Title: crypto.pm | an upcoming cryptocurrency exchange Post by: Lemon on April 15, 2013, 01:33:49 AM Whilst we have yet to even begin drumming up interest in our upcoming platform (or even make the launch page public), I've decided to post some information about it here in order to celebrate the fact that we've finally settled on a name (of which a domain was actually available). We highly doubt that we will be launching to the general public before at least six months from today, due to the legal groundwork involved - and also due to the fact that we also have no intention of releasing a faulty product.
----- [ About ] crypto.pm is an advanced cryptocurrency exchange featuring state of the art security and performance enhancements. Our goal is to provide a trading platform that offers 100% highly performant uptime, whilst providing the highest level of resilience and security available. We treat every single bit of information that we store as if it was our own credit card number. With hashing and encryption taken to a level that some might find overkill, we ensure that the security of your data is absolute. Beyond this, to ensure performance - we have built a highly redundant self scaling architecture that grows as traffic levels rise. Sadly, we won't be ready to launch to the general public for quite a while. After all, we want to do this properly and ensure that we release a resilient platform that will be used for many years to come (and let's not forget all the legal paperwork that we need to deal with). In the interim, what we mostly need are ideas. Whilst donations are always appreciated, we are far more interested in what we can get out of your brain. So, if you have any suggestions for us - then please, let us know. Now, for the interesting part. Our fee structure. To be blunt, we are not looking to make a profit with this exchange, as long as costs are covered and we can ensure that there is a healthy safety buffer - then we're happy. As a result, we have a flat fee of 0.18% across the board. There are no volume discounts, and we're pretty sure that despite that, we will have the lowest trading fees on the market. ----- [ FAQ ] Currencies At launch, we will be supporting the following currencies. AUD, CAD, EUR, GBP, USD Fees 0.18% (flat rate) * additional fees charged by payment processors may be incurred. Security We take security very seriously. Each and every bit of information that we store (and we try to make it as minimal as possible) is treated as if it were the credit card number of a staff member. Numerous forms of encryption and hashing are used in order to ensure data security and core system access is multi-factored and highly limited. Beyond this, we highly recommend that you withdraw any large amounts of BTC held in your account following a trade to cold storage unless you intend to use them in the near future. Support for automated transfers if no account activity has happened within <X> days is provided for people wishing to take advantage of this feature. Verification People trading over a certain level of currency will be required to verify their identity. This is a regulatory requirement and if we chose to ignore it, we could not offer this service and would possibly enjoy some prison time for facilitating money laundering. ----- [ Technology ] Client Side html javascript websockets Server Side aggressive caching clustered architecture geodns balancing mongodb node.js postgresql redis websockets Development Side caffeine snacks ----- [ Contact ] Have any questions?

Title: Re: crypto.pm | an upcoming cryptocurrency exchange Post by: Lemon on April 15, 2013, 01:07:13 PM People watching this thread might be interested to know that we are currently in talks with the FCA (successor to the FSA) with the goal of becoming authorized and are also currently working with a legal firm in order to ensure full KYC compliance in order to achieve maximum stability of the business.

Title: Re: crypto.pm | an upcoming cryptocurrency exchange Post by: Lemon on April 15, 2013, 01:38:55 PM Sounds interesting! Do you consider SEPA funding four us european folks? This is definitely something we're planning on. The legal groundwork to accept currency in multiple formats with receiving banks in numerous countries (for speed and cost reasons) is an absolute nightmare, but is something we're making headway on!

Title: Re: crypto.pm | an upcoming cryptocurrency exchange Post by: Lemon on April 15, 2013, 03:04:22 PM Where are you guys operating from? We are physically based in the United Kingdom, which is the reason for our working with the Financial Conduct Authority (they are the main financial regulatory body in the UK after the FSA split on April 1st). This project is the result of a number of talks with key people in the UK banking and trading industry in regards to the hoops we would have to jump through. We've decided that the hoops won't be a problem. Title: Re: crypto.pm | an upcoming cryptocurrency exchange Post by: Lemon on April 15, 2013, 11:50:10 PM We've received quite a few emails in regards to crypto.pm - and we'll be offering invites to roughly another 40 people if they're interested in testing the trading platform. Testing is performed with simulated currencies during the early days.

