Infrastructure information
The exchange does not come with any debts and the new owner would have a clean slate in how they want to run the system. The system is currently running on a Single Dedicated server, with the following Specs: Intel Core i7 2.80GHz, 16GB Ram, 2TB HDD. This is costing about $40 a month to run.

The website is independent from the backend trading system, which means these can be run on different servers to reduce the load.
 
Presented opportunity
The exchange is fully functional, and a constantly evolving work. There are some parts of the system that the new owner may desire to put extra development into, such as the existing Administration panel. The trade engine has been designed using Python and is interfaced with via a websocket which clients connect to from our trade/markets page.  

The website is currently not turning over enough to pay for the servers that we are using, we have made about 0.1BTC including the coin voting in the first week. With intelligent marketing and promotion, this exchange has a high potential to be more successful. ICURREX has already received a positive reception amongst the cryptocurrency community, gaining significant goodwill. In addition the United States and Europe, many of our traders are located in Southeast Asia. A significant portion of users are located in Japan and Korea, for both of which we have a full and professional translation.
 
Reason for selling
We have been building and designing the website and technologies behind ICURREX for just over 6 months. However, the costs involved in building and launching the website have went far over budget and we are now unable to finance the system.

The website at present needs a new owner who has some development knowledge (or has a development team) and ideas to make the website thrive.
 
Sale specifics
We would be looking to sell for around 13BTC O.N.O.

We have arranged to pay our IPO holders (3.6 BTC) off prior to you taking ownership, although we would accept lower offers if the IPO is sold to the new owner.

We must sell the full exchange, with all the software, this means you will be in 100% control of all the software, servers and users.

We will help to migrate the system to your new servers and make sure everything is running for you. Once the system has been moved to your servers and you are in control of the domain names and you will be in full control of the system.

I am happy to speak to anyone directly on Skype, if you send me your user id I will add you.
Finally, if you have any questions, please feel free to contact me on PM.

1) How many active users are using your exchange?
2) What security measures are in place?
3) What platform is the exchange written on?

You are aware there is another exchange similar to yours for sale, that has nearly 2x the registered users and they are asking 10BTC?

Hi,
I noticed this, please PM your username and i will activate. It was due to postfix freezing.

1) We are getting around 100-200 sessions a day, without marketing.
2) We have implemented as much security as we can, such as SQL Injection, CSRF etc.
3) The entire website and backend is written in python
