MaidSafeCoin (MAID) - Price & Trading topic (Part 1)

This concern has been expressed over and over and over again by people who have bought and backed this project. Price currently sits below 9 cents and falling. The ability for them to keep the project moving in the correct direction are now at stake without funds and all while we are about to embark on a Christmas holiday. This exchange issue could have and should have been resolved 2-3 years ago but was pushed to the back burner and now the viability of the project and more so the ability to buy and sell for everyone lays in peril. This may not be the best look for polo but this is a HORRIBLE look for those at the top of the project itself.

Why can’t they sell at HitBTC?

:joy: :rofl:

Bittrex international is still an option to outside the US buyers. This will hurt price near-term with polo delisting and only one decent location left to trade. May drop as low as 3-5 cents or so. Hopefully enough volume can be picked up on Bittrex and MAID can make enough to keep decent runway. A real decentralized working network with no BS is the only way to success here. The market will not buy into hype and many teams claim to be delivering decentralized web, just gotta be the first to the finish line with a decent product at this point.

Without a decent runway, 1 exchange and no product (which while I think will be delivered) I highly doubt will be the first to market because this is just not how they work, it doesn’t feel as optimistic as it did a few months ago, it feels like the walls are starting to close in a bit and the only way to save it is to deliver and deliver something almost immediately (3 months)

Is HitBTC not working? They usually have 10x volume then Poloniex and dictates +80% of the MAID price. Tell me seriously why it aint working.

Hitbtc is a scam exchange and their numbers are fake.

They did not quit all omni, they will still have tether, an omni asset. So still need omni support.

That’s what I think to. If they want to sell it they will have to sell it OTC at a substantial discount. I would prolly buy some of that if so.

Migrating to the TRX DEX might be a viable way to keep a market “on polo” since they endorse it and provide a UI. I would get right back in the game if we could migrate to a DEX actually. Only thing is when it was suggested before the answer was no from people on the dev team.

Please move your funds to Bittrex so we have some liquidity on better and reputable exchange than Poloniex is now.

Disagree with the 1 exchange being a big problem. The problem is we have no market demand because of no product for years. Hopefully this changes in the next year or otherwise I would likely become as pessimistic as many in this thread are.

I have bought MAID in Hitbtc in the past with no problem

So you think they would treat B2B customers bad. Both coingecko and coinmarketcap shows HitBTC dominating volume and I know coingecko measures real/fake volume.

That they still use Tether and then retain capability for use of Omni, would make reversing this error easier for Poloniex … perhaps was just a lazy judgement on the back of a quiet market. Feedback to support now, in case that can make them reconsider.

Still odd they are also delisting Omni too… I don’t see why having small markets would cost them.

Reasons to have distributed solutions… this is just an example of the liability that is third party errors.

I think it’s a major problem because we have to remember that this was once at $1.20 or so with far less accomplished and all of that was because of the bitcoin rise. If we happen to see another bitcoin rise in the near future because of a cycle, halving or otherwise we will not even see artificial price movement if there is only one place to buy it and we of course will certainly see nothing with no new bitcoin and continued lack of delivery.

I just woke up with a Hangover from Christmas festivities.
Check my email from Poloniex.
I won how much moneys?

Price has little to do with the state of projects.
Those focused on price of crypto typically are missing the point…

Price is a mix more of the relative footprint and the timing of entering the market. The evidence of that, is how the prices across so many cryptos are strongly bound to BTC… price matters only when decoupled from BTC and those occasions are rare.

Talking down progress is a bit off… we’ve seen so much progress this year.

Two last points for tonight:

The OTC trade price can be easilly higher than spot. :+1:

and HitBTC does have a bad rap… though Poloniex has fouled up and there is evidently space for bigger and better exchanges going forward.

Distribute all the things!!

Have a good break and in the words of Hitchhiker’s Guide … Don’t Panic :smiley:
