Yeah, i liked the old layout, and the mintleaf logo etc. why didn't they keep it as it was?
Also, I thought the reason for the buyout was because everyone lost faith after those coins were stolen. Are people really gonna trust these clowns more than the old owners? they seem clueless to me.
It's gonna be a long time before I even think about using it which is a shame because it was my favorite exchange before.
Yup. I couldn't have said it better. They took over from a bad situation and have pretty much run the remaining reputation of Mintpal straight into the ground LOL. Their only hope is the zero trading fees enticing people to use it.

I'm sorry guys. I was naive (evian backwards ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) ) and I saw dollar signs. I thought I could sell and then buy back more with the extra BTC. Don't fall victim like I did. If I may ask, how old are you and if you are above 18(don't say your age), what country do you live in? That 1500 XC is all of your savings. Im in my mid 30's. I used to make a lot of money - but with an injury and a drastic employment change a few years ago, i ate away my savings - All of it. Jobs were with temp agencies. So i would work for 3 to 4 months then be without a jobs for 3 to 6 months. I now have a steady job (just about 2 years at it). I've been putting every extra dollar I had after each paycheck into buying XC. I do have a 401k, but i've only been putting a small amount into it every paycheck for the last 11 months (that's when i became eligible). I can't touch the 401k without huge penalties. Remember, not everyone is always financially stable. When I made a lot more money in my mid to 20's to early 30's, i used to never give to charities and looked down at those people - asking them why are you begging. I never understood them. Now that I've live their lives, i try to give people that are even less fortunate than me something. Just to be clear, I'm not asking for a hand out. I want people to stay clear of this individual and not be scammed like me. I was greedy, thought I could make a few extra dollars to get some toys for my kids but I was burned. I'm basically at zero and will start buying XC again when i get paid this friday. What is the 401k? I never heard of that. What country do you live? 401k is company sponsored savings plan linked to mutual funds and/or the stock market. My company takes a few dollars out of my paycheck (pre tax) and invests it into a mutual fund of my choice from their list. I live in the USA. Oke, thanks for the explanation I guess. I just don't get how you can have that without a job, because you just said you lost your job right? No no, im working. Ive been in and out of jobs since my accident. Been hard finding work but i'm Ok now and i'm furthering my education. Going for a bachelors in animation and design. Money is tight, but I make it work. I skimp on things like cable tv and a basic cell phone plan but I make it work ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

Bots are going to run amok on zero fees...if Moolah ever gets it together.

Yes, Moolah has always had its own exchange. First it was Prelude. It was decent. It worked. Then they did this 'upgrade to V2' thing that they just tried to do with Mintpal and came up with this trade.moolah.io thing - which was a step backwards in my opinion. Then right after they launched Moolah V2, their CEO buys Mintpal with 2 other anonymous individuals, a service that is in direct competition with a service his company was already trying to develop and promote. Weird, right? Well, when you consider that Moolah sold investments ("slice of PIE") that entitled investors to monthly percentages of the company's profits, it seems that maybe what happened is that Moolah's CEO took his investors' money and bought Mintpal with it in an effort to maximize his own profits. Why build an exchange whose profits your investors would be entitled to a percentage of when you can instead take their money and buy your own exchange and you and your buddies get to keep all the profits (except 10% - that's what he and his 2 buddies are paying Moolah to run the exchange). It's the only scenario that makes sense to me. Whatever the case, what a fail.

Why are people even talking about Mintpal anyway? Bittrex has been far superior for quite some time. I stopped using Mintpal months ago. Hell after they got hacked I would rather use Cryptsy even.

Has anyone been able to get their XC off of Mintpal after the upgrade?
My withdrawal has been in the "awaiting confirmation" stage for way too long.
