Gonna be on http://bitcoincharts.com/markets/ again?

I tried logging in with my old account, but it seems you started anew...

As I don't plan on exchanging a few thousand USD anytime soon I guess I can just watch you from afar and wish you the best.

We'll be adding additional products that everyone can get in on asap. We're making sure that we're covered legally.

My body is ready.

Mine as well.

if I read this right, you're only doing USD, no other currencies?

can you publish API documentation for trading, please?

Right now we're offering USD but will add others soon.

We have 2 API's and a 3rd coming. I'll post the Mt Gox style API everyone is familiar with.

I'm on the fence, but leaning toward you all. What's paramount is that all those who are owed money from the past get paid.

Good luck, guys.

Will you be doing INR anytime soon?

Welcome back! Always liked TradeHill.

Competition: Much needed, if one exchange does most of the volume then we're not very decentralized.
I've always enjoyed Bitcoin competition, nothing else like it.

Very true. We need more exchanges! Moar!

The ability to add dollars to a trading account via ACH push is something that no service offers yet. Will Tradehill be able to add this?

We would like to. ACH is so reversible that it's understandable why no one in Bitcoin wants to use it.

I believe Coinbase offers it successfully.

Congratulations on your return.  Tradehill was my first exchange (and yeah, I got my dough out without any trouble...)

Best of luck.

Welcome back!

[Sukrim]

Ah, seeing JoelKatz reminds me... any plans on also acting as a Ripple gateway, similar to BitStamp?

We'll have an announcement soon regarding this.
Personally I'm a big fan of Ripple and see it complimenting Bitcoin not competing in most regards.

Welcome back!

Any chance CLP will be among your currencies?

[Jered Kenna (TradeHill)]

Welcome back!

Any chance CLP will be among your currencies?

It's on the map. We'll announce something solid when we have it.

I'm a big fan of the currency / country and want to add it soon.

Welcome back!

Glad to see you guys back in the game. Tradehill was an early island of professionalism at a time when most bitcoin business were, shall we say, lacking. Glad to have Jered back in the community.

FWIW, I had both $ and BTC in Tradehill when they shutdown. I exchanged some emails with Tradehill/Jered a month or two later, and was fully compensated.

Looking forward to the new platform. Sounds like you guys have some interesting plans for it.

[muyuu]

Provided you have reimbursed everybody in BTC and US$, welcome back.

[GMD1987]

Welcome back!  I didn't see it posted yet, but were account balances/history from pre-shutdown saved?  Ie, could I get my account history from before the shutdown?  Should I send an email to the same address that is used for receiving balances?

Currently the old Tradehill is focused solely on paying out to customers who make claims. If I can bring up more functionality in the future I'll make an announcement.

Provided you have reimbursed everybody in BTC and US$, welcome back.

I'm sure there are some stragglers that haven't inquired and I welcome them to shoot me an email at claim@tradehill.com
I'm responding to all emails and would like to get old Tradehill completely closed so I can focus entirely on Tradehill 2.0

We would like to. ACH is so reversible that it's understandable why no one in Bitcoin wants to use it.

I believe Coinbase offers it successfully.

The only problem is they can only do pulls, not pushes (I think it would require additional licensing in order to accept push deposits).

The day that I can have my paychecks directly deposited in to a trading account is the day that I will close my bank account. Literally the only reason I have one now is to accept my paychecks and hold on to them until the Coinbase pull comes through. It would be great to skip the middleman.

[dacoinminster]

Oh man, I missed you guys. Tradehill was always my preferred exchange, and my trust for Jered went WAY up when they closed down and refunded ALL the money. No way Mtgox could do that, IMHO.

Welcome back!

Are you guys going to be at the bitcoin conference in May?

[bozak]

What is your definintion of an "accredited investor"?  I am familiar with the SEC's definition, but it seems really restrictive for the bitcoin crowd, SEC definition copied below:

1. a bank, insurance company, registered investment company, business development company, or small business investment company;

2. an employee benefit plan, within the meaning of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act, if a bank, insurance company, or registered investment adviser makes the investment decisions, or if the plan has total assets in excess of $5 million;

3. a charitable organization, corporation, or partnership with assets exceeding $5 million;

4. a director, executive officer, or general partner of the company selling the securities;

5. a business in which all the equity owners are accredited investors;

6. a natural person who has individual net worth, or joint net worth with the person’s spouse, that exceeds $1 million at the time of the purchase, excluding the value of the primary residence of such person;

7. a natural person with income exceeding $200,000 in each of the two most recent years or joint income with a spouse exceeding $300,000 for those years and a reasonable expectation of the same income level in the current year; or

8. a trust with assets in excess of $5 million, not formed to acquire the securities offered, whose purchases a sophisticated person makes.

Welcome back Jered! Dealing with your exchange was always pleasant.

Can you elaborate a little on what your goals are with Prime? B2B is a little vague, as many small businesses have less BTC traffic than a hobbyist daytrader.
