Hey guys,
After 5 long years, our relationship with Bittrex is, unfortunately, coming to an end.
I was informed this morning that this decision is final and all DopeCoin holders are instructed to remove their coins from the exchange by the delisting date.
Don't panic.
We are available for trading on Mercatox and available for Atomic swaps on Komodo. Additionally, we are having great discussions with several exchanges at the moment and negotiating listing terms.
The DopeCoin project is not going anywhere, in fact the exact opposite is about to occur.
Over the last 2 years, we have spent our time wisely developing our own payment gateway and advertising exchange which we are preparing to beta launch early next month. The purpose of this technology is not to simply exist and be added as an asset to our infrastructure but instead, we intend to completely disrupt several very large industries such as the legal marijuana industry and crypto, with our much needed technology.
There is no other cannabis cryptocurrency in existence that can compete with our technology.
With that being said, this past week has exposed some flaws in our infrastructure that we are rapidly working to correct.
One of those problems was allowing a 3rd party like Bittrex to be perceived as such a critical factor in our operation. The reality is that this is simply an exchange.
There are many exchanges including a whole bunch of new promising companies that will likely blow up during the next bull run. We will not make this mistake again and are actively communicating with several exchanges with regards to listing.
Another issue that we need to address immediately is our community building.
I will admit over the last year I dropped the ball on this and instead focused heavily on developing our tech and racing to get it ready for market as soon as possible. In reality, I am more of a tech recluse and I recognize my lack of skillset in the community building department.
Luckily, we have some great community members who are awesome at this and are stepping up to the plate to tackle this issue head-on. We have had some legends take on this task in the past such as @DopeCoinDude and @Goldie. and we will surely see new champions emerge over the coming months.
With that being said we are looking for the communities help and already have plans for massive giveaways and the approval and funding of community-driven projects.
We have some amazing technology preparing to launch and massive partnerships pending that we expect to announce within the next month in combination with Tier 1 media coverage.
What a great opportunity to capture new community members and breath new life into our project.
Additionally, we will be hiring a full time dedicated community manager over the coming weeks to ensure our chances of success and to attack this problem head-on.
Our team is deep in discussions at the moment deciding if our best move is to simply leave DopeCoin the way it is and get on new exchanges, rebrand/upgrade the technology and then get new exchange listings, or simply rebrand Dopecoin using the existing tech and get on new exchange listings.
Please let us know what you think.
There is an "Ask me anything" zoom call scheduled for tomorrow morning if you would like to attend: It is scheduled for tomorrow at 10 am (GMT +7)

Our journey is just beginning.
Best regards,
Adam Howell
