A new decentralized Bitcoin
Bitcoin Ultimate (BTCU) is a new decentralized cryptocurrency that will bring many features and benefits along the way. The idea is to have a better Bitcoin and make Satoshi's vision into a reality.
Bitcoin Ultimate members will be able to mine, stake and quickly transfer your BTCU to anyone, anywhere in the world at a low cost. And once available, all community members will also be able to trade and use BTCU to purchase goods and services (Merchants, contact us for partnership inquiries).
Intro
In our view, there are fundamentally two different types of exchanges: the ones that deal with fiat currency; and the ones that deal purely in crypto. It is the latter one that we will focus on. Even though they are small now, we strongly believe that pure crypto exchanges will be bigger, many times bigger, than fiat based exchanges in the
near future. With your help, Bitcoin Ultimate will build a world-class crypto exchange, powering the future of crypto finance.
Problems
Some of the current crypto exchanges suffer from a number of problems:
⦁ Poor technical architecture
Many exchanges are “put together quickly”, by good tech people, but who have little or no experience in finance or in operating an exchange. They often choose the simplest approach to get the system up and running. While this may work well in the beginning, as traffic grows, the system will not able to handle the increased load. Exchange systems need to be engineered from
the ground up with security, efficiency, speed, and scalability in mind. This often slows down the initial development, but is critical for long-term success. Our team has decades of combined experience building and maintaining world class financial systems that shape the economy. We understand how these systems are built from the ground up.
⦁ Insecure platform
There are hundreds of exchanges that went down due to being hacked . 1
Bitcoin Ultimate is built to high standards, audited, and penetration tested. We have experience building financial systems to the highest security standards and
strive to ensure security first.
⦁ Poor market liquidity
Professional traders and normal users are significantly affected by this. Having a shallow orderbook means high slippage when trading, which is very expensive for traders. Getting miners, institutional investors and large traders into a new exchange is a chicken and egg problem, and requires a team with deep industry resources.
⦁ Poor customer service
Traders are a different breed when it comes to users. Understanding the trader mentality is vital for running a successful exchange. Money is literally on-the-line. Many exchanges service traders as if they were running a social media site. A 3-second delay in seeing your friends’ status update would hardly be noticed, but on an exchange, the same would be unacceptable, resulting in a torrent of user complaints.
In additional to the technology stack, Bitcoin Ultimate is built with service in mind. Bitcoin Ultimate shares support responsibilities across the entire staff and company. When a trader has a problem, they get an answer directly from someone who knows the system and not someone reading from a script.
⦁ Poor internationalization and language support
Blockchains have no borders. Most exchanges focus only on one language or one country.
Our international multi-lingual team has extensive working experience in North America, Europe and Asia, and we are able to smoothly support the global market.
Matching Engine
Our matching engine is capable of sustaining 300,000 orders / second, making
Bitcoin Ultimate one of the fastest exchanges in the market today. You can be certain, on our exchange, that your orders will never be stuck due to the matching engine being
overwhelmed.
