Hi Jim,

How does your business model work? How can I buy a share of Microsoft using your technology?

Thanks

 

We won't have single stock equities on our platform (at least not at launch or this year). But we'll make futures contracts available on the platform, like WTI or gold.

On our testnet we have the most liquid crypto contracts so feel free to test it out yourself.

 

I just used equity as example, WTI is even better. Today I send order to my broker to buy 1 Oil contract and within fraction of a second I get filled. It is part of my portfolio now. Can you please cover how your platform will work in this example.

 

It works the same way, you login to the exchange, deposit cryptocurrency as collateral and then place an order through an order ticket. We have portfolio margin too on the platform. Hope that answers your question.

 

Do I understand you correctly that one can use bitcoin to trade bitcoin? What good is it for?

 

This is a derivatives exchange. So you can use bitcoin to trade all kinds of contracts and products - altcoins (other crypto), equity futures, commodity futures, etc. Bitcoin is simply one of the forms of currency/collateral usable on the exchange.

 

In case of Oil, will my order go to CME and get filled there?

 

Nope - your order is filled on our exchange.

 

But then it is not a real purchase or sell of commodity, more like virtual game. Am I missing anything?
