Just got an e-mail update from WCX (31 December 2017) regarding the WCX project.  The e-mail contains the progress WCX is making and the product launch even before the ICO sale.

WCX: Global low-cost digital currency exchange offering a pro experience with 10x lower fees.

# Project Update

Dear WCX Community,

WCX recently crossed **1.3 million** sign-ups. That’s more sign-ups than most exchanges active today.

Every month, WCX is visited by more than 2 million people, almost half of whom are from non-English speaking countries — which speaks to the global nature of the project.

When WCX was announced just a few months ago, our vision was to create a global digital currency exchange that is secure, reliable, low-cost, and easy-to-use. Today, that vision is almost a reality.

As we look forward to the launch, we wanted to take a moment to express how grateful we are to our contributors, subscribers, and every member of our community. From everyone at WCX, thank you!

### Public Launch

The product is feature-complete. Our team is performing integration and load testing, as well as hardening and vulnerability testing, to make sure the exchange is safe, secure, and ready to handle millions of transactions. We’re planning to launch WCX to everyone on Saturday, February 10.

As we mentioned in our previous blog post, we’d initially planned to serve around 30,000 traders with the systems we had built. As of today, the number of people who have signed up for WCX is more than forty times that.

To ensure a secure, low-cost, and reliable experience for all users, we redesigned our systems and rebuilt our team from the ground up to meet this newfound demand.

This new effort pushed back the initially planned launch date. You can take a peek at our new backend systems in our [API Reference](https://docs.wcex.com/).

From the very beginning, we’ve been focused on bringing our community the best and most secure product, even if that meant delaying the public launch. We’d rather launch a great product late than a mediocre one before it’s ready.

### ICO Planning

The WCX tokens offered in our presale program (limited quantity) have been selling out on a daily basis. As promised, we’ll be holding a broader token sale to sell the remaining tokens about four weeks after the exchange launches to the public.

Leading up to the token sale, we’ll be offering detailed insights into our company roadmap and future plans concerning product and marketing direction.

### WCXT & USDP

As a reminder, WCXT tokens will begin trading on WCX approximately two weeks after the end of the token sale described above. WCXT will be issued as ERC20 tokens on the Ethereum blockchain. The trading pairs available will be WCXT/BTC, WCXT/ETH, and WCXT/USDP.

### Introducing USDP

USDP is a new digital currency that is pegged to the value of the US Dollar. It allows you to convert out of crypto and hold funds without being affected by volatility and without needing to use a bank.

It’s available initially only to WCX users. More details will be posted at launch.

### New Benefits

New benefits have been announced recently for WCXT holders:

* WCX will use up to 20% of the exchange’s profits to buy back WCXT at market price every quarter, until 50% of all WCXT sold are bought back by WCX. The WCXT bought through this buyback program will be destroyed, hence reducing the available supply of WCXT.
* You’ll be able to use WCXT to recoup rebates on fees and get discounts on future products such as margin trading.
* You’ll be able to use WCXT as a base token for the decentralized exchange planned to launch at a future date.

We appreciate your patience as we work to launch the exchange in a safe, secure, and scalable manner. We are proud to have every one of you as a member of our community!

– The WCX Team

# Coinbase

I buy my Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Ethereum, and Litecoin through [Coinbase](https://www.coinbase.com/join/576692abac0fae434c000c9b). For me, buying them through Coinbase is fast and convenient.  Plus, you will get $10 in Bitcoin when you signup at [Coinbase using this link](https://www.coinbase.com/join/576692abac0fae434c000c9b) and you buy $100 or more of crypto-currency.

The reason I like Coinbase is that they stand up to an over-reaching government: [Coinbase Obtains Partial Victory Over IRS](https://blog.coinbase.com/coinbase-obtains-partial-victory-over-irs-dac041db59a3), 29 November 2017
