The 24hours global trading volume of all crypto/fiat and crypto/crypto pairs is around 11B USD. Exchanges that successfully attract high volumes to their platform are extremely profitable. Sponsored Links
CrypStock is launching an exchange that potentially will offer its users the best price on the market for the coins traded on its platform. CrypStock will offer its users a merged order book of 30+ exchanges.
It is not an easy task to offer traders fast execution order opportunities from tens of exchanges.
To do so, exchange funds need to be distributed on all connected exchanges before the trade executes, and a sophisticated trading system needs to be developed.
A pilot version of the exchange is expected to launch in November 2018.
CrypStock is currently in its presale stage.
It is aiming to raise a total of 50M USD. A high cap is needed to fund the exchange structure described above.
ICS token holders will receive 30% of the exchange income via ETH, in a monthly distribution.
The team is highly motivated and has been working hard on the project for the past year.
Let’s start with our evaluation! CrypStock Exchange Features Merged Order Book – 30+ Exchanges – potentially the best price on the market
The CrypStock platform is fundamentally different from other systems that offer users the ability to conduct transactions on different exchanges from one account. The concept is based on the fact that traders perform transactions in a system, which is a smart intermediary between its own order books and other exchanges. At the same time, a combination of order books and usage of the systems own funds on the different exchanges gives users the opportunity to immediately execute their trades on all connected exchanges.
The following example shows a scheme of the combination of orders and different exchanges and a comparison of the average price:
The following is a made-up example in order to show the concept of the merged order book and its advantages:
A buyer wants to buy 3 ETH. We will show the merged order book use-case with only 3 exchanges.
ETH/USDT average prices on 3 different exchanges:
Buying price of 3 ETH on Exchange A or B or C= 602 USDT
Buying price of 3 ETH on CrypStock= 600 USDT
The example above shows that if a user wishes to buy 3 ETH on each of the exchanges A/B/C, he is expected to pay an average price of 602 USDT for each ETH.
Using a merged order book of the 3 exchanges the user will be able to buy the 3 ETH at an average price of 600 USDT. CrypStock Market Making – Higher exchange profits
We will use the previous example to explain the market making mechanism of the CrypStock system that allows potentially higher profits for the exchange and the token holders (ICS token holders earn 30% of the exchange income, explained later).
The average price of 3 ETH on crypto exchanges A, B or C will be 602 USDT.
The combined order book of CrypStock allows you to reduce the average price to 600 USDT. However, to receive more profits, the trader will be able to buy the 3 ETH for 601 USDT. One USDT is earned by the system (and ICS token holders).
To conclude the market making function, the merged order book on the CrypStock exchange will offer a slightly higher price than the lowest price available on all of the connected exchanges. However, the price will still be the lowest price on the market. Block Trading
Block trading is a service that will be offered to VIP traders (high volume traders). In order to get the lowest price possible on a high-volume trade, a trader must usually split his buying order into smaller chunks and buy its position over time and not in one purchase.
CrypStock offers an agent that will execute the trade over time, and in small portions, for large volume traders. By combining the merged order book and the block trading function, a trader will potentially get the lowest price on the market for a large position.
Below is a comparison of the results of purchasing ETH for BTC equivalent to $1,000,000. The calculation is based on real data from 12 exchanges (09/03/2018 15:00 – 16:40). The diagram was taken from the CrypStock Whitepaper.
Merged A – The potential profit of buying $1 Million through a merged order book vs Kraken/Bittrex exchange.
Merged B – The potential profit of buying $1 Million through a merged order book and the Block trading function vs Kraken/Bittrex exchange.
The example shows that option 1 (Merged A) saves 1.
2-1.6% for the user compared to direct purchase, and option 2 (Merged B) saves 1.7-2.1%.
According to CrypStock’s estimation transactions of $10,000,000 can benefit by more than 5% if they use option 2 (Merged B). T4T Token – CrypStock USD backed token – Lower barrier to entry
T4Ts are tokens that are issued by the CrypStock exchange and are backed 1:1 by USD.
Users of the exchange will be able to purchase T4Ts using different types of payment methods. This purchase process will be monitored by trusted third party entities.
The T4T will be traded vs ETH, BTC and other pairs.
T4Ts will allow new traders to easily enter the crypto market and to join the CrypStock exchange. Road Map

Project potential
The 24 hours crypto exchange volume in recent times is ~11B USD equivalent.
Crypto exchanges that attract large volumes are making huge profits from token listings and exchange fees paid by users.
Since the recent crypto boom in 2017, many exchange projects are launching. Though a merged order book of tens of exchanges makes sense, there is no project that offers this in a way that is efficient enough. CrypStock exchange will potentially offer fast execution trades from their platform to the best prices on the market, this advantage should give CrypStock exchange a great advantage over its competitors.
Token Use
Most ICOs release utility tokens as compensation for contributions. Usually, the correlation between the success of the project and the token price is limited.
ICS tokens are used to pay fees on the exchange (50% discount compared to other payment methods).
The big advantage of holding ICS tokens is the profit sharing. 30% of the exchange income is paid monthly via ETH to the token holders. We like this approach, this should create a great incentive to hold ICS. Cons
Project success has a highly significant reliance on the amount of funding.
A large amount of funding is needed for the project to successfully offer its main advantage – the lowest price on the market.
In order to offer fast execution trades on all future crypto pairs, CrypStock own money has to be distributed on all offered exchanges. The project will use a highly sophisticated algorithm to determine the right amount of funding needed on each of the exchanges. CryptoPotato ICO Evaluation – result
