"The platforms provides features to publish projects, trade shares in the projects and pay dividends."

Is running an unregulated "stock market" legal in the U.S. (or whatever country this site is based in)? Is buying and selling shares on such a market legal in the U.S.?

There was something like this a while back that was shut down: https://btct.co/

Maybe this is not based in the US though, judging from the British flag on the language selection.

Well, you can always use a decentralized stock market, like Nxt has;

http://nxt.org

You can see some asset charts on http://www.cryptoassetcharts.info

or http://nextblocks.info

Can't be shut down.

Let's combine the volatility and speculation of the stock market with the complete lack of regulation and security of the Bitcoin market. What do we get? A bullshit Voltron, that's what.

This is no more than a crypto play on crowd funding, under the guise of a stock market; with effectively no consumer protection mechanisms.

Not sure about this one, there are lots of Bitcoin Stock Exchanges of varying trustworthiness. [1]

Bitcoinstarter is also a more entrenched platform for crowd-funding... [2]
