So what I understand is that the dev's would've wanted to list ICN on any exchange, because they promised the investor ICN will be listed on big exchanges and that is why they raised that much money among other reasons, so they got in touch with the exchanges, but those bitches from the exchanges just throw in their face an NDA to make them shut the f**uk up ... right? Probably the dev's even got threaded that the ICN will never be listed on those exchanges if they do not obey and sign the NDAs. This is the way to judge this ? ... or we should not even try to use our heads ... we just have to be true believers right ?
In reality its much simpler. IF they did not made an agreement with some of the exchanges to manipulate the price they could've just come and say to us something like this ... "Hey guys we submitted the request to be listed there and there, those exchanges came with shady things so we told them to go fuck them self, its not in our reach any more to listed there, and yes we already payed the lauzy 3 BTC to have it on Bitrex, because we respect our investors, sorry for not being able to do more, but we try to stay transparent and not get involved in shady schema with the evil Polo guys".
I presume now its too late, so personally I am not planing long term here, as for me its a red flag when simple things that are related to transparency are transformed in complicated NDA taped things.
I hope when it gets to Polo there will be enough stupid people to pump this up to 5 USD / ICN ... sell it all, rebuy at 1 USD or less .. and so on.
What I cannot understand is "the listing of ICN is purely the exchange's decision", if that is the case, why would there be an NDA about this? Agreement or not, it is not up to the devteam so why on earth would you sign an agreement with someone that forces you to keep stuff like this secret?
