What exactly makes this exchange innovative enough to be called "second generation"? Ego trip much? I see nothing new

Care to back up those credentials of yours?

First batch of invites activated and sent out!  Any feedback or comments appreciated!

Geenstijl,

Thanks for signing up!  We are discussing offering shares on cryptostocks but have not come to a decision yet.  We will keep everyone informed if we go that route.

Thanks,
Richie

Spoetnik,

Completely understand the skepticism, there is a lot of churn in the virtual currency space and underhandedness abounds. That’s why we built Bittrex, we are trying to help the community move forward, out of this period of adolescence.

Point by point:

• We have looked at scale extensively, executing well over 300M simulated trades.
• Security is something we take very seriously, but as any security professional will tell you, nothing is perfectly secure. We’ve taken every precaution, deploying a defense in depth strategy and using the latest security techniques.
• It is impossible to guarantee anything but be assured we are professionals with experience and the highest levels of integrity.

Our experience isn't meant to convince anyone of anything. We want to the community to know who we are and be reassured that we aren't random people using off the shelf trading platforms.

Thanks,
Richie

Looks good to me i hope you success!

Looks and reads very promising! I signed up. Any chance for buying shares in this?

hmm another one ?

having pro's involved is really needed but can you handle a large volume if it gets big ?
what about cash reserves so when / *if BTC doubles in value will there be a mystery transaction problem closing withdrawals ?
what about security ? these site a have a bullseye on them and many have been hit.. and the ones still going strong
are for a reason.. Experience.

what guarantee we won't get a random excuse a shut down and missing funds ?

and sorry but a resume alone means squat.. after all, we all tend to lie on our resumes right ? lol

What is Bittrex?

Bittrex is a next generation crypto trading platform built and operated in the United States by crypto enthusiasts with extensive development and security background.  We have over 50 combined years in the computer industry at companies like Microsoft, Amazon, Qualys, and Blackberry and have made careers developing secure and scalable software.  You can learn more about us on our About page.  

Our mission is to deliver the fastest and most secure trading platform for the community.  

We are launching with 10 currencies and will be adding more as we get community feedback.  It is important to us that our platform performs to our high expectations before additional currencies and features are added.  Screenshots below.


Features

• Custom built trading engine - Our custom trading engine was developed from the ground up with speed and scale as the priority.  Orders are executed as soon as they are placed and you will never see a crossed order book or a delay in processing of any trades.
• Secure platform – We employ the latest security technologies to protect you and us.  We use an elastic multi stage wallet strategy ensuring that 80-90% of funds are offline and safe.  Additionally two-factor authentication (through email or google authenticator) is required for all withdrawals and API usage.  We designed everything from the ground up with security in mind.
• Fast deposits and withdrawals - Our fully automated monitoring platform allows for near instantaneous updates on balance, trade, and wallet information.  You will never be left wondering where your funds are or if your deposits are blocked.  Information is always up to date.
• Complete and easy REST API - We have designed the most complete API set for developers to build on our platform.  Our full featured set of APIs allow you to easily deposit, trade, and withdraw to and from our exchange, enabling arbitrage scenarios never possible before.  Bittrex was built with high frequency trading in mind.
