[Official] Cryptsy Delisting Poll

[HabbyGab]

TIX-for scam only.

Sure, let's just delist all the coins that actually have services, active development, hashrate and no premine 

I vote for CSC (low volume and hash), JKC (same, also the coin literally has no purpose), PYC (developer went silent after making lots of promises and not fulfilling them), PXC (Nowadays pretty much established as a thought-out scam alongside phenixex), ELP (no purpose, low hash), STR (low hash, no purpose and low volume), NBL (no purpose, near non-existant volume), EZC (near non-existant volume)
I also vote on GDC being moved to LTC market. GME is pretty much the same in amount of coins produced, and it's only on the LTC market.

Here is a short list with reasons.  These are of my opinion and I am sure that I missed some coins.

Yes to these coins:

AmericanCoin (AMC) - This coin appeared during the flood of copy and paste coins a few months ago.  The developer has not been on these forums since the week or so since it was released.  This was an obvious copy and paste, pump and dump coin. The average hash rate is less than 1 MH or so.

CasinoCoin (CSC) - The developer hasn't logged into this forum since early August and the GitHub hasn't been touched in 2-3 months.  This coin appears to have no active developer or community.

ElaCoin (ELC) - This coin has seen attempted revivals numerous times only to see failure.  The minimum difficulty is hard coded at roughly .8, and with the minimal hashing power this coin sees, transactions may take days.  Development appears to have stopped. The average hash rate is less than 1 MH or so.

JunkCoin (JKC) - Its name is junk, literally.  There has been no active development in quite some time.

Nibble (NBL) - The coin appeared to have a decent start, but I haven't seen any development activity on the forums.  The hash rate is consistently, and dangerously low at around .25 MH.  

RoyalCoin (RYC) - This coin appeared during the flood of copy and paste coins a few months ago.  The developer has not been on these forums since the week or so since it was released and the website is now defunct.  This was an obvious copy and paste, pump and dump coin.  The average hash rate is around 5 MH and because of the difficulty adjustment, blocks take hours to find.  

StableCoin (SBC) - This one has an average hash rate the last day or so of around 10 MH, but the developer has disappeared and development has not been picked up by the remnants of the community, if one exists.

XenCoin (XNC) - The developer has not been on this forum in almost two months.  There is no active development.


Maybe to these coins:

ElephantCoin (ELP) - Again, relatively new to the exchange and depending on who you ask, this coin was possibly created by and for a group of people that have developed several other coins for the purpose of getting them listed on an exchange and then allowing the coin to diminish.  This coin probably needs more time to get an accurate opinion.

EZCoin (EZC) - Although the developer is somewhat active, there is not a lot going on with this coin.  This one could go either way.

Gil (GIL) - Is Hydroponica still supporting this coin or did he give up?  If he has given up, this coin should be let go.  The hash rate appears to be low.

GlobalCoin (GLC) - This coin is still somewhat new on the exchange so it falls under the maybe.  The coin was created using Shakezula's FooCoin template as evidenced by geocoind being left in the GitHub.  The coin was just updated, however, to reduce the total number of coins significantly.  This is good or bad depending who you ask.  Muddafudda (launched by SistaFista) is behind this coin, which again, is good or bad depending who you ask.

Mastercoin (MST) - See Gil.

MemeCoin (MEM) - This coin was one of the first clones to appear and has had several issues from the start.  I have no knowledge one way or the other if Muddafudda is still supporting this coin or if there is an active community.  The hashrate is low at around 5 MH.

MinCoin (MNC) - This more than likely won't be delisted because of the trade volume and price, but it was an obvious ploy for the developer, SuperTramp, to make some money.  This coin had beginning super blocks thousands of times greater than the value of 2 they are currently.


Market Switch:

GrandCoin (GDC) - The individual that launched this coin has stated that this coin was created for him/her.  One can infer that the member behind this coin has no ability to support and update the coin.  The price has remained low and seems more suitable for the LTC market if not delisted.

