Bitcoin Forum

Hey guys - wanted to post a quick announcement about a new CC exchange coming on board soon. Myself and some colleagues were unhappy with the current state of exchanges. Some too slow. Some unwilling to adopt fringe coins. Some with terrible support. Some who manipulate the market.

So we thought we can do better.

A basic info site is up right now, with a form to subscribe to updates, and offer suggestions. We want this to be YOUR cryptocurrency exchange. We want your ideas, your input. Swing by, give it a look and let us know what you think.

Some features that we hope will both differentiate us from the current lot of exchanges, as well as make us your exchange of choice:

• We will try to have lower fees, but still stay viable. We cannot run the site for free. Hosting, network speed, DDoS protection, security, support staff, they all cost money. Lots of it. The plus side is we hope to do it right.
• We want your ideas. Frustrated that yourcurrentexchange.com does not do X, Y or Z? Let us know. If it's feasible, we want to implement it.
• We want to add those fringe coins that you want to be able to trade, but no one lists. We're big into altcoins. The intro site accepts development donations in BTC, LTC, DOGE, MOON, TIPS, and LOT. We had to draw the line somewhere - those are the ones we actively use ourselves ;)
  
• A great feature we are very proud of - when you sign up, you designate a charity that accepts cryptocurrency. A percentage of all fees you pay for your trades will be donated to your charity of choice. This serves two purposes. First and foremost - it helps those in need. Second - it helps spread the word about cryptocurrency. Maybe your local school or church has no idea what bitcoin is? Talk them into setting up an account on bitpay. Get us their contact information, we'll get hooked up with them and add them to the site. And they will get a percentage of your trades. Everyone wins. We are currently in talks with a few charities. Once we get them on board, they will be added to the site. Oh, and yes, we promise 100% transparency with the charitible contributions. All contributions will be posted on a public page with links to the blockchain.info transactions. (And yes, all donations will be first converted to BTC before being donated. Your local homeless shelter likely has no need for a percentage of your PotCoin trade!)
  
• We are exploring the possibility of a founders group. The first beta users, the ones that champion us into the mainstream, having special 'shareholder' accounts which receive a percentage of all trades on the site. Get in early. Secure your spot.
  

That's just the beginning. Come sign up. Give us your suggestions. Development is active and ongoing. No, we do not have a launch date. Soon. That's all we know. We secured the domain yesterday. We finished the submission and subscription form just an hour ago. We're very excited about this. We hope you are too.

YOUR Cryptocurrency Exchange

Looks promising and we really need a more user-friendly exchange where there is actual support and admin's taking care of issues, it has been a big problem as of late on various exchanges. Will follow this development! :) Also more information on first adoption and the shareholder IPO's? I would be interested in joining.

Very good looking!  ;)

Here's a question for you all, and something we've been debating.

I am the primary developer. I have a few others working on the code as well. All of us are developers. We code. We do databases.

Not a single one of us has one shred of artistic ability, and we are more concerned with a great, speedy, and working backend. That's what we do well.

Craigslist is an extremely simple site. Nothing flashy. Was written in someone's basement (thats a guess - don't quote me!) and still looks basic.

Would that be a turnoff to you using it as an exchange? Human psychology has this thing with flash website = affluence and money and you have a tendency to trust it more.

We could absolutely spend $15,000 to hire a firm to make it pretty. But that seems so... counter-intuitive to what we're trying to do.

Would you trust an exchange that looked closer to craigslist than it was to cryptsy? If not, what would make you trust it more?

We want to go live as soon as possible. Adding glitz and graphics will just slow down the launch, and slow down the page loads. Not knocking coinex.pw - we love that site. But the longer you leave the page open the more memory it uses and slower it goes, until you restart the browser.

We want to be slim, fast, and efficient. But not at the cost of trust.

The appearance is fundamental to an exchange site.
You must not forget that people will let you their money.
A site that looks old or ugly does not attract confience.
You have to be light and clear.
But do not overlook the apparence.

(Sorry for my bad english)

I am extremely excited over the prospect of this new exchange. I had the opportunity to meet the developer today and have a brief talk with him. From our conversation I gathered that he has a fundamental understanding of what an exchange should and should not be, as well as understanding the community involved with cryptocurrencies. I encourage everyone who has interest in this project to communicate with the developers, they have a genuine interest in correcting some of the flaws with the current exchanges available which is something that I appreciate.

My two cents: beyond ensuring that the design is fluid and functional, and looks professional, the appearance of the site should take a back seat. More important are accessible & responsive support, and a strong ethos. Most important of all the site has to work really well, and it has to do it fast.

If the site launched tomorrow looking like craigslist but working well I would jump right on it. If the site launched tomorrow looking gorgeous, but operating no better than any other exchange, I wouldn't be so keen.

As for delaying launch to improve design... When you look back in a year or two's time what difference will a month's delay have made? Then again, waiting sucks. Hard.

Regarding the effect of design on user trust, I don't think it's a big deal. There are some really ugly exchanges out there, including some fairly big ones. Bitcoin/cryptos have a strong community behind them and involved with them; word of mouth will absolutely win out over aesthetics.

Design is important, and great design would be great, but I would think it is far from the most pressing concern.

For me... I would like to see clear rules as to why you DO or DONT add a coin to your site.

Cryptsy just adds random shit, they have polls and votes and all that crap... and none of it is followed.
They add completely new copycoins, yet ignore others that seem to have community support...

So all i want to see is nice clear rules as to what a coin needs to do to get onto your site.
If a coin is rejected, nice clear reasons why.
If a coin is close to being listed... then an explanation of what needs to happen to see the coin listed.

I honestly dont give a fuck in regards to Transaction fees or any of that shit.
All I want to see is Transparency regarding why a Coin is added or not added.

This is our plan as to how coins get added. And we'd like feedback on this process.

