Those 2 guys from Bitstamp said many times that leocoin is probably a scam coin and they do not like leocoin at all. There were many articles in Slovenia claiming leocoin is a scam.
Here are links:

I dont know why those 2 guys don´t like leocoin and why they contact CMC??It is obvious that leocoin should be on first sit of CMC like it worldcoindex.
As with any project in the financial sector, it is all about money. For this reason, banks do not like digital cash. In fact it does so many things better as them, that one may be inclined to wonder if a word wide network of cryptocoins would not be a better alternative. But alas, many people involved with digital currencies measure anything short of a replacement of government money as a failure. Similar to that, incumbents do not like newcomers. At least with LEOcoin it is open who the founders are. And what goals we as LEOcoin Foundation have.
When the DAO was misused, we saw that many in the CC-world had their own views and ideas. Now having ETC next to ETH is a fact, but how this is valued strongly differs in the community. For two years now, LEOcoin has been clear in its aspirations, and from the start we have been labeled by others having their own agendas. It is as it is. For now, LEOcoin is doing well, heading towards the 1GBP mark.
And if it actually is true, that some people are actually opposing the rise of LEOcoin (journalists, bitstamp owners, etc.) one may ask why they are so scared. Imagine, LEOcoin indeed rising up to levels like ETH or even BTC. If this happens, the LEOcoin owners will applause, if it does not happen, the critics will boast 'their' view. For now, calling LEOcoin a 'scam' is just name-calling, not anything substantial. Believing something, does not make it true. So let us see where the coming months will take us.
Market conditions are changing, and they are looking well for digital currencies as safe places while banks and economies struggle. This offers fantastic opportunities for LEOcoin, both in terms of acceptance as in rise of market capital.
