 
35 Bitcoins
1,000,000 Golos tokens. With it, Golos Core, is not allowed to use those tokens within a 3 year period, upon receival of the tokens (if their development fund runs out, they are allowed to use the tokens for monthly outgoing needs)
Rights for the Golos blockchain license in [Golos Core](https://goloscore.org)(bitshares account: golos-core) and the domaine goloscore.org
20% of the GCORE tokens, for [options payment of the team](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1l9R7_GqjwZHPU7MLnjJfqR7qoZPmyocL0iEdSOat3Jk/edit#gid=1584753534)
 
@serejandmyself is made CEO a.i. of the Golos Core company
 
 
 
The key tasks for the team are:
 
Core development and HF coordination
Private chain development, on the base of Golos Core
Selling of basic implementations for communities and services, based upon existing smart contracts (and more)
Development of new smart contracts
 
The Golos blockchain core team, does not have an in built monetized model. Instead they have to find their own.
 
Within the blockchain industry, there are at least 2 successful cases, where development of core teams publishes smart investments: [BlockStream](https://blockstream.com/) and [Ethcore](https://ethcore.io/). Basically, those developers are funded by investors, upon the perspective of receiving cash flow from Enterprise solutions. The recent announcemnt of [Ent Eth](https://www.ethnews.com/enterprise-ethereum-alliance-officially-launches) is a great example of how, and why, such cases can be succefull. By those, Golos Core, can easily make money from private chains, but carrying on working on developing the public infrastructure around it. That is, the success of the public infrastructure will make the demand for private infrastructure.
 
It should be mentioned, that Golos Core is not the only core development team, into which Golos•Fund can invest. If, teams arise on the market, which will offer alternative solutions, Golos•Fund only sees that as a plus for the global development of the whole ecosystem of projects.
 
Golos•Fund leaves itself the right to consult, and to make decisions in the development model of Golos Core, as its major investor.
 
[Golos Core budget](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1l9R7_GqjwZHPU7MLnjJfqR7qoZPmyocL0iEdSOat3Jk/edit#gid=1584753534)
 
## The Golos blockchain roadmap
 
The offered roadmap is based on unique development by Golos Core and does not include Steem’s blockchain development. Steem’s development will also be included into hard forks, based on logic and necessity.
 
Hardfork 2. Drop
User issued assets
Smart coins (a tradable contract based on price change) for national currencies (it is worth noting, that this feature will be implemented on the blockchain for the first time, without having in built transactional fees)
Multisignature (offering of transactions as a general proposition)
A separate reward pool for comments
Parametrization of the blockchain (economical and financial parameters, and also, those parameters, that affect the workload of the network itself)
 
Hardfork 3. Pool
Golos•Rank: Ranging of data with a the ability for promotion
Dividing witnesses into 2 roles: block validators (users with a running Golos node, that sign blocks), and delegates (users, chosen by voting, not necessary having a running node, but having the right to change network parameters per consensus)
Allowing applications on the blockchain (registration of web clients into the blockchain by transaction)
Validators have the right to sign blocks within the network by placing a collateral equal to 300,000 Golos tokens, that is held in Golos power
Delegates are chosen by Golos power holders, and can choose the inflationary parameters of the network
Dynamic size of a single round
Account recovery via friends
 
Hardfork 4. Stream
Translators: provide a decentralized access to a read-only mode into the Golos blockchain for side developers (motivated seed-nodes). A collateral of 6,000 Golos tokens held in Golos Power is required.
Payment routing. ICO + dividends
 
Hardfork 5. Lake
Smart contracts
Messaging
Abstract: Beginning of compatibility of the core contracts with an EOS-like actor model
 
Hardfork 6. River
Motivated storage of data
Abstract: Active work on compatibility of the core contracts with an EOS-like actor model
 
Hardfork 7. Sea
Abstract: End of work on compatibility of the core contracts with an EOS-like actor model
Multiple reward pools
 
