Does anyone here remember MCXnow crypto exchange?

in #bitcoin9 years ago

I just received my first reward from Steemit, and suddenly had a flashback to a few years ago when I was starting on my crypto journey. Somehow I found out about www.mcxnow.com, a crypto trading exchange for bitcoin and about a dozen other smaller crypto coins. The exchange's owner, developer, programmer, customer service and marketing was one guy from Australia who went by the moniker of RealSolid (RS). He was also very active on Twitter, and I believe his account is still up.

There was a "troll box" where crypto geeks and traders could chat, and you would receive "mcx bucks" based on your activity in the troll box. The conversations were quite lively and unregulated, except when RS was on he would block people for periods of time if they ticked him off. I learned a lot from the hours upon hours I spent reading and chatting.

Unfortunately, the pressures of being a one man show eventually became too much for RS, and he closed the site. Then he opened it back up a few months later, only to close it again shortly thereafter. To his credit, RS gave everyone notice that the site was going down about a month ahead of time, and gave time for everyone to move their crypto elsewhere, he didn't pull a Mt Gox.

Even thought it's a long shot, as I reflected on those many memories, I was wondering if anyone else here happened to share the experience of MCXnow?
