Title: Wex.nz situation
Post by: OmegaStarScream on January 04, 2019, 09:02:30 AM
I've just noticed that Wex.nz (BTC-E) is no longer working and from googling, it seems like they lost the .nz domain.

Does anyone have an idea of what happened to the user's funds and whether they are planning to come back or not? I've seen that they have posted new domain's in their Twitter but none of them is working now.

Just want to post this thread about that exchange mentioned above https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5092631.0 though never tried to use them or what, clearly I will stay away with that exchange for goodness sake.

they had their .nz domain yanked due to fraudulent registration in late november. soon after, they tried to relaunch at wex.link, wex.fit, and wex1.in, but each time the domain was quickly taken down after being reported for fraud.

it seems like it's almost time to close the book on this. there's been radio silence for a month now---nothing on their twitter. and for several months prior, most assets (coins or fiat) couldn't be withdrawn anyway. most people are giving up at this point.

I'm interested in knowing how the website looks exactly the same though? Did you manage to get their source code (including the backend)?

What expertise do you have as well? If you're just former users of BTC-E that doesn't mean much for the average user, people want a professional team.

We are independent IT specialists, we do our own cryptocurrency exchange. We have not received source code, or anything from btc-e/wex. We do write our own backend for the exchange.
About expertise: as we are a group of IT specialists: programming,db-management, security, payment proccessing etc. are not problems for us. Each day we get dDoS attacks, hacker attempts etc. and we successfully mitigate them. As we grow up, each week we do security analyze, and take backups everyday. We understand that owners of btc-e/wex will (or already doing) try to hack or find any security flaws in our systems. but we believe in our professionality and we are ready defend our project.

good for you. Make your own god damn design and think of your own name instead of ripping btc-e/wex when you are so smart you half-retards.

You don't like this design. This is good for you. don't use nowex - we will be happy. because, nowex.nz is for people who loved that design.
