Mintpal?
Talking about exchanges, i think its better to get an exclusive exchange for this coin. If there are many exchanges for this coin, traders will be spread out in different exchanges. When we get into a better exchange, we should move on from the lesser quality exchange.
Not necessarily, we should start from the lowest, coinedup should be OK. When there is a demand for this coin, there will be a volume which will create a profitability for the exchanges. When the exchanges see that PAWNCOIN is profitable, they will be the one that will beg us to promote their exchange instead of us begging all the exchanges to add our coin. This is only if the PAWNcoin community truly believes in the potential of this coin. And for example the mintpal wants to add us, then we should remove the coinedup in the OP and list ONLY Mintpal. In addition, tell all the traders of pawncoin to trade only in mintpal.
This is only my suggestion and opinion, because it always pay to think outside the box. All other coins are begging to be in exchanges but in the end even if they are added, there is only 1 or 2 btc of trade a day and it is such a turn off.
Could not agree more, getting listed should be the least of pawncoins concern.