Some technical questions, what kind of encryption are you using exactly? You boast of encryption but it's short on technical details. How many trades per second can your trading engine handle? We need some specs. Title: Re: crypto.pm | an upcoming cryptocurrency exchange Post by: Lemon on April 16, 2013, 09:32:35 PM tldr My advice is you should either do a Kickstarter or offer shares on cryptostocks.

We need some specs. Whilst we do not require any form of external funding to bring this project to fruition - we are considering a cryptostock style implementation, we'll have some more information in the near future. We're finalizing our encryption standards, and will be releasing details on this this coming Friday. In terms of trades per second, it can currently handle a little over 60,000 per second - and we're still in the midst of doing heavy optimization work on the engine. Sorry if I have appeared vague in terms of specifications, but as we're finishing off finalizing them - I didn't want to provide false information.

That many trades per second is based on a single worker node currently, and they should (theoretically) scale up as traffic increases - increasing the total number of trades per second that the engine can handle. The postgresql database is clustered to hell and back and can handle damn near whatever we throw at it.

I can do branding, web design, 3D, Illustration and pretty much any design related content. If you can do the technical stuff I am confident I could create a professional looking exchange, my coding at the moment is limited to HTML & CSS. I have been working on this project lately (http://www.marketutopia.co.uk/ (http://www.marketutopia.co.uk/)).
How come the .pm domain name by the way? Is it not better to use a .com and register the .co.uk too?

May I ask about the testing environment? Was that from a single client over network, or a single local client? Also, single client actually can't make a trade, as two clients are needed. What is the connection protocol, API? I am interested in the performance testing, and am going to conduct a performance testing of ICBIT exchange, however I would like to do it as close to real situation as possible.

It's a distributed worker environment, but the test environment is working with one of everything on the exchange side.

Is it not better to use a .com and register the .co.uk too? It's not necessarily better to use a .com; and as we're targeting a global market - we wanted a country neutral domain. Out of all the suggestions given to us by our brand agency, we ended up with crypto.pm - I like it personally! Title: Re: crypto.pm | an upcoming cryptocurrency exchange Post by: evilscoop on April 18, 2013, 01:32:50 PM .pm is hardly country neutral....since .pm is a country...but hey....

Title: Re: crypto.pm | an upcoming cryptocurrency exchange Post by: Lemon on April 21, 2013, 06:46:15 PM We've now completed our migration from our testing platform (which was on crappy Heroku) to our development platform. We've also deployed version 0.35 to the masses.
We're still handing out invites to those interested! Title: Re: crypto.pm | an upcoming cryptocurrency exchange Post by: Lemon on April 23, 2013, 12:38:09 AM So, testing is going very well at the moment - and user feedback has been critical to the ongoing development of this platform. Talks with the FCA are going well, and we've narrowed down our choice of bank down to two after a number of high level talks.
Invites for the simulated test platform are still available. ----- https://crypto.pm/gfx/crypto_dashboard.png https://crypto.pm/gfx/crypto_buy.png https://crypto.pm/gfx/crypto_deposit.png Title: Re: crypto.pm | an upcoming cryptocurrency exchange Post by: evilscoop on April 23, 2013, 11:27:23 AM Can I get an invite there please lemon

You are also welcome to contact the managing director of Cryptography LTD (who is not me) via hello@citrus.pw for evidence, identification or clarification on any point. Edit: To clarify on the first point, releasing customer information is something that cannot be done indiscretionately. To clarify on the final point, the disclosure of ongoing business talks is not something I can imagine any business disclosing in full. The managing director can decide whether or not what they wish to disclose. Title: Re: crypto.pm | an upcoming cryptocurrency exchange Post by: Lemon on May 01, 2013, 09:10:12 AM To clarify in case there is some confusion. I am not the managing director or business owner (as can be found listed on public records). I am the platform architect, and I guess - the face of the community (for now).
I do not have the authority to disclose any potentially sensitive information (and have provided the direct address of the MD to the above poster). In regards to a completely different business that I am involved with (and have an ownership stake in), there's honestly not a chance in hell that I can disclose customer information. I can potentially request from a few of the customers I know closely that they confirm, but please email in order to chase that up. They are entirely separate businesses. Edit: A device is being shipped to an OTC moderator. Edit 2: I'm also meeting one of the OTC moderators for lunch on Monday, and will be happy to further discuss this with him.

