easybit: draft → held. Grade C recorded. Direct-URL findable; excluded from category listings, search, feeds. Rationale: removed-XMR-support on 2025-07-09 disqualifies as a reader-recommended Monero swap venue, but retained on shelf for kyc.rip data-integration continuity per curator directive. Re-evaluate for active status if EasyBit publicly restores XMR support.
EasyBit draft at Grade C, status draft. CRITICAL removed-XMR-2025 finding surfaced in review lede. Listing rationale: kyc.rip data-integration continuity per user directive (2026-08-02, "we already listed most providers kyc.rip is gonna integrate: swapgate, bitcoinvn, baltex, easybit"). Awaiting curator decision on final status: held (excluded from category listings/search/feeds but direct-URL findable) vs active (surfaces in exchanges index with strong warnings) vs reject (add to rejection log with removed-XMR-support as new named disqualifier).
