I am someone who bought in to the pre-ICO, but then they did away with the escrow service and refunded my money. I have not reinvested at this point. Even though they say they will refund, and even though they actually DID refund my money, I would really prefer to have an escrow service or a multi-sig wallet. I would not have invested initially except that they had a reliable escrow, and I confirmed that person's involvement. To reinvest at this point would be to hand money over to an unknown identity with only my hope that I will get it back if I ask.
What I love about this project is the profit-sharing model--I think that is just brilliant! I also love that they want to become the world's leading exchange. I think with the right team they could reach this goal. But there is the Achilles's heel--we simply do not know the team! We don't know how many people are working on reaching their goals, what problems they are running into, or anything else.
For a stark contrast to WCX, consider the Irish start-up Mingo:
https://mingocoin.com/ They are having a pre-ICO tomorrow and the team membesr have been super-active for days on Telegram
https://web.telegram.org/#/im?p=@GoMingoCoin and will be live-streaming for 24 hours on YouTube (starting in 3 hours):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X0fMImhnp28 and they have a working project (a messaging app) with 50,000 who have already downloaded the app and are using it. They have partnerships, which they discuss, which will potentially give them access to 1.5 million new customers and have a plan for educating the masses about cryptocurrencies. I'm not saying do not invest in WCX and I am not saying do invest in Mingo, but I am pointing out the big difference that openness makes!