There's one exception; specifically, I'd be interested to see an answer to:
Quote Please state your exact qualification in law, the certifying body, and where we can find a certificate. I'd like to break it down a little. It's all really part of the same question, but I'd like to be sure specific parts are asked:
I'm making no assertions or claims about you here, and I'm certainly not asserting or claiming that you're not a lawyer or not a solicitor; I'm just asking questions. In the UK, for the protection of consumers, "solicitor" is a protected title. Anyone using that term first needs to be granted a Practising Certificate; to make that claim or use that title in the UK without such a certificate is a criminal offence in its own right (http://www.sra.org.uk/bogus-solicitors/). Such certificates are a matter of public record for the protection of consumers. There is one exception: from the page linked above: "the only genuine ones not on there are those who have requested their removal from the database". Please be clear about whether this applies to you, and if so we can cross that bridge next. In the UK at least, this is not a question on which people are allowed to be cagey or unclear. I'm not implying any right on my part to obtain an answer to this on an Internet forum; just saying that the entire UK can be partitioned into two non-overlapping sets: those who legally have to say they're not a solicitor when asked, and those who legally have to say they are when asked, for whom it's easily verified with public records.

As per previous conversation with you, you are more than welcome to email me with any questions; as opposed to derailing an ongoing /development/ thread. I will answer though, I am not currently a UK solicitor and have not misrepresented myself as such. I refer to myself as a lawyer as I am legally entitled to do in this country. To clarify, I am not in breach of sections 20 through 23 of The Solicitors Act (1974). I have the education and training that entitles me to refer to myself as a lawyer, but generally anybody who works in law has such an entitlement. I have not gone around saying, "hi, i'm a solicitor" or carried out reserved work which I am currently not authorised to. I am not being cagey or unclear about this. You are welcome to email me in regards to any other questions regarding my personal background (including previous legal background and education). This offer also applies to any other interested parties. If you have any questions in regards to platform development, then I will happily respond here. We are building a solid platform and will continue to do so; but please direct questions regarding the personal backgrounds of staff through the appropriate channels in future. Title: Re: crypto.pm | an upcoming cryptocurrency exchange Post by: iwilcox on May 02, 2013, 01:08:06 PM For avoidance of doubt, questions posed and opinions expressed here and in my past and any future posts on this thread are my own, and do not necessarily represent those of any other person or group of people. I certainly do not claim to represent any of the ops on any of the Bitcoin IRC channels on Freenode except myself.
As per previous conversation with you, you are more than welcome to email me with any questions; [...] please direct questions regarding the personal backgrounds of staff through the appropriate channels in future. Personally, I do not find the answers given thus far to form a satisfactory answer to the questions posed. If you choose not to provide further elaboration here, so be it, but I will not be using e-mail for this enquiry; I respectfully decline your invitation to take the questions to a medium in which the content, and the absence of a reply by either party, couldn't be independently verified by others. Since you've invited me on IRC to "post a summary of the conversations" anyway if one were to be held by e-mail, I don't understand your reluctance to address it here. It'd only take one post to answer the questions to a level that would satisfy anyone interested, presently or in future. You could even edit the one you already made to save on post-noise. Observation: There's a good reason people often qualify what they say with "I Am Not a Lawyer" on the Internet, and it's not hard to see why someone would be reluctant to be seen as one even if they were paralegals or did any other legal work. You don't seem to share that reluctance, in my opinion. People who are qualified are usually, understandably, quite proud and open about the fact that they are qualified, and how they came to be qualified. I'm neither inferring nor implying that you're therefore not qualified; merely observing that your reaction to this line of enquiry seems uncharacteristic of those qualified people I've