Are you suggesting setting up a stand alone exchange for trading of CBX/UNO exclusively?
The exchange is already ready ...
https://www.cryptopia.co.nz/Exchange?market=CBX_UNOThe advantage is cross support without the need to constantly back the price with BTC.
The essence of this 'horizontal stuff,' Elambert, is a recognition that similar coins with small caps can 'cross-boot-strap' each other.
Now, in the present situation, members of either coin can trade the other
via Bitcoin., and that's beneficial.
But if the two communities each see the other as a sort of 'holding tank' of value against each other* (and Bitcoin is not the middleman . . . ), really significant amounts of buy-support could become the norm.We are calling here, fellow crypto-commodity developers, for a consideration of a fundamental change of consciousness.
*And I wanna discuss 'bagholderism' a bit later: long time community members end up with a little too much of one crypto than is perhaps healthy for its perception by potential investors. We could progress to significant otc trades between the communities.
Ok, I think I follow now. Your logic makes sense and is a good marketing tool to help UNO grow their market/trading pairs at Cryptopia. I am not opposed to CBX holders getting involved with this should they desire UNO. Just like with the CBX/LTC trade pair or Ripple/CBX trade pair at Cryptsy - people have more options to obtain what they desire without going through BTC.
However, for me personally, I honestly have no interest in other cryptos. So for me to trade CBX for Uno, LTC, Ripple, Bitcoin or even cash for that matter does not make sense. I have worked my butt off for over 2 years on CBX and am fully committed in heart, time and money to continuing this journey with 100% commitment and focus.
To each their own though, but I am confident in what we are doing and where we are going so I don't think I would be of much help in this endeavor...
