Title: Gemini.com Exchange - Sign up for early access on their website
Post by: g27wr on March 21, 2015, 07:28:21 PM
If this is already on the board, my apologies, but I could not find this...

I just did a Google search for 'bitcoin exchange' and saw a sponsored ad for Gemini.com

Sure enough, the site gemini.com (http://gemini.com) is live and accepting invites for early access.

Thanks for sharing.

I submitted my email, but I'm guessing it will be for US customers only (at least at the start).

They only work with US banks:

Gemini operates fully in the United States. We work exclusively with American banks; your dollars never leave the country.

So there is no change I can used them in the future. I would use them if they allow me to, I have more trust in them than other exchanges. Less chance for them to run off with our coins and claim they are hacked.

i think so that is not listed on the board because that is in beta launch mode and accepting early access,
that is nice sharing buddy looking nice exchange U.S. based.

As far as I can see not much has changed in the time they launched the site.

It only says 'Get Early Access' which it has been saying for quite a while now.

So basically nothing has changed from what I can see. They haven't been tweeting about Gemini for quite a while now.

Unless they put a hefty escrow deposit with a third party to cover customer deposits, I would stay clear away from new exchanges.

There have actually been a large number of shill accounts going around saying they just used various scam exchanges, or recommending scam exchanges, or otherwise advertising scam exchanges, or that they will use a scam exchange instead of dealing with someone in the currency exchange section.

They have generally be newbie accounts, although I would not doubt that the OP is a shill for Gemini.com and that there will eventually be scam reports about them

Gemini.com is Winklevoss twins project (an addition to their ETF plans). There was a wide media coverage about that. It's suppose to be fully regulated etc, so don't think running away with the money (aka 'getting hacked') is an option for them.
