Why would they close the cent/XPM market? The volume is through the roof everyday, while people are making huge mistakes by (unwittingly) buying in the LTC market.
Because they closing ltc/xpm not by volume, but buy price. Volume is still high compared to other coins here (look at my message where i'm doing some calculations:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.4183210 ).. Price at xpm/cent at the floor now, so they easily can decide to close xpm/cent in future.. They are doing this because they know something. Remember btc-e news about closing trc/ftc markets then after a day or so this news was edited..?
cryptohunter, i fully agreed with you about interest of vern & john. And closing ltc market has the same point of interest..
I don't get it, how would they earn more interest if they closed the markets, as most people would more likely withdraw their cents at that point?
And besides, wallets at Cryptsy don't earn interest so Vern and John would have to buy their cent coins like the rest of us.
Finally, if they knew something they wouldn't close down the markets, they would be buying up a massive amount so I'm not following you there. All the bad news is baked into cent - come jan 8th the volume will dry up and then cent can be used as a legitimate coin and it already has a purpose which, ironically, cent itself has already proved - that a new cheaper and very liquid coin is needed to properly price cheaper coins on all exchanges.
And I don't blame them for closing down the LTC market when cent is selling for 1/8th the lowest LTC price on the XPM market. I would close down the LTC market (temporarily) simply as a fiduciary duty to my clients as many are unwittingly paying 8 times the current cent price not realizing how much cheaper cent is on the XPM market.
So again, I see nothing for Vern and John to personally gain by closing down the LTC market and especially the CENT/XPM market.
I don't think they will close the xpm, they have no reason to. However are you sure whilst cents are at cryptsy they do not make interest? The exchange is just a bunch of html and script we play with right. The real coins are stored in an actually wallet somewhere? why would they not be earning interest whilst being there?
I think the xpm cent market will stay i never thought it would vanish, like you say there is volume, they make money on it why close it. It is even possible i guess if cent really did become rather stable in price it could be the foundation for a cheap coin market like you say. But i can not see it rising above 5 or 10 in the xpm market for some time. You have to realise people are holding in their wallets now trying to get one more stake. Once this is over they will have no need to hang on to that. We have people claiming they still hold trillions in their wallets.
ALSO - can someone answer this
I have a few cent wallets, the stake rate seems different in each.
Also i see on the older wallets some stakes not working perhaps because the the stake amount is 99M before stake?
If i just copy the wallet.dat to a newer version of the cent wallet, do the newer versions allow larger stakes to process? or is this irrelavent?
I found a wallet with 2billion in that had not been opened for about 4 weeks, that is terrible news?? although before i had had wallets closed and they start staking right away even seeming to stake more than expected.
Lots of transactions went in there for 99 Milloin i guess 2 stakes would have exceeded the 1 BIllion stake level?
Strange though the one that had been closed for ages seems to be staking like mad right now??
