A new crypto-currency trading platform is poised to launch a crowdsale on this coming Saturday, 17 Feb 2017. The trading platform aims to become a bridge serving among the export and novice crypto participants.

The new platform is called Capdax, and the token generation event will have a maximum cap of USD 6.5 million available for whitelisted participants, running for more than four weeks till the token sellout.

The public crowdsale will have a total of 5 tiers, and when one tier has sold out, the following tier will be immediately activated, until all tokens are sold. Each tier consists of 1,300 ethereums based on USD price.

 

System testing for better security

After the public crowdsale, Capdax will then engage in Application Programming Interface (API) operational beta testing on the exchange backend and followed by the private beta testing on the exchange frontend system during the first quarter of 2018.

By Q2 2018, with sufficient testing on the exchange system, Capdax will go for official exchange launch, complimented with security audits and social trading development of the system.

The relentless testing on its system is for Capdax to deliver a robust platform that is safe for cryptocurrency participants to trade freely with less possibility of their account being hacked.

“The problems facing current cryptocurrency exchanges is at an all-time high.” stated Capdax on its whitepaper.

According to the whitepaper, many large cryptocurrency exchanges fail to service both the expert trader as well as the crypto novice, those who are just getting into the market. Plus, many exchanges faced the risks of being hacked with losses to the cryptocurrency values.

For instance, the list of hacked cryptocurrency exchanges listed from the recent Tokyo-based exchange Coincheck, to South Korea-based exchanges like Youbit and back to the Mt Gox hack where USD 460 million evaporated virtually into thin air.

 

Clear policies and good services to venture forward

Facing such threats, Capdax’s whitepaper has identified a series of areas for improvement to combat the dangers of running an exchange.

“Superb customer service, clear policies, and fully audited security standards create the necessary user trust, and an innovative copy-trading feature allows traders to seamlessly follow the portfolios of others automatically.” stated the whitepaper.

To facilitate user friendliness, Capdax will adopt a basic mode for newcomers to the crypto-currency world with less cluttered information and trading indicators. For the more experienced users, they can opt for “Expert Mode” where ticker data are streamed in real time, with detailed graphs and live trade feeds.

 

Security as the first priority

Perhaps security issue is the number one concern for all crypto-currency traders nowadays, given the bad industry reputations of data breaches among the various exchanges. For Capdax, the exchange system has been built from scratch with security in mind.

Capdax will also invest in “strong deep cold storage” system that kept user funds secure. Thus, only funds that needed immediately withdrawals will be placed at “hot wallet” where funds are kept at adequate level as withdrawals and deposits are processed.

While no system can ever be considered 100% secure, especially when one is connected to the Internet, Capex will run scans periodically of its balances and compares them to user wallets to identify any discrepancies.

Overall, all users and investors alike will want their investment to be safe and free from hacking. Just like storing valuables in a vault, where neither thieves nor robbers break in to steal. Thus, Capdax is literally using this model in enabling investors’ fund to generate more income and values in a safe environment.
