Gatecoin is a new, Hong Kong-based Bitcoin exchange that has finally launched after much anticipation.

This exchange provides a service that is common in non-crypto finance, but is currently unique in the Bitcoin world. Gatecoin will be using segregated bank accounts to protect its users’ funds. Segregated bank accounts separate user funds from money owned by the company; in the event of company insolvency, security breach, or any other situation where the company loses its money, user funds will remain safe in a separate bank account.

Once a transaction has 6 confirmations, it is extremely unlikely that an attacker without at least 50% of the network's computation power would be able to reverse it.

Yeah, always a good idea and gives the customer peace of mind. I think it's the law in the UK now that online bookies have to keep customers funds seperate incase of insolvency. Hopefully this will be applied to exchanges too.

Indeed I wanted to report the post, I though it was another post promoting yet another shitcoin.
Even though this is great, they should have picked a different name.

Thought it was another altcoin but turns out to be the company name. And speaking of segregated bank accounts, just wondering how it would work. Does it mean our btc fund is actually backed by fiat with equivalent amount sitting in another account?