The plan, as it stands now on the whiteboard in the room, is that at launch, we will add as many "common" coins as possible. A lot of the ones that trade highest in volume. Enough coins so that when we launch, people won't come by, see we dont have crap, and quit. But the more we add, the more launch is delayed.

So once we launch, we will have a section where ANYONE can add a coin to the "add me" list. No criteria necessary.

Then there will be a page that lists all the potential coins. Users can upvote coins, just like a post can be upvoted on reddit. No downvoting - we don't want all the BlahCoin people trashing the YaddaCoin people and vice versa.

We are also considering adding a feature where you can donate BTC for additional votes. BTC because if we dont have the coin added yet we obviously cannot accept that coin. And there's been arguing in the office whether thats kosher or not. I was told "Thats bullshit - pay to get your favorite coin added?" - but fact of the matter is - this is a part time gig for all of us. We ALL have other jobs. None of us can afford to quit and do this full time. So if we make a little extra, it helps justify the extra time necessary for that kind of infrastructure. Anyway, I'm digressing. (And a portion of those donations will also go to charity)

So you can upvote coins and see the ranking in real time. Possibly also donate to get a better "pole position" as it were.

Then, on a schedule purely determined by when we have time, without a countdown or any other indication, we will take the top coin, and add it. Some days we may add three coins. One. None. None for a few days if we're busy with kids and work and wives. Then 6 on one day if we have the time.

Adding coins takes time. Databases need to be updated. Software needs to be installed and blockchains downloaded. Testing needs to be done (You don't want us to add BlingCoin, you start trading, then all your coin disappears because of a glitch we didnt catch). Adding a coin isnt a simple as flipping a switch.

So - thats the whiteboard plan. It seems to be the most fair. Coins with the most support get added first. Does it suck that a poorly supported coin thats been on the list for 3 months doesnt get added, because a new coin pops up and is turbo popular?

Yes, that sucks.

But if that coin has so little support to be added, it's not going to be traded. We want to add the coins YOU want to trade. So, if YOU upvote them, we feel thats the best indicator of what should be added next.

No +1's posted in forums, no nebulous 'whats on the list' - there will be a page. All coins listed. Click the up arrow (or whatever), donate to the listed address, and the list updates in real time (well, with a page refresh most likely). When we have the time to add it, we grab the top coin and do it.

Top be clear about the donations. They will absolutely NOT be necessary. You get enough votes, you're on the top. 100 coins could be added without ever having to donate a thing.

There's no reason to not have EVERY coin on the site. Except for time. Time to add it, time to download the software and blockchain. Time to test. Thats the only limiting factor.

The one thing I want to say is the ONLY coins we will NOT EVER add are coins with legal complications. I'm not touching Coinye. I've no interest in dealing with cease and desist letters. The Coinye people pulled a dick move releasing early to avoid the legal shit, pissing off Kanye, and we dont have the money to fight him, regardless of if he's right or wrong.

If some moron releases a PedoCoin, we're not touching it. Thats not even remotely funny.

PotCoin? Absolutely. We don't care what you do with your coins. Legal or not. But there's nothing illegal about trading PotCoins.

We as a team have various standards. We reserve the right to refuse any coin, but will ONLY do so under very specific circumstances. As stated, if it will get us sued, we're not listing it. If its morally offensive, we won't list it. Some jackass makes AbortionCoin? Yeah, not on our exchange. We don't care what YOUR view on it is, we don't think thats funny.

So all that being said, the ONLY coin that we're currently aware of that would not be listed is Coinye, until the time Kanye gives up and stops trying to sue people. The letters stop coming out, his legal team stops harassing people - then we'll add it. Other than that, we're aware of no other coin we'd be against.

As a side note, while I'm here, we're also big fans of privacy. A few of us are Libertarians, and we all believe in privacy and personal freedoms.

We decided this morning to have an anonymous account feature. We wont ask for your email and we won't log your IP address. The caveat is you will be forced to use Google Authenticator 2FA, and you digitally sign a waiver that if you lose your account, forget your password, etc, too bad. If you want to be anonymous, then we cannot verify you. You lose your password, you get hacked, thats the risk you took by being anonymous.

But, that being said, we won't track anything. Of course all trades will be tracked, but there will be nothing linking you to them.

We feel that is a right you should have. Freedom to trade without being watched.

We are also considering offering a tumbling service. Since we will be holding a large pool of coins on people's behalf, it only makes sense to offer an anonymous tumbling service as well. But thats for later.

Oh, and I forgot to mention this in the OP - We're hoping to be able the offer the ability to do short sales. Thats complicated. We need to be sure we can do it safely, but it's on the to-do list.

For those who arent aware what a short sale is, it offers the ability to profit from a falling stock/market/coin. You basically "borrow" say 2 coins from someone else. You sell them. Then at a later time you buy them back at a lower price. Give the 2 coins back. The person you borrowed from has no net effect positive or negative, but you enjoy the gains from the Sell high, buy low.

It's a complicated issue. But it's on the planning block.

Can't wait to see more.

No input whatsoever on any of those ideas?

So I'm going to do a shameless bump here, but, at a minimum, I'll give some news to make it not so horrible.

Just wanted to update that we've had some fantastic feedback through the web form so far, but not much here on the thread. I'm kind of surprised. I figured at the very least we'd have some people bitching about SOMETHING. Come on folks, why is no one telling us we're doing it wrong?
 
Progress on the site is moving along quickly. I personally spent all day today coding, and am heading back to the office bright and early tomorrow to keep chugging along. We expect the basic framework to be done in a few days.

We've been brainstorming ideas on ways to make us different. Here are some options we've come up with. Any input is appreciated.

On traditional exchanges, you place an order, and you get in the back of the line. We're considering a system we call a "Priority Order" - you pay a premium in exchange fees, but instead of going to the back of the line, you butt in front. Think of it as Disney's Fastpass.

Others can butt in front of you - simply cancel your order and re-place yours. It rewards active trading. You're there, at the console, and can make sure your order sells before that 45 BTC sell wall does. We think it's a great idea.

