WARNING TO ALL WHO ARE USING OR ARE GOING TO USE STOCKS.EXCHANGE -- DO NOT USE IT YOU WILL BE SCAMMED --
So the CEO from Stocks.Exchange which is having alot of issues (scam) with people depositing and withdrawing coins and alot of glitchy API entries on their exchange has promoted this scam VESA ICO through his own Stocks.exchange platform by sending out an email to invest in this shit.
If we go look at the CEO from Stocks.Ex his old twitter profile we can look at a certain post:
https://twitter.com/vkurylovych/status/20733090372 the one and only reply on there already refers to a scam pulled with a platform called livirtual.com
The two tweets that are also still visible on his twitter profile just underneath the one i just linked contain the following messages:

Never feel sorry for people
Now here comes the interesting stuff. The same guy who is CEO of Stocks.Ex and a Dev or whatever he calls himself from Paragoncoin which is also an ICO which hasn't delivered what it has promised AND can also be traded on the very same exchange the CEO DEV SCAMMER whatever you want to call it hosts.
If we go take a look at the current twitter page of Stocks.Exchange
https://twitter.com/StocksExchangeR and we click open any recent tweet, and with recent we can go back at least 2 weeks from the day this post was created, you will see announcements of certain things going wrong, and being fixed (while they aren't fixed). We see people complaining about stuck funds for over 10 days while the blockchain explorers show those coins already confirmed hundreds if not thousands of times and even being redistributed to other wallets, we can start to scratch our head again can't we?
If we go look back into their tweets and check this one out:
https://twitter.com/StocksExchangeR/status/951796262910783488 we can even see Stocks.Exchange blaming Coinsmarkets for creating issues with Stocks.exchange this is by far the lamest excuse I have seen in 2018 and should ring another warning bell.
So the person or persons behind all this are either scammers or complete idiots who have no idea how to work with computers. I doubt it's the second one. If we go check the SE CEO lead Scammer's profile on Linkedin we can see calls himself a "jack of all trades"
https://www.linkedin.com/in/vadym-kurylovych/ while he's actually a trader of all jacks.
What else can be said about Stocks.Exchange? Well there will be liquidity issues if there aren't already. I myself can confirm that the exchange has had multiple reports of double deposits or withdraws. Now for those who are on the receiving end of those double deposits and withdraws it's their lucky day. But in the end someone will pay for this and imo the exchange won't be touching their own funds to keep it solvent. The most flagrant mistake made by SE that has come to my ears is someone who tried to withdraw 2 BTC and received that amount 3 times. Now you can say they were playing Santa Claus and they are good guys, but in the big perspective of things this should not happen and it might be the first signs of things going down hill pretty fast for this exchange and everything tied to it.
On to other side there are hundreds if not thousands of users who are having issues not receiving their coins for a period of over 10 days without a reply to their support tickets, emails or even on the Stocks Twitter profile when a tweet is replied to by angry customers nobody answers them with a satisfying answer, there isn't even an answer at all from SE. Just tweet after tweet that they are fixing the issues and when they claim something is fixed, we can see that it's broken again 5 minutes later meaning it wasn't fixed at all.
Any other exchange would have been called out for scam a long time ago, but somehow they manage to keep fooling people and sucking in more users who they ar stealing money from. Imagine you had made a trade on SE right after New Year, you made some good profit and are now ready to cash that out. Oops withdraw issue, ongoing for 2 weeks, meantime the market dipped and people are unable to sell their profits and are now even losing money because the guys behind this ICO and other scam ICO's are running a dodgy Exchange that will end up insolvent and running off with people's money.
So for the people who were ready to invest in this next Scam from the same guys, please check the facts I present to you and think twice. Also those who are thinking about depositing funds to Stocks.Exchange, my advise to you is to look elsewhere. Is your coin of interest only listed on that exchange, make sure the Dev team from your favourite coin get's to read this post, let them research it and make a move out of there once they are convinced that what I tell you here is the truth.
Your sincerely H055Y
PS: Vadym Kurylovych you better don't show your face in public, because alot of angry traders would like to rip your face off.
All paranoia aside, almost every exchange is having issues. They are not prepared for the influx of new users. I have been using stocks.exchange for a few months now with no issues, but lately, it has gotten really slow.
