Hi all - thanks again for your patience. We've had a spike in new account creation and support requests over the past week or so and have been dealing with those. As we scale our team we'll be more prepared to deal with those as well as remain active here.
Here are some updates:
→
Presales minimum is now $100, down from $25,000, making WCXT available for purchase to more people. We've been making available for sale a fixed and limited amount of WCXT on a daily basis. This prevents all WCXT from being sold out in a day. If you get a "Tokens Sold Out" message, more WCXT may become available at 00:00 UTC the following day so you can try then.
We also added more bonus options for presale purchases, including for purchases under $10K. Bonuses are proportional to the amount of tokens bought, in percent terms.
We will
not be using escrow services for the presale. Instead we're going one step further and offering full refunds on any WCXT purchase you make from now till the ICO ends. Refunds are available for any WCXT you've purchased in the past, too. For refunds, email
hello@wcex.co.
This refund policy achieves two things:
- WCXT supply is tight and demand is high. Refunds allow us to get WCXT into the hands of people who are committed to the project, while weeding out less committed purchasers. This results in increased engagement from WCX's participant base, which is vital to the future success of the exchange.
- Zero risk for early participants. You get a chance to see how things play out while ensuring you get your hands on WCXT before they sell out, if you want to. WCXT purchases are hence akin to (free) options that can be annulled at any time before the end of the ICO, or exercised post-ICO.
→ WCX sign ups have exceeded
500,000 users. We were skeptical of this figure too, so we dug through our email list to check the viability of all these accounts. Worth noting that this number is the number of
verified users, meaning users who signed up, resolved the CAPTCHA, and clicked the verification link we sent to their inbox. New sign ups are also limited to 1 per IP, so if an IP is already in our database, it's blocked from creating a new account.
Our audit revealed that there are indeed a number of likely spam registrations -- estimated at around ~18% of the total base, which comes down to ~92K likely spam registrations currently. An email was tagged as spam if it used a likely spam domain name extension (.tk, .biz, etc.), was likely duplicate of another email in our base, was registered through a known spam site as its referrer (such as pay-to-click or micro-task sites), or triggered a fraud or security warning with our application security partners at
sqreen.io.
CloudFlare stats for the wcex.co domain:
Unique visitors past 30 days: 1,180,219
~70% of traffic coming from non-English-speaking countries.

WCX Beta trading volume is rocketing. We've paused new invitations to the Beta for now and will re-enable them in about 7 days. We're heads down working on substantial front-end updates as well as new, modern, and highly performant backend infrastructure that will allow WCX to scale to millions of users and thousands of cryptocurrency markets -- while still delivering a seamless experience to all customers.
→ This was announced previously, and worth repeating here: the
ICO start date was pushed back to October 31, 2017. This new date gives everyone a chance to use the exchange (planned to launch on Oct 10) and then decide whether or not to participate in the ICO.
→ If you've contacted us and have not yet received an answer, please do not send the same message again. We promise, we've got you covered -- we're working through our support queue and will get to you ASAP.
Thanks for the updates wcxofficial good to see some transparency here...
