Before I found NobleCoin I was strictly mining and trading for profit, but I've found myself making more emotionally biased decisions regarding my NobleCoin position and although I can't speak for everyone in the NobleCoin community, I feel this is the general consensus.
I feel that the recent series of events regarding some of the smaller coin-coin exchanges have severely hurt NobleCoin, many people have either lost NobleCoin or been struck with extended periods of uncertainty regarding their NobleCoin holdings. With the lack of an established, secure and respectable exchange many people who are using alt coins for investment, especially ones that are not easily tradeable due to low trade volume as a result of lack of exchange support, will be dumping for a more secure option.
I personally believe that NobleCoin has a bright future, it has set a precedent of transparency and good will, and I feel it has been attacked for this, of course I am biased, but of all the coins I have mined/traded I feel that NobleCoin is the most Ideologically legitimate.
I hope you really consider NobleCoin, for everything the Dev and community of this coin has strived to achieve, I believe they deserve more support from more established organizations in the crypto world, because it feels to me like they've been snubbed out.
Anyway That's my piece, good luck to all the other coins and I hope to see noble on your exchange in the future!
