New Cryptocurrency Exchange – Virtex to Launch in Lithuania

Virtex is a new Bitcoin and Litecoin exchange based in Lithuania that will open soon. Inspired by the booming cryptocurrency industry and its revolutionary technology, CEO Paulius Meskauskas, CMO Tomas Andzelis, CRO Mantas Gustys and a team of over 20 other people will be launching their project in the city of Kaunas, the technological and economic center of Lithuania.

In a world of uncertainty, Virtex aims to be strong and open on its dealings, learning from the failures of other exchanges.  They will operate on a 100% liquid basis. Live chat is also available for customers 8 hours per day, 5 days per week, and this customer service offering could be extended to 24/7 if there is high demand during off hours.

In addition, users of Virtex will also be using a Bitcoin trading platform with world-class security features. Secure Sockets Layered technology is used to protect the privacy and security of each individual account, and cold storage wallets are used to keep the majority of funds unavailable to potential hackers. All customer data is stored on dedicated servers that are scanned periodically for suspicious activity, and the integrity of the entire exchange is also monitored by a third party company on a continual basis.

What’s also great is that Virtex will offer many trading options when they open: Users will be able to use the Virtex platform for USD, EUR, NZD, AUD, GBP, CNY, BTC, and LTC. Users will also have a number of funding and withdrawal options such as OKPay, AstroPay, and KADU Collect which will be available at launch. Virtex has plans to expand to more in the future.

Point of clarification: Virtex is not CaVirtEx

Virtex has received a lot of flak for this and so they would just like to clarify that they do not have any relation to the Canadian cryptocurrency exchange known as CaVirtEx.

Virtex aims at approaching an international market (excluding FATF blacklisted countries) and focusing on Europe as well, while CaVirtEx mainly focuses on Canadian customers. Virtex believes that they can coexist with CaVirtex, which is why they have decided to avoid the Canadian market. They are in no way attempting to ‘steal thunder.’

Special offer for pre-launch customers
To grab the attention of Bitcoin traders across the globe, Virtex is offering a 50% discount on trading fees for users who are able to register during the pre-launch campaign. This discount will last for a period of three months.

Virtex is a revolutionary cryptocurrency exchange based in Kaunas, Lithuania that focuses on enhanced customer service and security features for international traders.
