Today we have a couple of things to announce regarding new features and updates.
New Website StyleAs some of you may have noticed, we have changed our site's theme colours to a nice black and white contrast. Previously, we had our homepage and emails themed in a dark Orange. We believe the new style will accommodate more users tastes.
If you enjoyed the Orange, don't worry, there's 4 themes available to use on the site including a Night theme.
You can select the style you would like to use on your account from the Settings page or the Quick Theme Selector in the profile dropdown.
ICO HostingOur second announcement is regarding ICOs. We are now fully equipped to host ICOs for new coin developers and project owners. Below is some information about our ICO hosting:
- Wallet source code is required to be provided before the ICO can be launched
- Coin logo, Guthub/bitbucket, ANN/website must be provided
- Up front fee of 1 BTC required, non-refundable
- We suggest obtaining a PoD, however this is not required
- All ICO markets will have 0.01% trade fees, throughout the whole course of the ICO
To contact us about listing an ICO, please send a ticket to our
Support system and select ICO hosting from the dropdown. Alternatively, join us in the Freenode IRC in
#EmpoEX-Support to talk directly to a member of the team.
User Incentive SystemWe've come up with a unique way to provide incentives to our users through methods which benefit all of us. We are able to offer users a 20% discount on trade fees in exchange for a little something from you. Users who have a BitcoinTalk profile can participate and claim their incentives very quickly and easily.
Start by going to your Settings, followed by the Incentives tab.
You will then be asked to verify ownership of your account by editing your Personal Text field to say "#EmpoEX". After doing this, enter your BCT username and click the Verify button. The process will complete automatically.
You will then be verified and ready to start participating in the incentives we offer. To start off, we will offer 2 incentives utilising your Signature and your Personal Text field.
Personal TextThe Personal Text incentive involves entering "I support #EmpoEX" into your profile's Personal Text field. This will grant you
5% discount on trade fees on your EmpoEX account.
SignatureThe Signature incentive involves setting your profile signature to the following:
I support #EmpoEX https://empoex.com | @EmpoEX twitter | https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=824587.0
This will grant you
15% discount on trade fees.
After you have done these changes, our system will verify them automatically, and you will see "Active" next to the ones you chose. If you remove any of the things from your BCT Profile after the verification, then the Incentives will be automatically turned off on your account.
The good news is, you can participate in both of these at the same time, for a
whopping 20% discount on trade fees! Visit your Settings -> Incentives to get started.
Note: This system is still in Beta and we are ironing out any issues that may occur when using it.
Note2: The discount is handled via a repayment based on the trades you've done in a certain timeframe. You will get a notification about this each time a repayment takes place.
Coming SoonThe next update we will do is a Referral System allowing users to refer friends and earn based on the trading they do. More details will be released nearer the time when this system is ready to be launched.
As always, if you have any questions, problems or queries you can submit a
Support Ticket, or talk directly to us in
#EmpoEX-Support on Freenode IRC.
