Hi Bitcoin Talk! We are BTC.sx We are an easy-to-use trading platform. With BTC.sx, you can use leverage to make trades on the order books of multiple exchanges. Unlike other platforms that use contracts or betting, your trades are actually executed on the exchange's order book. This allows you to move the market and obtain a reasonable price position during highly volatile periods. About UsWe were first established in 2013 by Joe Lee, who you may know as Seal (Hero Member and Donator) on these forums. The other co-founders are George Samman (COO), who is a former Wall Street Portfolio Manager, and Vincent Hoong (CFO), who is a Chartered Accountant and an Economics Analyst prior to joining BTC.sx. In total, the team now consists of eight bitcoin enthusiasts with very strong credentials in finance, IT and business. After processing $44 million of trade volume in under a year, we received 500 bitcoin in seed-funding from Seedcoin.Features1) Trade with 2:1, 5:1 or 10:1 leverage 2) Sell limits and regular or trailing stops 3) No subscription, deposit or withdrawal fees 4) Trade on three different exchanges from one account 5) All orders actually go through supported exchanges. Unlike exchanges that use contracts for betting, your trades are executed on the exchanges' order books. This allows you to move the market and obtain a reasonable price position during highly volatile periods.Purpose of This Thread1) Obtain community feedback 2) Share latest announcements 3) Answer your questions. Social Media Latest Announcements 20th January 2015 - BTC.sx Trade Placement Update 14th January 2015 - BTC.sx - Bitstamp Trading Status Update 26th November 2014 - BTC.sx Lowers Trading Fees by 20% 11th November 2014 - BTC.sx Lowers Stop Loss Limit 4th November 2014 - BTC.sx Partners with Bitfinex

Yes he is still co-founder and CEO. Could you get him to post here just to clear this up? Thanks! Is this account the official representative for btc.sx now?

Yes I have just sent Joe a message on Skype. He is not in the office right now (it is late here in the UK), so he may not post until the morning. This is the official account for BTC.sx now. As we have grown, it is no longer practical to continue to ask Joe (Seal) to post things from his personal account. It is much easier and professional to use one company-wide account that is accessible to everyone on the team.

Yes I can verify that BTC.sx on Bitcointalk is an official account! I'd like to first acknowledge the community as our startup's growth has skyrocketed since its original launch was announced on Bitcointalk. We then ran one of the longest running signature campaigns on the forum which gave me the chance to give bitcoins to new members of the community looking to get their first bitcoins though signature advertising schemes. Although the schemes have now ended, I'm proud to have had the chance to give back. In reality, this forum is a resource which is incredibly valuable to me especially when I was considering what Bitcoin startup to create. Through these posts I'd like to keep the community informed of our progress as we work towards improving Bitcoin's growing ecosystem and share our startup's journey along the way. P.s. A lot of people still ask me about the trading bots I used to run which are covered on Coindesk's article here: http://www.coindesk.com/how-to-trade-bitcoins-bot-software-sleep/FYI, I learned a lot of the techniques from the contents of this forum and even shared some of its inner workings on here too . I no longer run them but I'm happy to answer questions about them for the curious.

Why are fees quite high?
As the Bitcoin trading space has become more competitive, average fees have fallen and we have been slow to respond to this change. However we have recently decided to revise our fee structure - you can expect a formal announcement very, very soon

Does it upgrade version, I saw it was not like this last time.
Could you integrate LakeBTC into platform? I just think btc.sx looks a bit like its Laketrader
