Let me tell you the real reasons BTX price dropped so much:
There is no reliable exchange where I can safely deposit 10k $ and buy BTX, I tried all with volume, i used cryptopia, bit-z, hitbtc, every time with issues and delays, up to 12 weeks hijacking my coins and my airdrop. And what did they do with all those airdropped coins? SELL.
Assuming I want to buy BTX, from the moment I deposit my BTC to buy BTX, there is a high chance I will just lose my BTC without getting BTX and totally ignoring it's demand.
And since it is traded only on those shitty exchanges, those exchanges are totally manipulating the price since they can, inflating and deflating to scam you of more BTC, BTX.
I tried easyrabbit a few times, went smoothly, but since some days it doesn't work to buy BTX...
If I would be a BTX dev, I would give all the money or a shitton of money to get listed to a reputable exchange. This thing saddens me the most, since last year still no possibility to buy safely bitcore and hoard them cold and shiny.
have you tried using Indacoin? they will let you buy BTX directly with a credit card. i haven't used them, but i think the fee ends up being quite large - maybe even up to 10 % but i am speculating. Plus cards usually have a limit on how much you can buy at one time. I used to use a credit card on changelly to get bitcoin, and then an exchange to convert that to bitcore, and I remember changelly's fee was around that amount. that won't help much once you want to sell it though. Also, depending on where you were posting from, I wonder if attempting to deposit a value other than 10 k might make a difference. I know that in the united states special notice is taken by the government for money movements at 10k and larger; maybe that is adding to the delays. If you are up for trying again, you may want to try 9 k and see if it makes a difference.
