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.
wow. pretty impressive. at the moment i am a big supporter of mintpal but this would make me switch over to you guys.
Is the market big enough for a bc/alt exchange?Blackcoin has been trading in the top 10 markets if not the top 5 and even top 3 consistently over the last 4 weeks. That's a huge market, even with a relatively small market cap. Early adapters and early exchanges of Blackcoin would be well positioned to grab a peice of that pie.
I think it could be really big if blackcoin is grown the right way. This could be a big step in the right direction.
To be honest I am not sure if the Mintpal monopoly on Blackcoin can be broken. They don't do anything wrong, have a good layout and have very good uptime. There has to be a good reason to buy/sell blackcoin on another site. Even cryptsy with its huge volume can't take much volume away regarding blackcoin from mintpal.