## Golosio
 
Golos•Fund creates Golosio by releasing 10,000,000,000 GOLSOIO tokens on the Bitshares blockchain (with the future possibility to move them onto the Golos blockchain). Its budget consists of:
 
35 Bitcoins
100,000 Golos tokens for registration reserve
300,000 Golos tokens for a future validators node
20% of the GOLOSIO tokens for future [option payment](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1hBy8wgQrdzdWzZBNKXRb7aKuiVolVteoSl-pHr1zDPQ/edit#gid=1584753534)
The right for the Tolstoy repository, the domain golos.io and the LJ registered accounts
 
@serejandmyself is made CEO a.i. of the Golosio company
After the implementation of the second HF, powerful marketing mechanism will become available in order to launch monetization for applications. And so, it will be for Golosio.
 
The tasks of the Golosio team (and so is for other application):
 
Move onto a commercial model
Decided upon target audience of the application
Develop the project
Deliver new solutions and features, solve current bugs
 
Based upon existing information and statistics, Golos•Fund recommends to develop Golosio in the direction of Livejournal / Medium style platform, but one that includes an economical model on the blockchain. Parallel to that, create a “gateway” into the blockchain world for internet users. And an entry point for Russian speaking users into the blockchain.
 
Golosio will become an independent application, which will not have any advantages over other development teams. This will create a solid and stable background for the Golos ecosystem growth.
 
Golos•Fund leaves itself the right to consult, and to make decisions in the development model of Golosio, as its major investor.
 
[Golosio budget](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1hBy8wgQrdzdWzZBNKXRb7aKuiVolVteoSl-pHr1zDPQ/edit#gid=1584753534)
 
## Marketing
 
The overall marketing strategy of the 3 structures can be looked upon as the following: an overall growth of net assets of Golos•Fund. In turn, this will make possible to increase the “cost” of each member in the system, and obviously increase the amount of money per user within the ecosystem. An overall increase of life rate and quality - is the end target of the Golos blockchain.
 
The marketing strategy of each structure can be described and documented by each team leader according to his own style. Any change, though, will require a complete consensus from the investors.
 
The marketing structure of the teams that Golos•Fund has invested in, will be described and documented in a similar manner.
 
The next key targets should stand out:
 
Golos•Fund: maximises the existing network of already well known social applications, but on the blockchain; overall growth of value and users into the system
Golsoio: platform development, growing of WAU, growing of capital
Golos Core: competitive decisions on the blockchain market, embedding of new platforms onto the Golos blockchain
Other tams: application development, WAU growth, capital growth
 
## Conclusion
 
At the moment the Golos blockchain is the most dynamically developing chain, with a CMGR of 35% (on time of writing this paper). This document offers not only technical, but also, economical development for the Golos blockchain. Which will make sure, that the speed of CMGR growth, is set to 50% on a monthly basis (at infancy period).

Today golos on bittrex will breakout to 12k!!! It will be huge, look the chart and orders  :-* :-* :-*

Due to technical issues, the HF has been moved once again. Main reasons are difficulties with some API and plugins related to market operations with fututre user issued assets.

Is there a coin cap? Coinmarketcap.com doesn't list total supply. Looking for clarification.

Are you certain? It does right now. Or are you talking about gbg?

GBG is the one I'm referring to.

Yes... i have tried to reach out several times to CMC, its useless

Is there any chance to get more frequent updates on GBG in this thread for non-Russian speaking investors.
I've been doing ok with google translator of the Russian thread, but I would appreciate some more action in here, too.

GBG is the equivelent of SBD on Steem. But its price on the internal platform is 1 mg of Gold rather than 1 USD

I see that this is becoming a big community here, gaining a lot of interest.

What is the ratio of Steemit users to Golos users?

you hold ico for the russians only, you trade with the russians only
Not joining,good luck.

I like the concept of decentraland virtual reality world for sure their's a lot of participant will support this project even if local or international because of its innovation and unique concept.
For now, where waiting for more update regarding this project.Good luck for both team and management.
   

Guys, what is your user base at the moment?