Another idea we're implementing is called a chase order.

We've been in the scenario where we place a sell order for a coin, only to see it go up, the coin sells, and we could have made more. We are investigating a way to detect coin movement, and you can place a chase order. Your order goes to the back of the line - and if the system detects rapid movement, it will auto-adjust your sell (or buy) order to chase the movement, only executing once the trend settles or reverses. Say for instance you're selling a coin at 15 satoshi. It quickly hits 14, then moves to 15... before yours sells, it auto-adjusts to 16. If the 16 is powered through quickly, it moves to 17. But 17 sells slow... or not at all. Your order auto adjusts back to 16, and you sell at 16 instead of the original 15 you had listed. This is a VERY complicated system and may not go live, as there are tons of possible problems with it, but it's an idea we had for a premium feature.

If anyone has other ideas for great features, we'd love to hear them.

Idea 1:
I want a "Vault" for my coins. Sometimes i buy so-and-so-many coines and later I'll sell them. And sometimes i KEEP some of the coins. I want to be able to "store" those coins in a "Vault". This "Vault" does not need to be more, then a Area where i but coins, that do now show up on my sellable coins. Something happens to me all the time: Say I have 1000 Dogecoins because I want to keep them longterm. But then I see that Dogecoin is cheap and buy 4000. Dogecoin is going up and 15 Points up I sell all my Dogecoins... DAMNIT - Did I sell ALL my Dogecoins? I wanted to KEEP 1000 ffs! I dont want to have to remember that. I want to be able to store away Coins in my account on the Exchange.

Idea 2:
Stop-Orders.
I bought Doge at 170 - Now I want to be able to enter  - for example - 160. If the price goes down to 160 the Exchange automatically sells my Coins. This way I can keep Coins over night and dont have to worry about losing 90 % because the fing Coins are so jumpy.

Simple enough to add. I'll add that to the to-do list. My only concern with that is it's generally good practice to NOT store your coins on an exchange for any length of time. Would anyone else be interested in this feature? A way to 'protect' a portion of your coins from being traded?


I was about to say you can already do that - however if on standard exchanges you say to sell at 160, and the current price is 170, they will INSTANTLY sell since you're offering them below market value.

But if you set a trigger to sell IF it drops, then it will only list if the price does drop to 160. I see. Sounds like a great feature and one we will add without further discussion. I'm actually working on the market page right now and know just where to add it.

Would be great if Feathercoin would be traded on Allcrypt.com

Soon we will be finishing up our coin voting page, and we will be making that page public. Using that will we be deciding WHICH coins will be on the site when we go live.

Stay posted for more info.

An open list of coins which users vote up is great, I agree that downvotes are unnecessary - adding a coin which I dislike to the exchange isn't going to negatively impact me, why should I be able to vote against it, right? Paying to get your favourite coin added, I don't like. I don't see a valid correlation between 'a good coin' and 'wealthier supporters of a coin'. Additionally, I think the community ethos is one of the best things you guys have going for you, and pay-to-win doesn't sit well with that. You say paid votes will not be necessary but that is going to depend on the ratio of paid & unpaid votes, and the rate at which you can add coins. Of course, I understand that traders with more coins to trade also have more coins to vote with. Paying to get a coin listed might well maximise trading volume fastest, but for my part, I would rather use a different exchange for a particular coin than pay to have it listed on AllCrypt.

If you are seeking funding through paid votes, I would suggest that there are much better, friendlier, ways to go about that. I would rather donate to the exchange directly than pay to have a coin listed.

Coins with legal issues, or those which are otherwise unsafe for the exchange must of course be ruled out. I find it extremely odd, contradictory even, to state that you don't care what people do with their coins "Legal or not" and then go on to say you will ban coins based on their name. Worse than that, based on whether the coin's name intersects with your personal ideas regarding what's morally offensive, regardless of the community's interests. Not that I am a fan of PedoCoin, it's more of a "disagree, but defend your right" thing. In addition, if a coin is created which has some kind of  superiority (technical or otherwise) to other coins, I will care not a jot about the name of the coin.

Anonymous trading. Fantastic. It should be an option on every exchange, and will definitely set AllCrypt apart. Tumbling makes a lot of sense once you have sufficient volume. Shorting is a very interesting idea and I would like to hear more details at some stage. Would the shorted coins be borrowed from other users who want a lower risk way to earn "interest" on their cryptos?

Priority orders seem a bit silly. Correct me if I am being dense - it is late and past my bedtime - but instead of paying a premium for the order to jump the queue, couldn't I just sell at a slightly lower price (or buy higher)? Either way I make a little less profit, but the order gets fulfilled sooner.

Chase orders are a new one on me. What would happen to the market in the case that 50% or 75% or 90% of all the orders on the exchange were chase orders? I can't quite get my head around the idea right now. Interesting though.

No offense intended to you Chellger - you should trade as you see fit. Personally, I have vaults for my coins. They come in *-qt form, and they are more secure than any exchange will be. Encouraging long term storage of coins on an exchange is a bad idea, and a waste of dev's time.

Chellger, you could always just open an order to sell you 1000DOGE at 10BTC each. It will never be fulfilled, and you won't be able to trade the coins. Of course, I would still advise you to store your coins in a local wallet, for your own security. After all, for all we know we will deposit our many cryptocoins in AllCrypt only to have it hacked, or the devs steal everything and go on holiday! (I am not positing that as a likely situation).

No feature suggestions at the moment I'm afraid, I guess I'm better at criticizing other people's ideas than coming up with my own.

Wanted to take a moment to reply before getting back to work. We're hoping to launch the coin voting system tonight or tomorrow!


We realize that the paid votes would possibly raise some eyebrows. Fact is, we're running this aspect of the site like life in general. You could come to the site every day, and keep clicking. Or you could realize your time is much more valuable, and donate $10 in BTC and you're covered. I used to change my own oil to save the $30. Now, I'm too damn busy. I just pay the money and I have more time for other things. Like coding an exchange.

