On the 15th of January Bittrex will delist privacy coins Monero, Dash and Zcash.

The news already affected the prices of the popular privacy coins with the price of them going down more than 10% in the last 24 hours.

What I hate about the decision is the sudden announcement and the fact that Bittrex hasn't given any reason for their decision. Sure, I understand that the move comes after governments concerned with money laundering are pushing exchanges to do so, but giving no explanation for your action and announcing it so abruptly seems like a bad decision from such a big exchange.

Also, we have the right to our damn privacy!
