Due to abuse, we are suspending the asset/share transfer service on GLBSE.
Users will still be able to transfer bitcoin between accounts instantly and freely.
Over recent days it has become clear that a number of the users of the
GLBSE are either not aware of, or haven't read, the exchange's Terms Of
Service.
To combat this problem we are providing official notice of the existence
of our TOS, which can be found
here .
We have also cleaned them up and formalized them a bit in an effort to
make them clearer and easier for our users to understand. No substantive
changes have been made from the previous version.
In the near future we will also be requiring existing and new users to
perform a one-time acknowledgment and acceptance of these TOS during the
login and account sign-up process. This will be repeated at any point
that our TOS change in the future to ensure that all users maintain
awareness of our policies.
GLBSE is a Bitcoin denominated capital market. Further details can be
found at
