Your site still doesn't show any legal information (imprint). That will for sure keep people with bigger amounts away. Nobody will transfer 20-30 btc without knowing who are the people behind that site and where the company is exactly located (full address).
Give me one good reason why this hasn't been done right from the beginning.
Cheers
By the end of today we should know how to proceeed in this regard. The reason why did not do it earlier is because we want to choose a proper form of organization and we are going to have a meeting with a lawyer about this topic today. Probably you are not aware about the Swiss law but for example a GmbH (similar as an Ltd.) costs CHF 20'000 to set up ($22'000), therefore we carefully evaluate our options. At least an "about us" will follow very shortly.
Still nothing. No Information.
I am just waiting for the first "hack" aka inside job.
Are you really swiss?

Swiss time

That is wrong by 1 hour! GMT +1 is the actual time in switzerland, not GMT+0!
Good evening! First I want to say: We have been operating for almost a year now, longer than most exchanges out there. We are 100 % solvent, so we must have done something right.
The about page was actually planned a long time ago and has been post-poned with the new front-end that has been delayed for over 6 months already. We do understand the general problem in this matter and the fear in the community. Many bad things happened in the past and this space despereately needs more regulation (I know some of you don't like to hear this), in order to protect its customers. I pushed now for a release of an about page in the old design.
To substentiate our Swiss authenticity here are some online references:
We have been mentioned recently in one of the major Swiss newspapers (
NZZ) and are also alumni of the Swiss startup initiative called
Venture Kick.
We do not try to hide our identities and we also have no bad intentions (what is harder to prove for sure). We are in touch with the Swiss financial market supervisory authority (Finma), as Bitcoin is considered as a foreign currency here. We are not only known by the authorities, also by the local Bitcoin community, business partners, friends, family etc. Life in Switzerland is good enough as an engineer, and probably even better without stealing Bitcoins. Only the founders have access to the wallets and we have know each other for 8+ years.
The time is indeed wrong, I forwarded the issues to the tech guys. I assume this has something to do with the daylight savings time or with our recent server migration, because it used to be correct. I think the only thing you could blame us for is that we are bad at marketing.
I hope this changes your opinion. Let me know if there are still some doubts.
