You know how people ask you to put coins on the exchange?  Well, I'm going to do the opposite.

Please do NOT add Gascoin, Spots, Cryptobits, and Cloudcoin.

Gascoin is ecologically irresponsible, as the orphan rate because of four second block times will be absurd.  The electricity wasted and thus its contribution to all-things-global-warming will be substantial.  It's an argument Cryptsy cannot win if they tried to justify accepting Gascoin.  FST, WDC, and DGC already push the limit...

Because the dev of Spots is the same as Gascoin, and since Spots has a sizeable premine/dev tax, I refuse to support Spots by default.  Bad reputation should stand for something and we should draw the line by not accepting these criminal losers as part of the cryptocoin community.

Cryptobit was announced in a truly shady manner.  They were announced on a dead forum then, by mere chance or collaboration, someone not part of the dev team decided to post a announcement thread in this forum.  And when the point is brought up about their strategic use of a dead forum to instamine/premine their own coin, the devs of CYB feign ignorance.  This type of shady behavior should be punished.

Another coin I won't support is Cloudcoin.  Date was scheduled and devs decided to secretly launch much earlier, essentially creating an instamine situation for themselves.  A quick look at cryptometer.org shows well over 90% of all coins currently in existence was mined in the first two hours. Moreover, the dev of Cloudcoin (ahmed_bodi) has some morally questionable beliefs:  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=255361.msg2725066#msg2725066

I commend Cryptsy for having the guts to adopt altcoins, and I'm happy for their growth.  But there needs to be a line drawn so that criminals and bad practices are punished instead of being rewarded.

-Merc

I think there is merit in what you say. We have started to consider premines way more heavily into the coin research we do. Essentially fair release coins will move up the list way faster than the others. I wouldn't go so far as to say its criminal but bounties are not a real factor in the coin consideration criteria. If folks want to do a bounty I think they should be in another currency since it shows the community that they have at least put a little money where there mouth is and may stick around a while. Since the alt boom there are way more fair release alts floating out there now. Can I say none will make it no I can't but most of the ones you listed are not ranked very high on the list and will tend towards the bottom as more fair release coins are out there.

Good, I'm glad.  Thanks for replying.

And yes, calling their actions 'criminal' was more to emphasize my opinion regarding the matter.

[Cryptobits]

Where have you asked about the launch. Haven't seen it in a post or pm. More than happy to answer any questions regarding cryptobits .Is this the only forum where cryptos are to be announced??

[daserpent1]
