About Secure Shell Crypto

What We Do

Secure Shell Crypto is a cryptocurrency brokerage that operates through a secure terminal interface. Unlike traditional web-based exchanges, we provide access via SSH, offering enhanced security and a streamlined trading experience for technically-minded users.

Why Terminal-Based Trading?

Modern web applications are complex and present numerous attack vectors. By using SSH for access, we eliminate:

  • Browser-based vulnerabilities (XSS, CSRF, clickjacking)
  • Phishing attacks through fake websites
  • Session hijacking via browser exploits
  • Malicious browser extensions

Supported Cryptocurrencies

We currently support trading in:

  • Bitcoin (BTC) - The original cryptocurrency
  • Ethereum (ETH) - Smart contract platform
  • Solana (SOL) - High-performance blockchain

How It Works

  1. Connect - Use SSH to connect to our servers
  2. Register - Create your account through the terminal interface
  3. Fund - Add funds via ACH transfer or card payment
  4. Trade - Buy and sell cryptocurrency at competitive rates
  5. Withdraw - Transfer crypto to your personal wallet

Your security is our priority. We implement:

  • End-to-end encryption for all connections
  • Industry-standard password hashing (bcrypt)
  • Account lockout after failed login attempts
  • AML/KYC compliance checks
  • Cold storage for the majority of funds
