You are clearly creating an exchange. Why else would you need Accounts!?!?

Are you launching Bitcoin.com like TradeHill was going to?

Any significantly advanced cryptocurrency is indistinguishable from Ponzi Tulips.

Sad indeed.
I don't really get all the secrecy. Some people will announce things months ahead and hype continuously. Throw us a bone or at least let us play twenty questions.

The vagueness is better than total silence though, right?

Nope, nor are we becoming an exchange
