Does this have anything to do with the almighty game cracker codex? I don't understand then why the using of his name, also, exchanges been ending up in scam since beginning of bitcoin, the great gox, cryptsy now cryptopia the list is pretty big, while I see that a new exchange needs promotion i still dont see how it can prove its legit. And why it feels it is a coin, lol. However all I can do is promise that each single user participating in this campaing will be negative trusted if it ends up being a scam.
Ill just quote myself from the other thread.
Thanks for raising your concerns and letting us know.
First of all,
CODEX is not affiliated with any other projects named “codex” and the game cracker you have mentioned in particular. Why CODEX is named CODEX? There are several reasons to come up with such a naming:
1) CODEX, unlike many other exchanges, had its own code and engine built from scratch. This is what resembles the CODE part.
2) Codex as a definition in general means a book, from Latin “caudex”. As you might guess, it resembles an order book at the exchange.
Second, yes.
The latest news about exchanges being hacked, closed etc put a shadow on the whole exchanges’ business. But we are sure there are legit businesses. Why to create a new exchange, you might ask? This was a dream of one of our investors. He dreamed about own exchange for a long time, and crypto on the horizon made it even more viable to come true. We do an extra security measures too. We use EdDSA cryptography, so we don’t store API secrets unlike other exchanges - and improve.
Third,
how we can prove we are legit? When launched we understood there will be concerns. We can’t disclose all the measures we take to confirm our legitimacy, so, please, stay tuned and we will bring the good news in March-April. Meanwhile, let us help with a research that may open up our roots.
1) CODEX obtained all necessary licenses, check them here:

why do we need a promotion? We think it’s pretty OK to start a bounty campaign. We are not the first, we are not the last. We like to create opportunities for the crypto community during the bear market as we are all in it together. We appreciate those who share a word about us. Previously, we successfully conducted a BTC giveaway and did all the payments:
