Are you saying that it's healthier for a coin to be on big exchanges like BTCe? Even if they get manipulated?
You've got to be careful with that word "manipulated".
Buying a lot of something and driving the price up is not illegitimate "manipulation". The stuff's there on offer in the order books and if someone comes along and buys it, they've paid the money. You can't really call it "manipulation" and no-one can know what reasons lay behind their trades.
This goes on all the time in forex markets, it's just that the liquidity's so huge that the price movements are tiny. The route to a stable store of value therefore isn't through trying to avoiding "manipulators", it's through having your currency traded in high liquidity markets.
(Of course, that means the price must go way up first. The higher the value goes, the more stable the asset gets for a given trading volume).
Ok, stand corrected. Do you think we should raise the funds to get on BTCe? Is this a worthy goal?
I trust your judgement, but be aware, I also forget things very easily, LOL, so If I'm making your repeat yourself, my apologies