Why did you touch the code then?

[BitJohn]

for the most part this is all great feedback keep it coming

[tokyoghetto]

we shouldn't move coins like GDC to the LTC market. liquidity is thick and price doesn't move much. this is a good thing. Not everyone wants to trade coins with low liquidity and huge spreads.


leave GDC where it is.

[Buffer Overflow]

Anything that's obviously just a scamcoin.

Problem is if we do that Cryptsy will be a very quiet place indeed.

[iGotSpots]

Anything with a premine or inactive dev team should get the boot

[tokyoghetto]

I think we should have a separate topic for "bringing down" coins from BTC to LTC/XPM market... very low-value coins (GDC@33, QRK@135 as mentioned above, as well as STR@127, BQC@805, EMD@660, GLC@331, SBC@311)

I disagree. Some of these coins have low volatility. Some people actually enjoy trading this coins at these prices. Please consider the following:

QRK has a marketcap of $41,000 USD.  
ARG has a marketcap of $8,200 USD.

So what "low-value" are you speaking of? A low price doesn't mean low value. The only time a coin should be moved from the BTC market to the LTC market is when it trades really low, like when IFC was listed in BTC market and it traded at .00000001.

If you know how to trade these coins, you can make serious gains. in the last 24 hours BCQ has moved from a low of 722 to a high of 926. GDC can support block trades and I don't have to move the price over 500% just to buy 1 BTC worth of GDC.

I don't think it makes much sense talking about de-listing coins as it creates instability and people will just sell off every coin which looks like it might get de-listed

+100

Talk of delisting a coin has a very big destabilizing effect on the coin. Why delist any coin? Reasons given in the past are low hash rate so moving coins in and out is difficult. Okay set a hash rate level that is necessary to stay listed on the exchange.

Regarding dev activity, it is difficult to gage. Just because somebody doesn't log into this forum doesn't mean they are inactive. If a coin is running smoothly what else is needed. Some "services" are obvious scams so why even consider services as important?

We have a lot of blowhards in the cryptsy chat, maybe we should delist their coins!!! Then we won't have to listen to them. They pretend to be active devs but they really are just trying to promote their pump and dump of a copy and paste coin.

[Hippie Tech]

If that is the case, delist BTC. It was premined and instamined for the 2nd or 3rd time this past winter.

ALF - has no uses
AMC - has no active dev or mining support
GDC, GLX, GLC, STR - made purely for dumping
SBC - dev ran off after making promises
MST - just terrible in every way

1-2 month probation coins i would de list if support drops or nothing new is developed for them
BUK, CSC, KGC, PYC, NEC, ELP, CENT, NET, RED

coins with nostalgic value that should probably be removed
BQC, BTB, BTG, LKY, JKC

saying that cryptsy is still an exchange for coins that are just starting out, there are other places to be for more established coins and there's always that nice untick coin box

Isn't cryptsy the new coin market?

this list does not make sense to me at all. What are the facts making you to say "no use", "pure dumping" etc? These can be applied to all the alt coins, your favorites included.

don't suggest a list simply because you don't like them, better put the facts there so cryptsy can make a correct judgement based on facts, not based on the imaginations.

I started a thread about delisting some time ago, it is still very relevant here:

Here is your chance pick one that you don't like and list the reasons

maybe it was a little light on reasons

How about Zeuscoin? random blocks and No Premine.

this is the DE listing poll

[viboracecata]

If that is the case, delist BTC. It was premined and instamined for the 2nd or 3rd time this past winter.



 

If it happens, I will quit immediately.

[zackclark70]

Any coin that has some of these should never be on the exchange in the first place

instamine
premine that's not accounted for
inactive devs
devs releasing under anon name
coins with stupid names
coins by devs that already have multiple coins
coins with no community
blatant pump and dumps



 

[zackclark70]

today I managed to get my first cryptsy chat bans after asking bitjohn a load of questions about bribes for adding coins and about whey they don't clear up the exchange
