Do you realize how easy it would be to forge the order books ?
NO i do not trust Poloniex.
Hard to believe I am quoting you however this holds weight. Who say's whales are manipulating the prices of alts? Do people forget Gox that quickly? People love the transparency of a blockchain and yet they support a 3rd party exchange with zero transparency?
Exactly..
And when a fishy thing is going on like every altcoin being pumped to hell & back i stop and get suspicious !
When others scream.. Take my money now !
These exchanges are centralized and non transparent and have almost all been hacked etc.
I made a list and i lost count.. around 12 or so have cried they were hacked.
Yet you all just hope the next one will be different.
Do you know how much Cryptsy boasted about the impenetrable cold storage methods ?
I seen a guy quote them saying it a while back.. it was funny LOL
Then later..
Vern simply cries "I wuz hacked" as i predicted.
Blames some weak IRC related code that was even posted on Github..
And even though they said they never ran precompiled wallets..
They said they did for Lucky7coin.. after they got hacked.
What does all that mean ?
Shit talkers ! TALKING SHIT GALORE.
Feeding you BULLSHIT NON STOP then doing the compete opposite day in & day out.
ALL OF THEM DO IT !
I said years go they will rob someone on the way out the door as this shit implodes.
And that is exactly what has played out all over crypto..
For example the trusted escrow guy here Master-P
He collected up your money then wandered off with it.. then got caught lying his ass off after.
I have been warning you guys and you all have said ahhh bahhh so what.
Well when the scene gets that bad it may be YOUR money on the exchange or the escrow etc.
The environment decays to the point where trading just is far too risky..
Which is why i quit trading long ago.
I got tired of sending coins over then being lied to with massive delays etc.
The reliability of sending coins from exchange to exchange was horrendous.
And all these exchanges have to do is lie to you.. Cryptsy did it to me many times.
AND even admitted it to us all with users being lied to then their info handed off to US fed's for investigation !
If you can't see how corrupt it has become then YOU are the corrupt one LOL
Smart people got out looooong ago guys.
Don't be low hanging crypto-fruit
EDIT:
@NUFCrichard
Good point and me too LOL
