Hey guys I am posting this thread to gain some attention and liquidity for this exchange. I just noticed this message from march 26 2016: "HZxchange is relaunching these days, starting with some trusted assets and re-adding the coins that were listed before one by one."
It has been around for a few years I think; and you can buy equity or shares of the exchange on the horizon blockchain under asset id #: 17828408937649813496

About:
HZxCHANGE is a distributed cryptocurrency exchange on the Horizon Platform.
Unlike traditional exchanges, where trading takes place on servers connected to the wallets used for storage, HZxCHANGE uses the Horizon blockchain instead. As well as being much more secure, it's also totally transparent and trades can be verified by anybody.
All transactions are signed in your browser, the passphrase is never sent to a remote server. Your funds are stored on a multisig address, making it impossible for a single admin to run away with a wallet. The signatures are held by well-known and trusted members of the HZ (or the coin's) community. There's no public facing server a hacker could target, and even if he finds one that's not enough to get access to any coin. The asset balances are snapshotted regularly, so if someone breaches the issuers account we'll just switch to another asset.
HZxchange still is a proof of concept. A lot of manual work is needed to add and maintain coins. There are plans to automate all those processes and end up with a real decentralized exchange, but it will take a lot of effort to reach that.