We also wanted to give a small coin, that no one cares about, a chance to get on the list. Maybe the dev of the coin wants to spend $500 to get it listed, because his coin sucks and no one cares, but he thinks if he gets it on the exchange, it'll help. Do you REALLY care? Honestly - he spends $500, we donate $100 of it to charity (yes, we are donating 20% of all 'bribes' to charity), and his coin lands on the exchange and withers and dies.

At the end of the day, to be completely honest, I dont think we'll see much BTC in coin listing bribes.

And, at LEAST we're being transparent about it. We admit, up front, we take money to list coins. But the power of your fans, and their votes, will by far outweigh what little we see in coin listing fees. And, yeah, 20% goes to charity.


Here's the deal with that. We as society decide what is morally offensive and wrong. 99% of us agree that NGR (NiggerCoin) and NZI (NaziCoin) are absurdly offensive. More than 1% of us would trade it either because we're screwed up in the head, or think it's funny, or actually believe in it. That doesnt mean it should be on our exchange.

Same with PedoCoin. You state that you disagree but defend their right. No, sorry, I draw the line there. You can call a coin whatever you want, but when it's THAT offensive to THAT many people, then it's not being listed on our exchange.

I dont smoke but I will fight to defend your right to do so.

PedoCoin? No. You're not funny.

ANY coin named after something so patently offensive exists only to shock and offend, and has no right on AllCrypt.com.


Yes, shorted coins are "borrowed" - just like in shorting stocks. Shorting will be limited to a small percentage of the coin we hold (if we have 1,000,000 DOGE on hand, we will limit shorting doge to 100,000 or 200,000, to avoid the issue of a mass withdrawal, but your coins were sold by someone else who hasn't bought them back yet)

Exact numbers are being discussed.


Thats fine if the buy or sell walls are thin... but what happens when every number from 20 to 40 satoshi is loaded down with 80-90 BTC of orders?

Yes, you could sell your 5,000,000 MOON at 19 for .95 BTC, or "prioritize" the sale at 20 for 1 BTC. Thats a 5% difference in income. The extra fee for a priority transaction, right NOW (subject to change), is .5%. Prioritize at 20, or sell at 19? You get 4.995 more BTC with a priority sale.

Another issue would be say the market is dropping like a rock. EVERYONE is selling. You want out before it crashes rock bottom. Do you keep posting sell orders on the tail end of everyone else's order? Or prioritize it, and sell NOW?

Food for thought.



If we have time and there's interest from more than 1 person, we'll add it, but I reiterate: Storing your coins on an exchange is a bad idea. People like to hack exchanges. We typically hold a ton of coins for people.

Ok can you add tea coin
Please

Symbol TEA I assume?

Ok, just added it to the voting.

Any other coins anyone wants added to the voting, please email me. Email link is on www.AllCrypt.com

I dont want to clutter the thread with coin requests.

The beginning of the thread talked about design. I can forgive a poor design in the beginning. Poor coding not as much.

You compared Craigslist and Cryptsy. Craigslist is a functional, simple design. Cryptsy is somewhat functional, cluttered design. Cryptsy is broken a lot more often my area's Craigslist.

Just a quick thought: could you implement 'vaults' like separate Web wallets? Such that if the exchange were compromised, or down for any reason users could still access those wallets independently?

Well funny thing is we threw that minimalist design out the window on the first day we started to actually code it. Given layout and functionality, we'd actually have to work harder to make it minimalist like that. Given how easy CSS is, the site looks pretty spiffy, and has some pretty amazing features already. I'll try and post an in-development screenshot a little later today.

But regarding your comments on Cryptsy. What makes it cluttered? What specifically about Cryptsy's design do you not like. Id like specific answers... "its cluttered and hard to use" doesnt help US design AllCrypt to avoid that. Truth is, we've copied a lot of cool features we've seen on various sites. Yep, even really bad ones. Even they have something to bring to the table.

We're trying to be like Blade. All of the vampire's strenghts, none of it's weaknesses ;)

I'm dating myself now.

And as for the vaults thing. Thats a possibility but it's an entirely different project. Would be it's own site on it's own domain. That being said, we already have plans in the works for offline withdrawal requests. Basically - the site goes kaput, and through a manual process we try and get your withdrawal to you.

It would be easier to comment on a mock-up of your site but I will touch on a few things about Cryptsy. It is slow. Front page has several "coming soon" that have stayed that way for months. Dashboard page - has top balances in very large font but the balances are already listed in left column. The trade key does not need to be seen every time I log in (especially above the fold). I don't need to see tweets, I need to see up to second info on coin is not functioning/trading correctly. Trade page - I really don't care about the tweets here. Click on a pair and it takes > 5 seconds for the page to load. Left column - big space for USD Markets but there are none (don't believe they ever had any).

Blade was nothing without Whistler. I will be your Whistler!

Well so far all that stuff you mentioned we're not doing anyway. We want to be as efficient as possible.

Does anyone really give a crap about their "top balances"? No. I dont think they do.

Our plan:

Title bar with relevant links: Balances, Markets, Coin Voting, Account. Thats all you need.

Balances: Shows your balances. Can access markets from there. Generate deposit addresses. Withdraw.

Markets: List of all markets and pairings.

Coin Voting: Where you vote for new coins to be added.

Account. Your account stuff. Manage 2FA, change password, etc.

Thats all you need. I don't know why you'd need more. Open orders are on your balances page. Trade history is on the market pages - does anyone need a non-coin specific trade history? Like your entire history on one page? Maybe we'll put that on your account page.

Left sidebar: List of all coins and current trade price, plus a visual volume indicator.

Main window: The goodies go here.

Here's what the market window looks like as of when I screenshotted it 5 minutes ago. Colors will be tweaked. And yes it looks like coinex.com. It's a really good layout that we like a lot.

Does anyone think a "your recent trades" section is necessary? Maybe we'll make that optional. Speed up loading by not showing crap you don't want to see.