 How many active accounts your social network has?

you can always use golosd to see that. right now there are about 70+k accounts registered out of which up to 2200 active daily. The webite has about 1.14 unique visiotrs montly, and there are about 60+k transactions done daily

Guys join Golos and we can promote us. We all can get rich just for posting some pictures or speaking about cryptocoins. What are you waiting? I have my account just for 2 days but I'm a believer. I really think that in the next years we can get much money about such coins. Why are you thinking now. The answer is simple. More and more people will go away from facebook. Now teenagers aren't on because they have too much ads on it. So why not join Golos?

from the Russian thread

Nice i will support

Does anybody know any details on this: what is the Business Molodost relation to the Golos project?

Aren't they the main Golos stakeholders for the moment?

How to see token distribution (or whatever) to deep into the stakeholders structure?

I don't understand why there is no circulating supply for GBG on coin market cap. I believe this would give much more confidence if the circulating supply was listed.

The way this project is centered around one country that I think has some similarities to China in policy-making makes me a bit unsure.

Do you think the coin can survive if Russia makes a move against crypto similar to China?

Any estimated date on the next hardfork?

What is tolstoy? The next version?

https://github.com/GolosChain/tolstoy

I think Tolstoy it's about front-end like golos.io
not about blockchain  :)

https://twitter.com/GolosClassic

For Bittrex:
The community of Golos media blockchain is protesting against the mismanagement and straightforward damage to the project caused by CyberFund (top management team of Golos). We consider CyberFund’s actions illegal, and these are the reasons why.

Back in 2016, CyberFund arranged an ICO to make a fork of Steem. And since then there have been a lot of questionable actions, and a long history of ignoring the investors rights, and going against investors wishes, and diluting investors share, a lot of that context and evidence is saved in Golos blockchain. They used ICO funds to hire and train programmers during their tenure as part of GolosCore or Golosio teams, with a lot promised but never delivered.

Last year CyberFund made the decision to move to EOSIO codebase, and launch a new blockchain called CyberWay. This is being done without any consent from the community. There was no opinion poll regarding the move, which totally contradicts the DPoS principles. What we are witnessing right now is wasteful spending of ICO money or, rather to say what can be considered, open embezzlement.

A large part of Golos community is firmly against abandoning the curent chain during the move to EOSIO codebase, but CyberFund plans compulsory halting of the existing chain. Of all the community, CyberFund is the only entity with the access to ICO funds. GolosCore is a structural part of CyberFund, with their since their salaries are paid with ICO money, which contradicts the promises made to the community during the ICO. However, we would like to emphasize it once again: Golos community never made the decision to use this money for moving to EOSIO codebase. Another thing is that during the move CyberFund plans to default on GBG tokens, as well as severely dilute the existing share of Golos stakeholders.

Therefore, the community of Golos itself, using its own financial and labour resources, decided to maintain the original chain of Golos, as it is the project that the investors trusted their money to. The code is ready to be used right now. The fork is planned to be launched simultaneously with the compulsory transfer to EOSIO codebase to retain the original chain.

The community took the decision to eliminate CyberFund and all the accounts affiliated with it from the new fork of the original Golos chain, in order to allow no more misuse of the original stake that CyberFund granted itself for launching the chain, before it began actively misusing ICO money. The new fork is aimed at supporting the further development of the original Golos, according to its original aims and purposes.

Moreover, the community is against CyberFund's plan to forcefully swap Golos and GBG tokens for CyberWay tokens, while diluting the original shareholders and defaulting on the GBG debt. We would like to keep both listed just as they are. In preparation for the swap, CyberFund created a wallet emulator in attempt pass new CyberWay tokens as Golos ones - which completely contradicts the wishes and the intentions of the community.

Please find attached the code that the we are planning to use to maintain the original Golos chain. We would like to ask for your support, hoping you consider our actions as rightful and legal, unlike CyberFund’s arbitrariness. The community has been more than happy to be using Bittrex as the main trading platform, and would love to keep the mutually beneficial cooperation the way it exists.