known. To stray a little from the specifics of the question, so that it's clear why I ask at all, and why I ask here: reputation in the Bitcoin world has historically been earned and justified in the open[1]. Some who might work with you, invest in you or entrust money to your escrow service or completed exchange might require more reputation than you have yet earned in the ~18 days you've been here (as of this posting). Therefore it might be to your (business's) benefit to provide more evidence of what reputation you've earned prior to your Bitcoin involvement, or under what other names you've participated in the Bitcoin community previously if you have. As I'm sure you'll point out, those who might work with you/entrust money to you are free to take you or leave you, but you might encourage more to take you by making at least some of your previous successful accomplishments, qualifications, business relationships, and your identity, more open. You're doubtless aware that you're entering a market in which ~45% of entrants have so far failed (http://lyle.smu.edu/~tylerm/fc13.pdf)[2], and therefore of how important this stuff is to your potential customers. ... as opposed to derailing an ongoing /development/ thread. It's true that this thread is posted under "Project Development", but you seem happy to "derail" it yourself to reply to other non-development questions, including:
[1] I'm not claiming to have any substantial reputation in the community myself in the mere ~69 days I've been interested in Bitcoin, but then I'm also not asking anyone in that community to trust me with their money, save for isolated individual counterparties in the minimal number of OTC (http://bitcoin-otc.com/viewratingdetail.php?nick=iwilcox) and escrowed BitBargain (https://bitbargain.co.uk/profile/iwilcox) trades I've participated in. [2] I've not checked whether that paper includes Bitfloor, Bitcoin-24 and Bitcoin Central, none of which are currently executing trades, so the 45% figure may be out of date already. Title: Re: crypto.pm | an upcoming cryptocurrency exchange Post by: Lemon on May 02, 2013, 02:08:44 PM On my phone so will only post briefly for the moment. I will take what you have said under consideration and decide what to do next. Please understand though, neither I; nor many businesses - would seek to do this in a public forum. My educational and training history is something I consider to be irrelevant. In terms of past (and active) projects and employers? That is something I'd be happy to post on the site. Business relationships though? I would not expect any business to say we are doing business with x and y whilst things are on going. Once we have assured long term partnerships? Sure.
I am very disenfranchised with the legal system in the UK, this is something I have tried to make clear. We were intending to build trust over time due to our lengthy launch time frame. The escrow service itself is designed for small amounts and is something put together to build trust. It is where we decided to start. Most new businesses fail, if anything - bitcoin has a higher success rate based on those figures. Quote yet confusingly you also say that "Having a lawyer on the team has allowed us to avoid those pesky legal fees") This is not in regards to KYC or AML. General enquiries, liability checks, etc is what it is referring to. Apologies for any confusion. Title: Re: crypto.pm | an upcoming cryptocurrency exchange Post by: iwilcox on May 06, 2013, 09:45:38 PM Edit: A device is being shipped to an OTC moderator. It might help to say which OTC moderator. Edit 2: I'm also meeting one of the OTC moderators for lunch on Monday, and will be happy to further discuss this with him. For the record, we did not meet today (Monday). Lemon indicated on Sunday night that he wasn't sure he could make it, but that he would let me know as early as possible on Monday. alaricsp and I were planning to meet anyway as we had an outstanding GPG keysigning geek-date, and Bath is lovely in the sunshine, especially with ice cream :) I hadn't heard from Lemon by 11:30 Monday and he wasn't on IRC so I e-mailed him letting him know how to contact me to find us in Bath. I next heard from Lemon at 20:30 Monday by e-mail, by which point alaricsp and I had both left Bath; he explained why he couldn't meet during Monday day and offered other times when he'd likely next be available to meet (right then --- Monday evening --- or towards the end of the week). I won't be taking him up on those offers. Title: Re: crypto.pm | an upcoming cryptocurrency exchange Post by: Lemon on May 06, 2013, 09:51:08 PM Quote It might help to say which OTC moderator. That would be a5m0, as well as yourself. So, two actually. Quote For the record, we did not meet today (Monday).