Notice the Stop order is already in. We're good like that ;)

https://i.imgur.com/Wuir9c5.jpg

Looks like a nice design.


Yes. That was something I always wished btc-e had, especially when using the API.

Please add Darkcoin (DRK)

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=421615.0

I'd say 'your recent trades' is a must. It could be optional though.

Coin voting is NOW LIVE.

www.allcrypt.com/beta

You can vote on which coins are added to the exchange when we launch (which is hopefully within a week!).

Please note - it's beta. There may be bugs. Please report any you see. Please also report if it's slow. It shouldnt be. The page is extremely lightweight.

All updates are live. You shouldnt have to refresh that page. Ever. Try it out. Open the page. Then, open it in another page or browser. Vote on one page. Watch the coin move in the other as well. Super swanky.

Anyway, there we go. If your coin is NOT on the list - email us and we'll add it right quick. No, most of the coins do not have names yet. We imported those coins from lists that did not have names attached, so adding names is a manual process, unless someone wants to supply us with a CSV of the symbol,name and then we can update quickly.

Have fun voting! We hope to launch soon!

www.AllCrypt.com

The voting is great but i always thought it should only be one part of the measure of a coin's popularity. Voting can be rigged, gamed, etc.

Possibly look at things like current network hash, or increase in hash. I know that would take more resources.

Maybe some other, easily checked metric like number of tweets/retweets, google hits for the coin name, or a psychic reading. 

The list needs Noblecoin!

I would love for you to add Mol  and PIR

Listed it about 20 minutes ago.

The only way this voting can be rigged is by working your IP address over and over. In general, it's pretty solid.

Network hash is a bit hard to look at without a good system... we cant download every wallet just to see if we should include the wallet. And new coins don't have the listings and resources on other webpages where we can reference them.

DOGE's hash? Thats likely on 100 sites.

NOBL's hash? Not likely.

So, voting. Seems to be the most fair.

Great idea! I've already sent you a message suggesting this, but can you please add a donation address for DigiByte (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=408268.0)? Thanks.

Be sure to add Zedcoin!  Went to vote but the www.AllCrypt.com/beta site isn't working right now

I accidentally killed the server when checking stats. Its back now :)

IP change is fairly easy. I have 4 IPs available from my desktop (cable modem, 2 VPNs, phone). If i use web proxies, that number is unlimited. If I use a script on web/socks5 proxies...

Proof - PM a coin to me and I will make it rise.

I agree the network hash is probably unworkable. Just putting out ideas.

Heads up, you're posing  the wrong address to vote :)



http://www.allcrypt.com/beta/voting.php

Is the one I think you meant to put

Your currently putting up

http://www.allcrypt.com/beta/

at least you did on Zed =)

Same thing. Without the voting.php at the end it redirects to voting.php anyway.

I added the voting.php to make it look a little less beta ;)

I would have thought so too, but it wigged out my browser (IE) and seemed to go into some strange loop going no where

any idea for the launch date?

PIR (Piratecoin) Baby!

It's been on there for hours :)

I am HOPING for less than a week. Fingers crossed.

Great... I can tell that to my fellow nekonauts (NYANcoins reddit)

Unrelated: bought these for my girlfriend for Christmas: http://www.thinkgeek.com/product/1202/?srp=2

hahaha... maybe soon you will be able to buy them with Nyancoins  :)  lol

I know, I was just showing support lol

Please add [Q2C] Qubitcoin
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=411065.0

Add leprocoin please!

Leprocoin already added!

I like the voiting. I dont like the bribe thing.

The investment you make is a calculated one based on future fees etc. Normal in a capitalism system.

But bribes are a bad side of capitalism. Not something you should base your ROI on.

I don't think the ideas was to accept all the same shit as we do in the "normal" system. I tought it was something cryptocurrency wants to change. But it could be just me thinking that.

Anyway good luck with the exchange. We can use a good one after some had to stop after being hacked.

you got my vote.

This is looking very interesting, I'll keep this in my tracking list. And ofcourse daily bump my favourite coin. :)

As far as your design concerns go: wouldn't it be an idea to accept someone from the bitcointalk forum, I am sure there are people willing to do it initially for free to get into a promising company like this. *wink wink* ;)

Accept someone from the forum? What do you mean?

In other news, added about 10 coins I was emailed about overnight.

Someone from the forum could do the design work for your exchange without you having to pay $15,000 for it.

Gotcha. We actually have most of our design done already. Between myself and a few others we cobbled together a pretty decent looking page. Scroll up for a sample screenshot.

Please add UnionCoin(UNC)
thx for u

Did this morning.

Ah right ^^ haven't had time to read it all yet, it looks well-arranged.

Why is it, when I try to vote, it does nothing. No pop-up, no change in votes.... nada.

Javascript disabled?

At the WORST you should get a popup box saying there's a server connection issue.

Best case the arrow should animate and fade up, and the number should increase.

If NOTHING happens - I'd guess your javascript is disabled?

Oops.

We broke the site. It's working now.

We tried to add an auto-reconenct feature and had an OR instead of an AND and all the site did on every click was reconnect.

If click_arrow AND not connected, then reconnect. Thats good.

If click_arrow *OR* not connected, then reconnect. Very bad. Nothing happens. All broken ;)

Fixed now :)

That got it. Thanks!

Its a good night coding AllCrypt.com... (I promise I'm not working on security while drinking. I'm coding the Marketplace page ;)

https://i.imgur.com/gloDcPXl.jpg

Whatcha think? Looking good?

And yes, those are doge, moon, lot, and pot wallets open ;)

https://i.imgur.com/dHJxYd5l.jpg

Neat, but I think you are asking a tad to much for your Doge ;)

Maybe some candlestick graphs in there...

