Looks like it was a scam out to get Bittrex if you ask me.
"EXCHANGES:
- We're looking to get on Bittrex once we launch! "
Maybe the people who are blaming Bittrex should be blaming their shady dev. Anyone willing to go along with this obviously lost money and is looking for someone to take down with them. You guys are just as pathetic as the dev.
Had to include a great post from the first page...
Bittrex is not the problem. YOU are the problem. Who ask you to buy elite ?
U lost money and u are angry ? Get over it, just like people who got BTC on gox.
If u loss money and start blaming, u should seriously get out of alt and hold your BTC.
Nobody force u to buy any coin. U buy it , u know the risk. If u loss money, don't blame others but yourself.
I do not blame Bittrex for losing money as I did not invest in the coin. However I blame them for the following:
* Taking no care in adding coins leading to support scam developers again and again
* Not really caring about it and acting like they have no professional responsibility, no plans to try and change the situation
* Hurting users and potentially driving them away from altcoin trading due to the risks of a coin being a scam
* Taking volume away from established coins by purely just relying on new coins for volume
It's sad to see how few people notice how damaging this is on the altcoin market, it's not by coincidence there is much less volume now than a few months ago.
