What is C-CEX on? This is ridiculous from them, won't ever use that exchange again.
Thinking about opening a scam accusation on them.
CCEX is overworked. Do you see the massive amount of shit they’ve got for trade. It can’t be easy keeping all of it up-to-date and semi-working.
I suspect they wanted an easy-to-integrate vanilla NXT clone from HEAT. When they didn’t get that, they looked for any reason they could to get out since they don’t have the staff to integrate anything new. Customers and partners be damned!
Hell, I think they might actually lack the competent staff to apply a multiplier to customer database fields. Shoestring operation, for sure. I’m not going anywhere near that trash exchange ever again.
I think it was a contract agreement to provide a basic nxt api with heat. I would love to hear the ccex version of all this as there are always at least two sides of the story. In my opinion what ccex did is a dickmove. But the heat team made a lot of dickmoves too... So can you really honestly say that ccex is alone to blame for this?
No, C-CEX is not alone to blame. There is enough of that to go around. Certainly the HEAT project delays bear some, too.
But C-CEX didn't act in good faith. First, they issue an ultimatum in form of deadline. Then they remain unresponsive until the final moments leading up to that deadline. When they finally do respond, the HEAT team whipped out compatible API changes in 15 minutes.
We will never know the full extent of the contracts or discussions. From the outside looking in, C-CEX looks pretty bad here. Too many customers totally screwed.
Yeah customers are pretty screwed, those customers who bought heat directly! C-CEX austomers are not screwed at all, they can sell for the ico price and don't have to worry a thing. They can also buy if they want! They have a choice, we that bought directly have no choice! And WE who bought directly receive no updates from the heat team what happens! WE are screwed, ccex customers are not! I wish I bought at ccex right now! In my opinion, if you look at it from an outside perspective, if you had nothing to do with heat, ccex looks pretty good here! If they offer to participate in an ico with them you know you will at the very least get your investment back!
IF I will ever participate in an ico again, which is very unlikely to happen after this disaster, I would consider to buy at ccex!
EDIT:
What ccex is doing is actually pretty clever! It is called keeping their options open! They can kick out heat completely and return the funds. They can let the users choose if they want to buy or sell heat for the ico price and stil apply the multiplier later. They have options!! And none of these options seems bad! Heat team has only bad options! They screwed up to get heat on any significant exchange, I mean they absolutely screwed it up, bittrex was the first move. No exchange wants to deal with them. The community is pissed off and NO those are not my sockpuppets that are pissed of! Accept the truth, trust me it is time! If you still ignore everything that is fucked up with heat, then you will get nowhere! Admitting mistakes is the first step, if the heat team can not even admit what they did wrong, how are they supposed to correct these mistakes?! This ignoring of any mistakes they made has been going on FAR too long and it is too late. A simple statement can not fix this! Even if heat turns out to deliver good technology, the management of this project has destroyed every chance of any success. I wish it was otherwise, but no significant exchange, no hope for future exchange, pissed off community, incompetent management. Sorry, but this is dead. Return the funds to the investors man.
