As some of you might have heard, there is a new alternative to commonly used cryptocurrency exchanges like Bittrex, who recently stopped allowing anyone to apply for a new account unless a corporate account or by special invite. UPcoin has promised to have a fee that is competitive with other other platforms as well, with a 'maker fee' (buying coin) of .1% and a 'taker fee' (selling coin) of .2%, both better than the .25% Bittrex is taking. Interestingly, they gave a $500.00 exchange fee credit bonus to the first 250,000 subscribers who also completed their survey, but unfortunately that is over (they now have close to 750,000 pre-subscribers).
"Pre-subscribers?" you ask.
Yes. UPcoin is not functioning yet as an exchange but will begin trading when it officially opens as an exchange on March 1st of this year--so, in only 16 days and change from the time of this posting.
So hop on board (link below) and see what's in store. It could be the beginning of a nice ride on a currency based on actual investment rather than a select group of insiders arbitrarily creating more currency by buying bonds on the open market.