This is indeed correct. I moved on Saturday (to a lovely place in Bath) and am still not done with the unpacking. I have far too many courier deliveries tomorrow (as well as a BT engineer and somebody to replace a window); beyond that, a family member showed up today (with their son in tow) and I ended up having to play tour guide. For the record, I don't know Bath very well. Checking IRC completely slipped my mind, and only the ( hello@citrus.pw ) address goes to my new phone (I've only just upgraded). When I got home, I checked my email - saw one from you sent at around 1130'ish, and immediately responded. I can only apologize for not checking sooner, but with the move, the visit - and the lovely weather, it completely evaded my mind to be honest. I'd still like to meet at some point, I can either come to you - or vice versa. As per above, you have my schedule for the next week... it's a it hectic. Again, I do apologize for not responding sooner! Title: Re: crypto.pm | an upcoming cryptocurrency exchange Post by: iwilcox on May 07, 2013, 11:15:43 AM It might help to say which OTC moderator.

You are also welcome to contact the managing director of Cryptography LTD (who is not me) via hello@citrus.pw [...] Checking IRC completely slipped my mind, and only the ( hello@citrus.pw ) address goes to my new phone (I've only just upgraded). Now you've got me slightly confused. For the record, is hello@citrus.pw read by you, the MD, or both? (To make things clear for readers: I e-mailed Lemon 'To' me@lemon.sx as published on his OTC GPG key and 'CC' ryan@citrus.pw which he gave out publicly on IRC as the contact e-mail for begging for nuPlay prototypes as freebies.) Title: Re: crypto.pm | an upcoming cryptocurrency exchange Post by: iwilcox on May 07, 2013, 11:27:57 AM Oh, and for what it's worth: I find Lemon's explanation for why he couldn't make it to meet up in Bath perfectly plausible.

Title: Re: crypto.pm | an upcoming cryptocurrency exchange Post by: 🏰 TradeFortress 🏰 on October 16, 2014, 12:35:43 PM Lemon, aka Ryan Kennedy, Ryan Francis Gentle, Alex Green, has been exposed.
https://docs.google.com/document/d/10JYJZ8-e_0SIXsDz_b2MYJxq8fVZ37PsOK689e4Bnng/pub Quote After receiving several emails from concerned parties, including former employees, it’s come to light that “Alex Green”, CEO of Moolah appears to be well known internet scammer “Ryan Kennedy”, also known as “Ryan Humble,” “Ryan Gentle,” and many other pseudonyms. A simple Google search will lead you down the path of abuse, fraud and destruction he leaves in his wake. From the information provided, it is clear that the many people affiliated with this individual were not aware of who they were dealing with. The employees of Moolah, Mintpal, and Dogecoin / SysCoin communities were led to believe this individual was named “Alex Green” and were not aware of his history when doing business with him. It is not believed they were part of any fraudulent or suspicious activity. This all started after we received an email from an anonymous email address which read: Clickable links from above email: A detailed recounting of 10 years of Ryan’s activities can be found at https://encyclopediadramatica.es/Senshimedia (Cached) https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=306947.0 http://stopryan.blogspot.co.uk/2006/12/know-ryan-gentle.html An image taken from the link above (many look different, as he was younger): The initial email was shortly followed by another: This may remind you of someone from an infamous Skype chat recording: Going one step further and searching by the @ryantehninja alias: Moolah.io was not the first time that Ryan raised Bitcoins for a cryptocurrency project and then failed to follow through. In April of 2013 he announced the formation of Crypto.pm. The website’s design and investment offering are essentially identical to the Moolah PIE investment offering: https://web.archive.org/web/20130501045223/https://crypto.pm/invest. He claimed to have suffered a heart attack and received death threats, similar to the serious health problems and death threats Alex Green claimed to have experienced, and then disappeared. According to comments in a scam accusation thread on Bitcointalk, he was accused of taking over 500 BTC: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=176756.0;all Shortly thereafter, the anonymous contact sent what is ultimately the final nail in the coffin in determining that who we know as “Alex Green” is not who they say they are. This image has been confirmed by several individuals who have met “Alex” in person.
