Bittrex delists Bitshares and everybody loses their mind

The latest is that Bittrex is removing Bitshares from their exchange. Apparently this has caused people to run left and right and sell. Bitshares, as of writing, is down to $0.062 (which I must say is a good point to buy, DYOR). However, the reason for writing this post is, while reading @tech-trends's post I saw that it might be a technical misunderstanding on Bittrex's part. A misunderstanding caused Bitshares to lose ~ $55 million in 4 hours? Amazing. This might not be the case, but there doesn't seem to be any other plausible reason. Also, with this happening, I saw something interesting on Reddit: where should i store my BTS after delisting from Bittrex... Does this mean there are people who don't know that Bitshares is a DEX (Decentralized Exchange) itself, and they are selling because there doesn't seem to be a good place to "put it"? Hmm... Edit: From the Bitshares Telegram group: Bittrex refuses to comment on reasoning behind delisting and are not willing to enter into a dialogue. Any reasons you see people give are pure speculation and most likely FUD
