Next point to be concerned about was the team. I can only see 3 people on your site. Are they all of the team? Moreover, these three people are only listed as names, photos, and brief story about them. Is it possible to have concrete evidences that those people are real, name matches with pictures, experiences matches with track records, and so on. You know that I mean their social medias profile. As far as we know, pictures can be easily taken from internet.

Yes, there are only the 3 of us, but we are more than enough to manage everything once the funds are collected, as I implied earlier an exchange is nowhere near an impossible task to accomplish. Advisors other than legal counsel are not necessary, there are hundreds of examples of how to do, or how not to do something on an exchange. It is obvious how the business side works and how the tech behind all that works.
What we need is to accelerate the process and involve contracted developers to deliver on time. By the launch of the exchange, we are going to assemble a decent support team (which will be expanded whenever the platform requires it) a handful of people for marketing and PR purposes, and a team for the 24/7 maintenance of the platform.

We are aware of the scams that are using fake pictures and names, but the thing is that we are not really active on social media, it's not our world. We don't have twitter or linkedin (mostly because most of its' features are not necessary for us, but it is detailed in the F.A.Q and some blog posts as well) accounts and our facebook profile is for private use mostly, not very valuable business wise. (We are using our facebook profiles to advertise on the platform and to identify ourselves on ICO listing sites, but we believe it's not very valuable, not to talk about the constant friend request we are getting from people, who wish to sell their services to us.)
We have asked in these posts and in our F.A.Q answer that if any of our potential investors have a concern about our legitimacy, don't be afraid to confront us and to suggest a way to identify ourselves. We are open to sharing our identity, as long as it doesn't interfere with our personal lives.
We have thought to make a video, but until there is no real demand for it, we can afford to wait for a better possibility to come up. For example, you might have an idea.

Well... If I may suggest, fighting against a stolen internet picture is as easy as taking a picture of the whole team together with the logo of your company visible, preferably held by hand. In a case of fake picture, it'll be almost impossible for the suspect (namely, you) to ask for those people whose pictures you stole to take a group picture for your sake.

Some people will still argue that you might be using real pictures of yourself but the names are not real, and I also has an idea for this, but I think it's too far stretched that I doubt you want to trouble yourself doing it. So maybe just the group picture for now and we resort to this "still unrevealed" idea of mine when the needs surfaced. Also, if the group picture is good enough, it actually can be used as an evidence on your site too

A group photo is indeed a good idea. We are going to take one between the holidays if things go well.
