what will happen in case of domain seizure? are you on multiple servers?
It's not a .com, so in theory the US shouldn't seize it.
The site's spread across multiple servers, but not multiple geographic locations.
The servers are backed up offsite frequently. But honestly, if they're seized by the gov't wherever they're located, we have bigger problems than getting back online and at that point issuers are most likely going to need to use their regularly issued asset holder lists to transition to another site.
Let's hope it never comes to that, and we'll do everything we can to avoid it, but you never know.
Cheers.
How would I go about proving ownership of certain stocks if the site was taken down? Is there something in my account that I should be downloading on a regular basis?
No, the asset issuers get lists sent to them every 12 hours, so if you're in the list, you're good to go. This does suck somewhat if you made a trade in the meantime so I have been exploring other options for users to be able to prove trades using the emails that get sent out. Basically will require the site to gpg sign trade emails I suspect.
What I haven't figured out yet is how to give you a gpg signed copy of your trade that the issuer could use as a diff against their copy of the asset holders. For them to be able to use it, the copy of your trade would need to have both your account and the other user's account in the trade data. I can't really send out info about the other user, so that's kind of where I'm stuck right now.
Cheers.
