Bitcoin Forum

Lately a new "Exchange 2.0" taking over. Bittrex & Polo suffer from many complains, locking accounts and many other issues.

Kucoin & Binance are quite different. they have their own token which give benefits.

Both are going very big in Asia and International.

Check out how Kucoin perform vs other exchanges:

https://www.kucoin.network/

Your opinion?

Both Binance and KuCoin are good but KuCoin has some growing to do :)  I believe KuCoin can be bigger than Binance just because it can cater to US and China.  Unless the regulation is lifted.

I think they are designed in a way that regulations wont affect unlike bittrex/polo.

Haven't heard the name kucoin till now, looks pretty now but as binance is having good trading volume lately.
I am still using bittrex and hoping they will not just suspend me like they have done to thousands of bittrex accounts.
Polo is still struggling to resolve all support tickets....

We'll if you want to try it...consider my referral (see my signature) :D

As I said, they had problems initially but seem to have been resolved.  They also offered their coin (5 KCS)  to all users as an offering for the make amends for the trouble.

Most my trades at one time was with POLO...now I have nothing there and mostly use Binance, Bittrex and KuCoin now.

I don't take any chances.

I moved all my coins/tokens from Bittrex and Polo to Kucoin, Binance & Liqui.

I like Binance and KuCoin. I haven't had any major issues with Kucoin and believe it will continue to grow. Bittrex has been slow to add new coins, and the coins they do add are odd ones that aren't as desirable. Binance/KuCoin are both looking to grow and add the coins we all want.

How does kucoin work?
Their WP just explains the ICO lol...

Or is it just another centralised exchange?

It is a centralized exchange similar to Binance. It has some Bonus programs for KCS coin holders and an invitation referral program which pays a bonus. This should help:

https://news.kucoin.com/en/kucoin-will-launch-invitation-bonus-plan-on-1st-october/

Anyone use Binance without verification... and if verified, anyone get verified without a passport?  Also, how much do you trust these new exchanges?  If you frequently trade it means you have to keep coins on the exchange for quick moves.

I agree that Binance is much better than Bittrex now. With the recent issues happening, I am reluctant to trade in Bittrex. Haven’t hear of Kucoin, will check it out.


The daily withdrawal is 2 BTC for non verified users. I verified using my passport recently. A few month back, Binance refused to verify without a passport, I believe it should be the same now.

A lot of exchange start ups try to impress their client when they are trying to register themselves in the mind of the participants in the market especially when the there are large number of players offering the same thing. The moment they get their target audiences and even surpass it just with few numbers, they also begin to be guilty of those things we are all accusing the big players today. Its just like someone comparing how fast a transaction on a coin platform is to bitcoin and by that decide its the best option without considering the amount of volume that is happening on the bitcoin network every seconds.

It is true, Bittrex adding weird and unknown coins. something weird happen there, they are far away from crypto community interests..

I used Binance for quite a while with just the basic Level 1 account and no verification, but the 2 BTC withdrawal limit started to get in the way when I would move funds, so I used a passport and verified the next level up. I trust them, and I am aware of risks keeping coins on exchanges, but there are risks keeping coins in hardware/software wallets as well.

Just like any other exchange... with a little twist :)

Register and see

you are right, Kucoin & Binance are the chinese versions of Bittrex & Poloniex

I'm starting to use Binance a lot more than Bittrex now if I can help it. The only issue is Binance not having the amount of coins I'd like to be trading in.

Bittrex lucked many of my friends accounts, they all move to kucoin and binance now..

It certainly seems like Binance and especially Kucoin are the hot topic right now in terms of exchanges, though given some time I expect to see a decentralised exchange really begin to dominate the market in the coming years.

It's seems Kucoin is gathering some momentum right now. Someone in a whatsapp group that I am a member of posted a link to kucoin.com  and I have checked it out. The interface seems pretty user friendly and the webpage loads faster. Also if you hold KCS token, you stand to get some bonus rewards.

2BTC/day is fine with me. better with $100/day on Bittrex..

