Apparently I made the list, although I've said the coin probably serves no purpose right now, never actually recommended the coin to anyone, and think most nation coins are silly. You have also repeatedly said I was Chinese (even though I'm not). You'll do best if you just stick with sane posts.

I agreed with you last night when you found the Bittrex thing. I don't agree that means we know who is using the fake account, but good catch finding it.

Your contributions and enthusiasm in HKC ANN thread seems contradict to what you said here.

The following is what you have said in HKC ANN thread:

Any idea with this coin will be listed on coinmarketcap?

BTW, can you think of any other places you would like to see this coin listed?

Some people are still sleeping on HKC and they need to be aware it's out there.

Poloniex would seem like the next logical step for the coin. It's still a small exchange, but not as small as Bittrex. A lot of nation coins seem to 'graduate' to there before then moving to larger exchanges.

I fixed a bug while depositing HongKong Coin to the exchange, it should work now.

Bittrex Team

I incorrectly thought this someone who worked for Bittrex until I read your post. Thanks for putting the record straight.

Well done for going out of your way to warn people about this, most exchanges would have just ignored it unless they received direct complaints.

There is a user going by 'bittrex' that is signing off their message with "Bittrex Team" that is completely unrelated to our exchange.  Please be weary whenever people make contact with you over forum boards.

For those who are interested, the only bittrex members in the forums bittrex-bill, bittrex-rami, and myself.  You can always contact us via email @bittrex.com.

This doesn't only go for us... please be careful with anyone contacting you and verify.



Just to clarify: This is your Twitter, right: https://twitter.com/BittrexExchange

I don't want any more mishaps when communicating with you.

Why is my name included here ?

You made a post on the ann thread that you were giving away free coins?

So i asked you for some and you gave them to me , so thank you  Smiley

Im in no way affiliated with HCK or Bittrex , i just wanted free coins Cheesy

Thank you!

Please accept my apology if I have made a mistake.

I put your name there is because you are the 1st member who quickly posted to against my post for not listing HKC in Reddit of Coinedup.

Upon your request and clarification, I removed your name in the list.  Grin

Apologize to me too - scumbag. I replied to the 'fake account' in the thread because I assume it was someone from Bittrex.

HKC is listed on Bittrex and the user's name was 'Bittrex.' I didn't take any time to investigate the user's origin - because why would I? I made one or two casual and polite replies because I thought they were updating the thread.

Replying to an account does not make you that person. Besides, I don't see what possible advantage this fake account could have given anyone and I wouldn't waste one second of
my time on childish crap like this.

You need to grow up and get on with your own life.

be careful with impersonating user, they are scammer!

I have just got a clarification from Poloniex (real one) that those Poloniex and Poloniex-team in Bitcointalk are fake. They were created on 21 March 2014 and 22 March 2014. Almost at the same of the fake "Bittrex" created by HongKongCoin dev team.

Here is the reply from Poloniex

You are absolutely correct. I have just sent a ticket to Poloniex to ask for their clarification.