Haha. Test values we put in the database ;)

"This is where the chart will go"

We havent gotten that far yet ;)

On the left side where you display your markets, you may want to consider a search box if you ever get that many coins as cryptsy. :)

Thanks for the tip. We'll see about adding that in the sidebar

Lebowskis(lbw) seems to be up and rolling again.  It was a pretty popular coin for a while. Might not hurt to add it

The Dude is back?!

Do you have any idea how many coins will be listed on launch? Top 10 on the voting? Top 25?

The dude is back

It will be as many as we have time to add. We're not sure. More the better.

But we also don't want to say a number and then have people pissed off if they were 3 votes from the top.

We'll add as many as possible, and then once we're up and running and nothing is crashing, we'll get back to adding coins. Same as before, top coin in the list gets added, and we keep moving.

Wow, just found you linked in an article on Aurora, did not really read the coinvoting beta-stuff, just saw your fancy site but no info whatsoever, wrote you an email, sceptical and then found the link to bitcointalk and read the whole thread and I am really impressed and excited.
I was a professional fund manager and  I`ve traded (and still am trading...) kryptos at virtual equivalents of very dark corners of very bad neighbourhoods and I´m longing for some professional exchange. Will you trade only krypto-to-krypto?
I`d also like the Vault function. Why not offer cold storage in exchange for lack of liquidity? I`d do that.
I makes accepting kryptos a lot easier for "lusers" like me if we know we can quickly "disconnect" our kryptos from the web and store them "on paper" at a trusted location, without having to worry to have to run some "ubuntu" from a usb stick in order to start a "client" called electrum to somehow print a paper wallet (if we manage to make sure the printer wasn`t hacked...).
As you seem to communicate mostly here (no facebook???? only two twitter tweets???), you`ll have a hard time marketing to a broader non nerd audience, but I`ll do what I can to promote you, if your performance is as good as it promises so far.
All the best from Germany! Can`t wait to open my account!

Trying to vote this morning and all browsers say the web sockets error pop-up... is this just me?

Extended power outage due to ice overnight. Heading in to get the server restarted :)

No worries folks - we are admittedly still in beta and NOT on production hardware yet. That upgrade is this weekend if all goes well.

Server is back up and voting is online again.

Also found a bug in the voting page - if you receive the websockets error, it wont try and reconnect anymore. That's been fixed, but you'll still need to refresh your page or re-load in a new window to get that update. After that it should at least always try a reconnect before announcing a failure.
`

I still get the websocket error in Firefox 27.

Are you at home or work?

At home

Was a bug in the server software, just noticed it was down.

The more this happens, the more we can trace the errors and get them fixed before we go live. Bugs in beta arent a bad thing, helps us shore up the server for release.

It's fixed now, thanks :)

How long until launch?  ;D

Websockets error is back... :(

Yeah the damn bug is testy. Every time I think we get it it comes back. We have so much debugging in the server code that it's crazy. But every freeze we get closer to finding out WHY its freezing.

We'll get it. Have to get it. Cant go live with a freezing server app ;)

Soon? We are working like dogs to get this site up and running. The DB server was built over the weekend and is about to be hooked into the alpha testing, and we're going to test deposits and withdrawals today.

Thats awesome. Can't wait for a decent exchange to launch that isn't run by some man behind the curtain (Big Vern) and that finally has a logical system to add coins...

yep, can`t wait...

We haven't forgotten anyone - been working hard. Had a lot of holes in the new user registration we had to close up, and that seems to be done. On to the next step.

We have this weekend free (yes, we are all losers without women, or women who live hours away, or in one case, one who hates valentines day!) so we'll be getting this thing up soon. We are hoping to be able to tell you a launch day in the next day or three. It will be sometime next week. Fingers crossed. It's taking a lot longer than we thought it would!

I know this won't be a priority but I would be interested in a referral program.

Consider it a part of marketing  ;)

Yes, I agree, referall links are a nice little reward.

We wanted to solicit an opinion.

We were contacted today to add a new coin to the voting, and I'm highly leaning against it.

The coins name? Altcoin.

Yes, Altcoin, the generic term for all, well, altcoins.

Something else fun? There's already another coin called Altcoin.

So, it's an Altcoin, thats called Altcoin, the same thing as another Altcoin called Altcoin.

Thats like starting a car company called Car.

1: Hey man, I'm buying a new car!
2: Sweet, I heard they are really cool.
1: What?
2: Cars are really cool.
1: Uhhh.... yeah... we all know that.
2: No man, not cars, Cars!
1: What?
2: You said you're buying a Car right?
1: Yeah... are you insane?
2: No man, the new Car cars are top of the line.
1: Why did you just say "car cars"?

Seriously. Do we have to do this?

So, I'm considering implementing a rule that we will also NOT list coins that lead to confusion. Like if some tool makes biitcoin. Or Dojcoin.

Thoughts? After all, we want to do what YOU want...

Altcoin is a terrible name. Since it is a duplicate, they will probably end up changing the name.

Other things to avoid are trademark issue coins.

You probably should get some guidelines written down.

I actually received a reply from the dev telling me that it's called altcoin because it's the king of all altcoins.

And I should stop thinking of other coins as altcoins, and think of their coin when I think the word altcoin.

"If you just think ALTCOIN is ALT, don't think ALTCOIN also includes litecoin, dogecoin etc, then everything will be ok."

If I only change my way of thinking, then their name is ok.

I'm gonna release a new candy and call it Coke - and just tell people to stop thinking about Coca cola when they think Coke, and think candy instead.

*boggle*

Is allcrypt and allcrypt.com/beta down? I cannot access either of them this morning.

Internet was out due to the snowstorm. Remember - we aren't on production servers yet. 

Seems to be back up now.

Any update on possible launch date?

We are hoping for Monday. We all have a busy weekend so we aren't sure if we can make that but as long as critical bugs are squashed we should be able to open on Monday.

Last minute over the weekend we decided to implement a ton of security features. It went slower than we hoped.

Let me be very clear: As soon as the security features are working, we are opening in a beta mode. Not those sites who are perpetually in beta, truly a "we're not done yet, but coins are secure and trading works so why wait" beta.