First, this is a dirty trick. And I don't like it. This site sends the users to the exchange with your referral.
Second, I don't like the UI of kucoin. It is closer to Yobit UI than Poloniex. Polo still looks more professional.
And third, the number of coins exchanged is very small. How can you compare an exchange with 10-20 coins with something established and tons of coins?
No. The comparison doesn't stand. This is just a referral trick.

This is true. but we have no choise atm but to play this game.

Next year we will see more DEX and every thing will be better :)

heard binance are trying to charge 150k usd listing fee? sounds extortionate to me.

First there seem to be a misunderstanding, everyone can check it out without registering...they just can't trade.

They (KuCoin and Polo) are different models and as mentioned Polo is a veteran exchange, I used to love it and was my main exchange  but I eventually left for Bittrex.  Bittrex and Binance are my go to exchanges now.  For me, KuCoin entered the picture recently due to RPX.  I really wanted to buy that coin and I can only get it from KuCoin.

I am one of those who is taking advantage of their referral system (shown in my signature) ...no shame there but just because I believe the exchange has a future after reviewing it.  I also bashed it here when they had problems but they corrected it and won me back.

I’d love to know what Bittrex charges. I’m sure it’s a lot more!

Wow if that is true then they are making a killing...both from listing and the trading/transfer fees! :o

Uhm so this is just a kind of murky pyramide ponzi scheme (referal system where you earn from referall fee with multiple levels) which hides behind a exchange?

Did i get it right?

Well sure, but we are all trading the same coins. This incentive program drives trading volume into their exchange. As opposed to BitConnect where someone will be left holding the bag at the end.

The big difference is that you are not putting out anything other than effort (no cost to you).  If you will trade anyway, why not?

I apply same logic in my credit cards, I get ones with cash back...collect the cash back w/o paying interest because I pay it in pull every month.  They pay me for using their service. ;)

Businesses use referral to attract customers, this doesn't make them a Ponzi. In this case there are still platforms where people can exchange coins versus other people.
What I pointed out was that OP came out with an over-scaled comparison just to lure people click on his ref link.


If they did it right, even if somebody registers in a month, your referral link will still be in effect. Yes, it depends on how they do the referral policy.
And I think that you know that too.


The users have nothing to lose. Still, I don't like this ref practice.

In the future we will have direct accress to DEX via Trezor or so :P

I guess they are the underrated exchanges at the moment,a lot of people recommending it. Kucoin,people are recommending it for listing new ico coins and binance it has no fees for a few altcoins like neo and gas i guess. Bittrex I dont know what is going to happen they have been banning and blocking access to some of its users and poloniex aren't listing any coins and their daily withdrawal limit is low.. So maybe we are going to see a new exchanges taking over bittrex and poloniex.

Can't blame you and can respect that.  Thanks for the civil discussion :)

Yes Kucoin even have chat in .cn language..

I have any thing I need on Binance, Kucoin, HitBTC, Liqui & EtherDelta..

Yes I hope. right now EtherDelta is not the most user-friendly but.. millions using it which is epic.

KuCoin is only around for two months give it some time they are listing a new coin like every 3 days.


From their whitepaper:
2017.12 - Over 50 mainstream cryptocurrency pairs listed
2018.12 - 1,000+ cryptocurrencies listed

Im interested to see where Binance goes with their "Labs" section:

https://labs.binance.com

in a few years could we see ICOs offered directly through Binance and pay in BNB coins? Additionally Binance is adding BNB market pairs for just about everything they already have. And while we are on this Binance love fest, here is a referral link if you'd like to sign up for them too:

https://www.binance.com/register.html?ref=10180792

Kucoin, i haven't heard of it before till now. Gonna have to check that out.
Binance on the other hand really has great potential to grow bigger than it is today and really rewch the level of bittrex and polo. (Dont like polo that much to be honest)

Binance has earned its spot where it is, and its rising.

