crypto.pm | an upcoming cryptocurrency exchange

[Lemon]

I have decided I would like to help with the project, as you are UK based and seem serious about this venture then I feel I could add to the venture. I can do branding, web design, 3D, Illustration and pretty much any design related content. If you can do the technical stuff I am confident I could create a professional looking exchange, my coding at the moment is limited to HTML & CSS. I have been working on this project lately (http://www.marketutopia.co.uk/).

How come the .pm domain name by the way? Is it not better to use a .com and register the .co.uk too?

It's not necessarily better to use a .com; and as we're targeting a global market - we wanted a country neutral domain. Out of all the suggestions given to us by our brand agency, we ended up with crypto.pm - I like it personally!

.pm is hardly country neutral....since .pm is a country...but hey....

Being from the uk myself, I dont care on the name, just gimme a uk exchange

Interesting to see that you're courageous enough to use Node.js despite lack of integer (or decimal) types in JavaScript. Have you cooked your own decimal library or are you just confident that floating point works well enough even in the monetary domain?

We've built prototypes in more than one language, but you might be interested to know that BigDecimal/BigInteger was ported to Node. I'm not confident about floating point in the least, but I am confident in "immutable, arbitrary-precision, signed decimal numbers".

Invites are now being sent out in batches!

Edit: Linked dashboard screenshot ( http://crypto.pm/gfx/crypto-dashboard.png ) has now been updated.

Suggestion: NZD along with a local bank to send/receive funds to/from

We've now completed our migration from our testing platform (which was on crappy Heroku) to our development platform. We've also deployed version 0.35 to the masses.

We're still handing out invites to those interested!

[Lemon]

So, testing is going very well at the moment - and user feedback has been critical to the ongoing development of this platform. Talks with the FCA are going well, and we've narrowed down our choice of bank down to two after a number of high level talks.

Invites for the simulated test platform are still available.

Just to let you know that we're looking in to the feasibility of this.

add a fee. wise people dont trust people who try to give them something for free.

or at least you need to tell us very bluntly what you stand to gain.

If you look, we charge a flat 0.18% fee on trades. Are you referring to our escrow service? If so, it's a cross-marketing tool.

well right you have to charge something to prevent spamming. But do you hope to turn a profit at 0.18%?

Our financial projections are quite solid on this front. We do indeed intend (not hope) to turn a profit.

We don't believe in failure, therefore we don't hope, we know ;-)!

Given mtgox starts at 0.6% (https://mtgox.com/fee-schedule), not entirely sure of the reason for your statement.
