Hi Bitcointalk,
As a bit of an introduction, we are
Bitspark and yesterday we launched our exchange to the world. We are an incubated company of the Cyberport, one of Hong Kong's largest startup incubators and part of their incubation program. At Bitspark we are focused on fixing some of the issues around in the market at the moment regarding trust, transparency, security, liquidity and ease of use. To demonstrate our commitments so far, here is a summary of what we offer:
*We are based on Open Source software via the Peatio project
https://github.com/peatio/peatio*Our reserves are auditable by our customers.
*We currently support 6 coins: Bitcoin, Litecoin, Dogecoin, Blackcoin, Peercoin, Cloakcoin and will be adding more weekly.
*Our company incorporation documents and real office address are available in the About Us section of our website.
*We have been vetted and are backed by the Cyberport one of Hong Kong's largest startup institutions and incubation programs.
*We have also launched a coin-switching profitability based mining pool Sparkpool
www.sparkpool.net which is based on the Open Source NOMP project
https://github.com/zone117x/node-open-mining-portal/*Design is a key part of our products and we believe bitcoin must be easy if it is get widespread adoption. Our UI has been designed with this in mind and we have prototypes of a number of other exciting products already- Our Merchant processing and Remittance services.
*Always looking to improve this is our MVP and we will be progressing swiftly pushing updates and getting feedback from the community.
At the moment we are Crypto-only and Hong Kong offers a friendly regulatory environment for us to be based in. Unlike some of our competitors we are actually based here and take part in a number of bitcoin and startup events. I'd invite members of the bitcoin and crypto community to come try us out and let us know what you think as your input is valuable in us determining what products and services we can bring you next! Next stop, Moon.
Thanks
Bitspark Team
