Good stance.. Crack is much better than meth?
LSD, DOPE etc etc
Bittrex' standards seem arbitrary.
I think the METH analogy isn't quite accurate in this case. Gimp is a derogatory term for a disabled person. While we like joke coins and freedom of speech, this could be considered derogatory and we've decided to draw the line on it.
In regards to METH, this was a personal favor I asked from the other members of Bittrex to not list. I've personally had friends go through terrible struggles due to the drug and decided to not have it listed even as a joke.
I apologize if our standards seem arbitrary. Our stance is to reject very few coins from our exchange. Most coins don't make it because we don't have time to list them all. In the few cases we've recently chosen to not list, it came down to a few areas. 1) potential unlicensed securities 2) coins whose purpose are to redeem drugs that are considered illegal in the united states 3) and in this most recent example, derogatory terms.