Coins near the top of the voting list have already had wallets downloaded, we just havent updated the list. That being said, pass this on to the devs if anyone is watching:

PikaCoin is utterly broken. The wallet wants RPC authentication to even use command line arguments (pikacoind getinfo returns a username and password error).

The top voted coin, WallStreetCoin has, as far as we can tell, ONLY a compiled binary unix wallet. Yes no thanks. We only use open source wallets. We are adding a requirement shortly where you MUST have a git link to your wallet. No hard to find obscure hidden source code.

I think there was another issue, it was late last night. Dont remember.

Anyway. Hoping to launch very soon. If the code goes well tonight, possibly Tuesday morning. We are on a production server, cloudflare is active, SSL is acquired (waiting on our upgraded SSL approval), helpdesk system is mostly in place. Blog is up, but we have no articles.

Feel free to view the helpdesk system, FAQs, and all thats there already: http://support.allcrypt.com

We will see you all VERY soon!

Launching Friday!

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=488010.new#new

I see this for DGC and SXC. First of all, SXC isn't Multipool mined. Second, there is a large bunch of coins mined there which haven't been added by this moment. Like the former UNOCS members (FTC, WDC, PXC) and many others seen on the 1st page of Multipool.

Chill. We "aint open yet".

While coin voting is the #1 way coins get on the site, we wont be much of an exchange if the coins the multipool users are mining arent added. I personally have 3 mining rigs. The reason we started this exchange is I, personally, was pissed off at the way [not throwing anyone under the bus]'s exchanges worked. I still multipool mine. So do a few of our team. We're sure not trading those coins on someone else's exchange.

That being said - have you seen the list? I count 23 coins we've added SO FAR that are NOT multipool mined, and added by voting.

Not a single voted coin has been bumped because we're adding OTHER coins that make the exchange more useful for everyone.

Yes, it is. There are other multipools other than multipool.pl

The original Multipool is www.multipool.us by Flound.

Alright, it's up to you anyway, good luck.

Sorry. I knew it wasn't .com. I was thinking of... um... no idea what site is .pl now that I think about it.

Launch still taking place today?

Yes. Running final checks. Linking coins. Watch twitter for live updates. @all_crypt

Is there anything going to happen with this new exchange? You guys told that the release is today and there is nothing? I thought that this exchange will be something professional, but I guess we still have to wait for one with a professional look and business plan that will be able to secure the alternate coin market as an exchange and storage.

I am just sick of these services that are about these anonymous people calling themselves "I" "our developers", "we". Come on guys!

At least don't miss the release that, especially when you promise it.

Not sure about your time zone, but it's still Friday the 28th here.

I've personally been in the office pretty much non stop all day fixing last minute things that cropped up. You launch a website and tell me everything ran smooth ;)

enabled 2step auth and try to enter the 6digit pin, and then system says "invalid response" ... good job cant use my account because the system is buggy?

For proper tracking please submit a support ticket at http://support.allcrypt.com

That being said - did it show your the QR code to generate the 6 digits or just ask for the number without showing the code?

Minor problem: had to refresh the page for the 2FA QR Code to actually show up, then everything worked out finde. Looks promissing.

O, what a good looking exchange.
We need central exchange too.
Xedoscoin(XDC) https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=445651.0
What about the abandoned trademarks ressurction, we are one of them  ;)

Both added. In the future, use the support ticket system on the site. :)

First real exchange for PIRATECOIN! Woo Hoo! Thanks Allcrypt! PIR can finally start to take off.

Do you have an API for coinmarketcap.com ?

Thats coming next week. Making sure all the frontend stuff is bug free before we put an API behind it.

24 new coins added tonight.

Return my MOON coins! I sent it to deposit half of day ago.

UPD: Solved

I see this on my Balance page (BTC):

"Possible deposit/withdrawal delay. No new blocks seen for 39 minutes"

What's this about? Is everything OK with your BTC wallet? I assume the bitcoin network is working fine, so it's a bit worrying.

EDIT: it's OK now

It means our wallet, for whatever reason, hasn't seen a new block for 39 minutes. 99% of the time it's because the blockchain is slow. It happens from time to time. Especially with altcoins.

The reason you're not used to seeing this is no other exchange actuay tells you when a blockchain is having issues. Hide it to make it seem like your site is ok all the time, and when we honestly show you, it looks like our site is problematic.

We'd rather be honest.

Please cooperate with LOVEcoinproject (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=pm;sa=send;u=304360) to solve your technical problems.

I have tens of thousands of LOVEcoins stuck at allcrypt, and the allcrypt message is:


I don't mind that allcrypt removes it, but I want to get my coins out before that happens.

At poloniex, the coin is traded (https://poloniex.com/exchange/btc_love) at a very low price, but it's not dead.

Thanks a lot!

P.S.: Crossposted to lovecointhread (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=550452.msg6424014#msg6424014).

I registered on AllCrypt yesterday and chose to keep my account anonymous. And now it is asking me too add 2FA whenever I log in. I know it's good for security, but if you're forcing people to use the 2FA then fix your system. Since yesterday, I've scanned the QR code 10 times and entered the key manually a lot of times in Authy but it gives me Invalid Response every single time. Please remove this obligation or fix the system, it's really annoying.

That's a problem with your authy - I use authy as do a good many of our users. It works. The "invalid response" is a response from authy - not our site. Not sure how to fix your installation of authy. Like I said - I personally use authy and it works.

And yes, a requirement for an anonymous account is 2fa. That's non-negotiable.

That's very strange. I use 2FA on all of the exchanges I use, which includes BTC-E, Coinbase, Cryptsy, Mintpal, and many other websites. It has never happened to me before, I've tried authorizing on your exchange over 20 times but I get the same message again and again.

Can you forward a screenshot of the error to contact (at) the website address? (Trying to avoid spambots)

Chart + Analysis.

