Depending on your definition of popularity, this is true.
There definitely is a demand for it. I don't think nor do I expect it to become accepted in mainstream society. There probably won't be any mainstream press about it. But for those in ecosystems where financial privacy is a concern, it has the opportunity to become very popular.

Our original design is to have, like you said, bulletproof servers.
Most likely it'd be a hidden service.
It wasn't until we saw BitSquare's UX that we even considered having a client instead.
It's an option we are considering.

"Custom Counterparty tokens can be used for a wide range of purposes and act as their own cryptocurrency, while still running on the Bitcoin blockchain."
Since they use the Bitcoin Protocol, the ledger is public. This isn't as privacy-centric as we'd like it to be.
Also, they use a web-wallet.

Eth Delta doesn't handle cross chain transactions. EtherDelta is only Ethereum coins.
They have a different model, one that I'd like to see grow.


Concepts aren't hard, but understanding them can take time. My personal background is in Information Security and it is true that I have not been actively participating on this specific forum, but I have been in other forums. Some of which that have a community whom have openly expressed a need for this platform. I'm here now as a result of other communities wishes to get this off the ground. They have large wallets and are petrified of moving their funds around because of the risk of involvement from legal and criminal entities. This account is new to this community, but I am not new to the security industry or privacy movement. I appreciate your skepticism.  

To answer your question about a Business Plan, yes. We understand the cost for paying crypto professionals is pricey, but we are more than happy to pay our family their desired salaries. Everybody who works, gets compensated for it. We have plans to incorporate an API into multiple marketplaces, which will increase the amount of transactions of our network. We would be willing to speak to you more privately if you are interested in contributing your time or effort to this. Thank you.

You have a few good questions.
I have used Bitsquare for awhile, and I can say their UI/UX experience is phenomenal. They also handle the connection to Tor before you're able to trade, another superb feature. But I did find some areas I wasn't personally happy about.

1. Limitation on exchange.
There is a cap on how much one can trade, and this present a problem for audiences who want to move around their assets. Max trade duration: 1 day / Max trade limit 3.00 BTC (only $2730 currently)

2. Centralized blockchain explorers
Though Tor connection is required, users aren't able to select their own source as to where they are gathering Bitcoin's Blockchain data. Same for other blockchains


Transparency is critical when starting a new business, and this is more true for an exchange. We will be providing all our code as open source, which will allow for anyone to verify that it's not even possible for anyone involved in this exchange to know who you are, or how you spend your money. I hope this sheds some light on your question. If it hasn't, please provide more details so we may explain more clearly.

Great question!
To avoid KYC/AML laws, we won't be able to allow our users to purchase/sell with domestic fiats such as the Euro, Dollar, etc. It's only coin-to-coin.
We are considering having a feature that allows users to easily move their coins from blockchain to blockchain in a minimal amount of time, to make it difficult, if not nearly impossible for analyses to track. Increasing the entropy of the identity of users of this platform.

To address the technical issues and without giving out too much details, the exchange wouldn't hold any of the money or funds itself. Rather, you as the client would give permission to move money to an already predetermined address which allows for multiple levels of permission. The exchange has the ability to notify you there is an exchange ready, request that the funds be moved, but you must confirm to move your money anywhere. Without you and your private key, your funds don't move (your key stays on client-side of course). We hold no money, only connect the people whom want to exchange.

The fee is to cover the network cost and pay the developers/investors. How and who (pseudo-ID) the fee gets distributed to is all public, but as to the identity for whom they are, that is not available. What's public is the % of the fee that pays each dev and potential investors. This can also be subject to change, and a dev or investor can give or sell their shares of the transaction fee if they so like. This would be projected and be public on the blockchain as well, to keep integrity in the service.

(I may have not explained this as well as I'd like to. Still working on my English.)

How people use the technology isn't indicative of the technology itself.
But I suppose if we are to be prosecuted, it'll be for the justice system(s) to decide.

We are ready for any turbulence this may create in global economic structures.



This is exactly correctly.

Bitsquare isn't completely anonymous, as it does require people to provide personal information. Almost all exchanges do. We don't want that. We want you to be able to exchange as much as you want, without any knowledge of who you are. Because, it's your money and your business, not ours. Bitcoin is pseudo-anonymous. As time progresses, we are creating and building more blockchains that handle issues that weren't originally foresee-able. In some cases, they were foresee-able, but the original developers didn't know how much it'd scale. Whatever the reason,  the ability to utilize and seamlessly exchange any coin, any time, without a record becomes more and more valuable, as it will allow for the best parts of all coin attributes, so long as your funds exist in that/those coin(s).

There are many wallets/addresses that have funds in them that are monitored by chain analyses, people who's job are to de-anonymize wallet owners, etc. Bitcoin tumblers aren't trustless, and don't move your money off the public ledger. We are creating a trustless exchange, that allows for an exchange to other coins, say Monero, that are more private and allow for you to move your money back to whatever coin you want (be it Bitcoin or any Altcoin). Other ideas can include moving your coins to a more stable coin when other markets fluctuate, automatically buy/sell when conditions are met, no limit to amount of coins moved (some exchanges limit/cap how much a person can transfer). Transaction fee back to the exchange for their work. Growth in revenue isn't limited to the Market Caps of all coins, but the demand for people to apply the positive attributes of any coin they wish.

Building and developing an Anonymous Decentralized Bitcoin/Altcoin Exchange and we are looking for many people with experience in any of the following:
- Sidechain and Blockchain development
- Project Development Consultant
- Economic Projections
- Legal Assistance
- Investors

Interested in making some money and creating an anonymous exchange?
People should be able to exchange their coins without having to create an account. This allows for complete privacy to you and any transactions across all blockchains.

I've been around cryptocurrencies for about four years now, and have seen many changes and growths, not only in the markets, but in services and how those services have been adopted or denied by governments and corporations.

My main concerns is privacy. By now, to believe that Bitcoin is anonymous, is to believe the lie that was advertised many moons ago. Chain-analyzers main job is to track, watch and deanonymize addresses. Monero has become a strong Altcoin for privacy, however, exchanging from BTC to XMR is not an easy task for one who wants to remain private. The handful of exchanges that allow for BTC to Altcoin transaction, require a hefty amount of person information. Fortunately, there are services like Shapeshift.io that allow users to exchange their Bitcoins, and even Altcoins, for another coin. Unfortunately, Shapeshift has strong limits, such as trusting them to not run off with your money. While I truly believe they won’t just run off and be another exit scam, I don’t believe there’s a need for having a third party hold and control YOUR money. The other big flaw with Shapeshift is the amount one can transfer (around $3k), and their Privacy Policy which explains their cooperation with Law Enforcement Agencies.

We have been developing an exchange to address the following issues:

1. Create or use a blockchain to allow for the exchange of Bitcoins to any Altcoin, and vise-versa.
- This not only allows for users of one coin to be able to freely move to another coin, but also allows for all people to utilize the best attributes of all coins.

2. Create a Trustless exchange.
- Users can give the exchange permission to exchange their coins, but the agreement must happen before and after a trade is found.
- This design can also be integrated into existing exchanges

3. Ensure all transactions are do not require personal information/account for transactions. Completely Anonymous.
- No personal information or accounts will be created. It is also not possible for people exchanging to know who owns the other address they’re trading with. Similar to Monero’s use of a ViewKey.

We’re looking for more people to join the project. If interested, PM me.
