We have bought back the shares at 0.00501 BTC each (they all traded at 0.0005 each) and hence everyone should now be reimbursed their "investment" incl. the trading fees.

This does NOT constitute a guarantee that we will or are able to do so for failed projects or possible scams. We did it in this case because the project issuer has not withdrawn his funds and hence we did a buyback on his account.

Needless to say, the project has been delisted

Planned downtime Sunday 17th November 13:00GMT to 16:00GMT. We will be relocating all related servers out of the US. The downtime most likely will not need a full 3 hours, this is a worst case scenario.

We have received information that this listing was not made with the approval of eGenesis. The account of the issuer has been locked and the funds frozen. The issuer has been contacted and we are awaiting his/her reply to set things straight.

This just says, we will not allow further uncontrolled listings to prevent issue such as FIDOR, DTALE.

It's not about knowing, our platform does not check the listings. The concept of Cryptostocks was that it is absolutely unregulated, investors need to do their due diligence when investing.

But it has become apparent that this concept does not work. As such we will be putting in some basic verification steps before a project can be listed in the future. This should at least prevent obvious misrepresentations but will surely not sort out all the scams and ponzi schemes.

Unverified security listings have been suspended with immediate effect. Recent scams have made it clear that the concept of an open and completely unregulated platform does not work.
We'll work out a formalized approach to listings going forward. Although this will not totally prevent but should at least eliminate the risks of misrepresentation.
In the meanwhile, should you want to list a project then contact customersupport@cryptostocks.com.

11th November 2013 - System Update

Changes / New features:
Coin balances show now with 6 decimal places
Simple Wysiwyg editor for announcements and security contracts
Shareprices now allow for 6 decimal places
New API function get_securities_info. This allows to retrieve multiple security's info with one API call.
API documentation updated (no feature change, it has not been documented before), check the comments about caching of values

Bugfixes:
Currency on summary info screen of dividend payments was always showing BTC regardless of actual security currency.
Graph is now showing the total volume of the time period instead of the volume of the last trade.
The total order value is now updated on the order screen when clicking on the orderbook price or quantity.

This will be the official thread for all Cryptostocks announcements here on Bitcointalk. We'll lock the thread so that it contains only announcements. That will make it easier for everyone to keep track.

Listing has been put on trade stop until this is clarified.

Yes that was our bad, we had put up a notice, did the maintenance and when the maintenance was done we took down the notice but forgot to reactivate the currency withdrawals.  Once we noticed our mistake we put up a notice so that we don't get flooded with further emails.

Sorry about that.

You will be getting 6 digits this weekend, as well as a few other changes (Wysiwyg editor for announcements and contracts), etc.

We do understand that taking away features might be frustrating, but with removing these we can announce the following improvements:
 - dark orders: this will allow you to place order that do not show in the orderbook (but they do incurr increased trading fees and they require a large order volume)
 - push-data on orderbook, own placed orders and account balance. This unique experience allows you to track the market developments in updates as short as a few seconds.
 - auto trade upon deposit, sell your coins upon deposit, fully automated.
 - auto withdraw your account balances once they reach your defined threshold

And more to come.

This is an absolutely required move.

Let me give you an insight into this:
 - Any-2-Any is generating somewhere between 60% to 80% of the system load
 - A2A is generating less than 3% of the total exchange volume
 - the system coding complexity is at least 4 times higher. This means that any systemchanges that we implement take 2 to 4 times longer to test and double check hence putting us in a major disadvantage to other exchanges
 - looking at the data we can see that the only active trades of this are bots, taking advantage of price changes much quicker than any human in those low volume markets,

Having considered all these variables we have concluded that it is not worthwhile to maintain the Any-2-Any trading.

Vircurex is updated.

That did the trick, difficulty is at 3.92495658 now. does that sound about right?

I have downloaded the latest version from github and compiled it. the difficulty I see is 0.98123914.  How is that?

My current wallet shows with getinfo: "version" : 70400.   Downloading the latest source from Github and compiling it gives me v0.6.1-1995-g473ce8f-dirty-beta

Is that correct?

Anoncoins are now also traded on Vircurex.com
