KOBO potential coin for future

Nice volume spike on coinexchange!

I agree but not nice volume spike on Yobit.net, this will only create bad feeling for the coin and upset when the buyers realise they can NOT withdraw the kobocoin to their personnal wallets.
Unfortunately the apparent arbitrage between exchanges means people will always chase the quick profits without doing their due diligence first and learn the hard way, the only safe solution appears to be to close down the yobit kobocoin listings to limit the damage and move on

I've already requested this many times. No reply.

I've just requested that CoinMarketcap remove the market from the KOBO page. I'll see what they say.

Tedious for you, goes on for 2 years now, wonder how many coins are stuck with them now ?! 
Btw, Coinmarketcap do not list the Cryptopia kobocoin/litecoin and kobocoin/dogecoin pairs and nor do they list the Nova exchange.com with it's 4 pairs(btc, doge, esp2 and eth), perhaps another email to add these? Potentially good volume to be added by these strong trading pairs but people would not know they exist because most rely only coinmarketcap for updates and would overlook them(like I did!).

Meant to say, great news about coinomi wallet, shows that a good Dev is needed at the helm to keep the blockchain healthy and do the difficult coding work, looking forward to the electrum update, keep up the good work 
Any hints about getting onto an African exchange in the near future? Many Africans no doubt, are looking to invest in an up and coming crypto like this

Regards.

P.S. Thanks to the Cheddur guys for the addition

Coinmarketcap worked quick, Yobit price is no longer included in the market average, and because they were always heavily weighted downwards, kobocoin has increased by 87% in 1 day, lol.

What is the reason that Yobit prices were removed from the average coin price calculation? Because of low volume on their exchange?

No, because of withdrawal issues. I have requested that they sort out the withdrawal issue for 2 years now. No help or reply. The withdrawal issue is skewing the price on CMC.

I wish they would remove the market altogether so that it doesn't show up at all on their website as newcomers may still see it as a legitimate place to buy KOBO.

There are a few coins out there with the same issue and YoBit price is excluded on CMC.

CMC is one of the fewservices in crypto that have a good support department.

Don't let the idiots at Yobit make you believe that all crypto support departments are as rubbish as they are.

These markets used to be listed but consistently low volume meant that CMC removed them. I will monitor those markets. If I see any of them have 'some' volume I will request to get them added.

Didn't know that, hopefully volume will kick up a gear and they'll get going again. Would be good to see a kobo/eth pair.
(I figure exchanges like yobit, when they run out of new coins to add, could go the way of cryptsy and btc-e unless they seriously sort out the customers services end)

Problem is they won't run out of new coins

UPDATE - COINOMI WALLET INTEGRATION

I am very happy to inform the KOBO community that we are now LIVE on the Coinomi mobile multiwallet!

Get it on Google Play for Android
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.coinomi.wallet

Get it on the App Store for iOS
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/coinomi-wallet/id1333588809

Screenshots

Fully integrated with exchange rate features:


Store not only KOBO but also all your popular cryptos. Please note that ShapeShift and Changelly are not supported for KOBO at this time.


No need for syncing the blockchain. Electurm servers keep the wallet up to date:


And the very big news is that users can SWEEP A PAPER WALLET. This opens the door for selling KOBO via QRCode. A real step forward!


I am also in negotiations with SatoWallet devs to get it added to their mobile multiwallet.

Progess continues. The Coinomi wallet will be heavily pushed on the updated website.

TT

Yeah!

I've been trying to get them to resolve this for almost 2 years now. Their support doesn't answer. I even tried to pay for it to be repaired and still got no reply. I've asked them to delist Kobo but they won't even do that.

All I can do is to make sure it is no longer advertised on the website.

Sorry but I don't see any solution on the horizon for the YoBit problem.

[tekbe]

Is it known how many coins are stuck on Yobit?

[nightfury626]

I think a little over 1BTC worth of kobocoin altogether stuck in yobit

[The_Tribesman]

There's been quite a few people who have contacted me very recently about this (mainly on twitter). I'm hoping they will all contact Yobit support. Maybe if everyone contacts them they will see that they need to resolve the issue.

It's very frustrating and unfortunately beyond my control. The only slight relief I can give everyone is that we are not the only people experiencing this with YoBit. I've seen MANY disgruntled posts and tweets about Yobit.

They are well known for withdrawal issues.