Please, for the love of Satoshi, good graphics with statistical analysis SMA, EMA, Bollinger bands etc!

If you made it so it also tracked action a major exchange or 2 for bigger coins then I would only trade on your exchange.

True story.

G.

Hope this will be a beautifull exchange ! And a lot of different coins !!

Same deal. Email me. Would love to talk about exactly what you want to see.

The origin of the problem has been found:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=550452.msg6453575#msg6453575

SCAM SITE

Don't trade on allcrypt.com, this is a scam site. my friend sent PND to me, Mintpal doesn't support internal transaction. So I chose allscrypt online address, finally they deleted my account and I wanna hacked them, my PND is lost, so ridiculous. >:(

Aah. Just came across this. Was hoping he'd post here somewhere.

See, fox there happened to be the beneficiary of a small bug we had one night last week, where we accidentally had two daemon processes running on the same machine at the same time, and a few deposits that were made during that timeframe were duplicated in one instance of our failsafe checks (there are three levels).

Instead of reporting the issue like another honest user, he decided to try and withdraw it all. Of course the withdrawal failed, as the other failsafe checks realized he did not actually have that much.

Upon looking into the accounts that were affected and the behavior of the affected users, we noticed that fox had not logged into his account in over a month. He logged in, generated a PND address, and made a deposit, all within 2 minutes. Then, literally 17 seconds after the deposit confirmed, he attempted the withdrawal.

Same as 2 other users.

Sorry fox, not an "honest mistake". Anyone not using the site for a month, logging in and making a 100k PND deposit within minutes, who then saw a 300K deposit being credited would take a bit longer than 17 seconds to get his withdrawal address ready and hit that withdrawal page. We'd imagine there may be a few moments of "wow what just happened" before you run for the withdrawal page.

So, as per the terms and conditions that you implicitly agreed to by using the site, your account was suspended indefinitely. Because we take site security, and user's trying to take advantage of the system, extremely seriously.

On that note, going to close this thread (if I can?) and redirect everyone to the new/active thread:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=548456.0

Everyone, please direct all questions and comments to the new thread:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=548456.0

Oh, of course you'd try and 'close' this thread and create a new self moderated thread to clear all the fire.

All these new exchanges saying they're better than mt gox, when in actuality they're all going to end up doing the same thing to the end users.

I no longer trust any exchange...which completely sucks because it makes it that much harder to trade alts, and I can only do it through escrow on forums.

No was merely trying to keep it so that new topics were not being posted to a months old "we are opening an exchange" announcement thread, and instead to use the new one.

There's no fire to clear. A thief got caught and tried to smear us in retribution. We have nothing to hide. We are, I'd wager, the only exchange that speaks honestly to the community and it's users. I am NOT saying other exchanges are dishonest - far from it. What I am saying is you'll get nothing but the straight facts from us, even if they are harsh, not politically correct, or, god forbid, we write posts like normal human beings. Which means sometimes we are in a bad mood, sometimes we are tired of whining, and sometimes we blow off steam.

But you'll never get anything less than total honesty from us.

I'm sorry you've had such terrible experiences with other exchanges. Maybe one day you'll give us a shot. :)

But it's moot. We didn't moderate this thread so I can't close it.

Would rather everyone posted replies to the new one though. No point in posting in a months old announcement thread.

Do you plan to API for its balance of coins and orders ?

i sent some coin to your exchange still nothing, no pending or anything

And did you file a support ticket? Did you read the announcement blog post plastered over the top of every page on the site?

exchange works fine to me totally!

I like that exchange. Deposits/withdraw works very fast. Main problem is low volume, so not much trades here. But a lot of coins, even some which was delisted from anywhere :)

All Crypt where do we go to beg and plead that a coin be listed?

@allcrypt - I think it would increase the acceptance of the exchange if the trade history actually displayed if it was a BUY or a SELL. Maybe even with colours so it's a bit more lively.

I'm sorry to see Allcrypt go. I've made what use of it that I could (given the sparse order lists), always wondering why it wasn't attracting more attention given the many innovative features it had.

If you can't work out a solid plan to re-enter the altcoin market with a big splash, may I make another suggestion: The Allcrypt team definitely has a lot of demonstrated talent that shouldn't go to waste! I'd recommend talking to some of the other bigger exchanges like Poloniex and Bittrex, to see if they'd be interested in some of the feature sets you've developed for Allcrypt. I think there should be some employment opportunity or at least some contracting opportunities to implement some of the ideas found only on Allcrypt to this point.

Best wishes!!,

"AllCrypt.com is down for a bit

Well, due to some apparent exploit in wordpress, someone, somehow, got into the server tonight, installed some files, and managed to empty the goddamned BTC wallet. Best I can tell it was something with that worthless pile of shit software wordpress.

I'm fucking done. I run a site, spend thousands of hours of time, thousands of dollars of my OWN money to run it, decide to shut down, and somehow, through ways I cannot even figure the hell out, someone gets in, uploads files to the server, somehow finds the goddamned BTC wallet on the network, and it appears that they slammed it with withdraw requests. Of course, the wallet is locked - but it unlocks when a withdraw is legitimately made through the site. I THINK they made a real wd on the site, and then slammed the backdoor to get the other funds out.

We had 42 BTC in the wallet. 12 was the sites. 30 was users BTC. I'm fucking done with crypto. I'll post details when I sort this fucking mess out. Not that it will matter, because no one ever actually gives a shit when something like this happens. "

What a surprise that happened quickly after the announcement of the shutdown, before traders were able to withdraw their funds...

So wtf is up with people's coins that were not stolen from this crap?!  No response here or to support email!

What a fucking way to treat people that supported your shit exchange.......you're a complete dick for not letting everyone know wtf is going on with our coins!

How do we begin the process of having funds returned to us? I doubt anyone bothered to steal Trollcoins?

so allcrypt is just gonna steal all our coins!!! Im beginning to seriously doubt there even was a hack!!

imo we just lost all the money and thats it
