The code that ran btct.co and litecoinglobal.com is up for sale. The sale will not include the servers, the domains, or any database data, but will include:
- The actual code that ran the site.
- Patch files for the custom patches made to bitcoind / litecoind.
- Example Apache config files.
- MySQL table schema as a *.sql.
- Cron scripts and example crontab files.
- Data import scripts.
- Data export scripts. (including backup scripts)
Most of you probably already know this, but the API functionality is well utilized and has been integrated with many 3rd party projects and sites such as btcjam, various charting sites, several mobile apps, various trade bots, etc. So you will get out of the box compatibility with many of the community's best works.
It can all be run on a single server but for performance and security reasons I recommend the following configuration:
- An apache / php / memcache / cronjob server.
- A hot wallet server. (behind a firewall that only allows incoming access from the webserver)
- A MySQL server. (also behind a firewall that only allows access from the webserver)
- A remote linux box to run the cold wallet / manual withdrawals. (has to run the apache/php stack, plus local cold wallet, should be able to be taken offline between withdrawal processing runs.)
We highly recommend an complete understanding of crypto coin daemons, linux, apache, php, cron, memcache, mysql, encrypted filesystems, network firewalls, etc before trying to operate a site of this complexity and magnitude.
Unless the code is modified to conform with legal requirements of the United States Government, (probably not currently possible, but for instance, if you made up your own currency instead of using an established cryptocurrency it might be legal) any purchaser of the code will have to agree to block US citizens from any site utilizing the code.

If we get a really great offer we may close bidding early. Otherwise I expect bidding to run through Oct 21st, at which time we will evaluate the highest bids and a determination will be made as to whether the purchase price makes sense when weighed against the legal costs associated with assembling a purchase agreement.
Cheers.
