I agree that there is no point in giving anybody private data to get the coin listed on an exchange that has yet to prove its worth.
All the hype around proof-of-developer about one year ago has proven not to provide any protection for the users. ZEIT has proven to be a solid coin and thus there is no need to put the decision on listing dependent on providing private data to a party that itself does not reveal all of theirs.
Now having said that, it is that exchange own decision what they want to get in order to list a coin. Also I don't think the example of bitcoin is good in this context, provided different scales of the recognition. But I agree in general lines that zeit has already proven enough.
Even if they prove their worth, they are asking for info , that the Knights should begin to hold sacred.
Things to consider
1. When Zeit is worth a $1 , do you really want your ID and address public, when everyone knows you are holding 100 million dollars worth of zeit.
2. Some Knights may live in countries were crypto is outlawed in the future, and could face legal issues, if known publicly .
3. Some would just prefer the simple life and not be hounded by the media.
4. If you are willing to be a public celebrity, be prepared to hire a security staff round the clock for you and your family.
Plus our source code is directly on github for the world to see,
Their can be no greater or open transparency than that.
I see what
ZEIT is becoming, and it will be more known and more used than BTC, in Time , so for me context is a non issue.
, enlarge the fonts , so we can read it.
