Bitcurex.com - old thread

What we would like to do in the nearest future:
   1.   More markets USD, GBP

I like your method of doing things. I look forward to when GBP is an option in your exchange.

Thank you.

We are sorry we are unable to to provide you with 4 markets at the beggining, but we would like to take things slower but precisely. So when we hit to 4 markets, all transaction would be automatic or semi automatic with different authentication options available. In addition we would like to have Multilingual support first, not only limited to english, or at least different user interface language available.

Best Regards

If all is above board, this is really good news. Now, is there a reason Gox won't issue cards you can load with BTC?

To be honest I don't know about MtGox plans in the future. I can only discuss our plans for the future of BCC and the Bitcurex.com

Best Regards.

[Bro]

perfect
I will try it out with a small amount

[kiba]

Bitcurex, you did not answer my question about 2 factor authentication methods.

[minimalB]

I hope they implement at least Google Authenticator.

I'm looking forward to multi-currency card. Might be very useful if you travel a lot.

Bitcurex, you did not answer my question about 2 factor authentication methods.

I'm terribly sorry for that.

For now the security of personal account is the e-mail address. Insted of accepting each time every buy/sell order and or withdrawal, you have to edit your account - which requires e-mail confirmation to set the withdrawal BTC address and Bank account number. Once it is done you are then able to make a withdrawal. So to change any data you need to know: bitcurex login password, have the acces to your e-mail which was provided to register the account (so password to e-mail address).
So in short only predefined accounts by You would be credited if someone brake and enter your account. You can read that in the first topic.

Also you can lock your account. Which means that you can prevent any changes to your account at bitcurex.com. You can lock all data or some data. Once you will lock your account you wont be even able to change your account's password, so even if someone will get an acces to your e-mail and bitcurex account won't be able to change any predefined settings. The only way to retriev a password is by admins. In that case it would be very hard for potential thief to trick us that he is someone he is not. We wouldn't want to tell here how it will be performed for security reasons, each case will be individual.

We also would like to implement SMS notification for transaction, as soon as possible.

Best Regards

I recommend Yubikeys and/or Google Authenticator.

We will think about other protection. We have SMS notification in mind and Security Tokens or one time passwords.






We are sorry, but we are suffering an problem with our e-mail server. Messages might be delayed. We dint anticipated this much interest, we are happy there is but we are not happy with the problem. We are currently working to resolve this issue, as soon as possible.

Once again terribly sorry for the inconvenience.


Best Regards

We will think about other protection.

Has everyone involved with the exchange gone through a criminal record check?

That would probably be a first.

I'm.. I don't know what to say to that question. I know everything about every person involved with Bitcurex.com.
But it is a goog idea once we will be employing someone from outside to work for the Bitcurex.com support.

Every person that is involved in bitcurex.com, have no criminal record. We dont hire anyone from outside, now we are all friends that we know each other very well.

On the site it says "Max balance per year" for the cards. USD is $3,500.

Does this mean that not more than $3,500 can be put on the card in total for a year? So if I load it with $3,500, then spend $3,500, I can't load any more until next year?

Unfortunately yes. Once the $3,500 is spent, another 3,500 can be credited to next year. We do not have power over it, this is the condition by card provider.
We will try to make negotiate better conditions for it, but at this moment we cannot do anything about.

[arklan]

pity. that's quite a downer. i suppose we could just use multiple cards, if we needed more then 3500 a year.

Yes you've absolutely got to get rid of that limit! It's fine to have a limit of $3,500 at any given time, but for a whole year? Man I spend more than that on coffee

Is this separate from https://vircurex.com/?

Hehe. We will try to do that. But You can always have more than one card.


PS. We do not have anything to do with Vircurex.

Thanks, I will keep track of how your company does, this is very few in the British Pound (GPP) market at the moment.

Any plans expanding into more exotic territories? Aka countries that do not yet have access to Gox for almost no fees?
Me in Chile and friends in Iran would be happy.
