Thank you SAC - please use at least one symbol, and an upper and lower case letter as well and it should process well. We will correct that error message, thanks!

Is cryptoxchange under a DDOS attack? It isn't loading for me.

Hi,

SAC, you are right, if there are any page response issues, you may need to just refresh. There are constant updates being applied in which may just require a refresh of the page at the moment. It won't affect your trading at all, we are just perfecting everything, and working around the clock.

If anyone has any suggestions or ideas with any changes, bugs or anything, feel free to email contact@cryptoxchange.com

Thank you very much for trying our system!

Regards

The Crypto X Team.

It's fun buying 10,000 bitcoins under $2.50, even if they're fake. Having all this money just created out of nowhere makes me feel like I live in America.