Kucoin is absolutely brand new and hasn't earned anything yet; but has the single most aggressive shilling I have ever seen in my life right now. It puts COSS to shame in that regard. Its stupid referral system + heavy marketing budget has people pretending its on par with Binance/Bittrex long before its earned that right.

If it gets there, Ill give it that credit, but its not in the same conversation as Binance right now. Binance has weathered some shit, and worked HARD on community outreach and adding of coins to get the small bit of respect it has from users and the volume its built. Kucoin ain't there. Not yet anyway.

So sure, half of the OP is right, the rest reads like the Ku shilling thats all over reddit lately. Although I wouldnt mind if Ku rose; Bittrex needs their teeth kicked in for the laziness that's overtaken them in the last 8 months, and Polo is a shell of its former self.

i think they should use better interfaces.

Actually both exchanges are not bad, somewhat similar although they have a long way to go. The future? Not really. I see the future being decentralized exchanges, not centralized ones like Binance, Kucoin, and many others.

Thats why I am pushing Binance/KuCoin. It pisses me off that Bittrex sucks so much ass lately and isn't adding anything worthwhile, Polo just sucks so bad as well and is on a downward spiral. KuCoin is exactly where Binance was when they were this new, and I believe they will follow in Binance's footsteps. If we don't have good options then we will be stuck with shitty exchanges pushing shitty coins.

I'd like decentralized exchanges to be the future, but they have been around for a while already (BitShares anyone? EtherDelta is so small in the grand scheme as well) and I am wondering if it is just fantasy to think we will really have DEXs that have a bigger share than centralized exchanges.

Sure, they can be the next Polo and Bittrex but these two have been around for aw while and have gained a lot of trust. Binance is closer than Kucoin but I can't trust Kucoin at the moment, gotta give them time to grow.

Binance definitely is one of the best exchange out there because it values its community input. Kucoin is also doing that extremely well and that is why it has a rapid growing community. They are like asking for rpx, etp, and other tokens and the dev really go and reach out to these coins. So that is why kucoinc is growing.. and the token give you dividends on their profits.

Yup I hold KCS my self

Contrary to the people who are upset at the Kucoin referral program and their aggressive marketing, I see this as a big positive. I want to see aggressive marketing. I'm buying KCS today on this dip to the 10,000 satoshi level. I look for it to be a quick 2x and it pays dividends of %50 of profits to token holders which I think people will demand of there exchanges in the future.

It was obviously true, The binance will be the next exchange site in the future that will be changing the bittrex position because too many problems in the bittrex caused by the team are disabling a lot of account in there. A lot of people are moving towards the binance and kucoin.

You have a very good comparison. Binance and Kucoin are two exchanges are getting a lot of attention. The total trading volume of these two exchanges has grown significantly. It is possible that in the future these two exchanges will be Poloniex and Bittrex.

Very interesting discussion, glad I found this ann.

Indeed we need new big good exchanges.

It is a centralised exchange like Binance

Yes, I am using Binance without verification. if they will force verification like bittrex then every one will move to kucoin.

I sure hope so  ;).

The volume on Kucoin dropped back to old levels, before RPX on Kucoin-levels... It was 11 million dollars at the height. Now it doesn't even touch 3 million dollars. What happened? Binance stealing the Kucoin-thunder with referal-links and listing the same coins?

In order to grow, Kucoin needs RPX to stay solely on Kucoin and the RPX-team need to make progress & true announcements... Just my opinion.

I too have same reaction and can see many other folks inclined towards

As far as I know, the binance are more likely to be the next bittrex since there are new coins listed on this exchange almost every day. And most of their coins are new coins.

Kucoin make the interesting ideas for project start: referals and their coins that gives bonuses in altcoins. And now adding new coins fastly, this making their successful. But i think polo for the long time will be one of the best

Kucoin is not popular like Binance, kucoin is a new and small exchange. Binance is awesome for new projects. Binance has huge volume now, it is actively trading. It has potential to be next bittrex.

Yes,

But binance was once small and unknown like Kucoin... Hopefully the verification stays out & China will start trading again when the government will issue a clear statement.

I'm not entirely sure about Kucoin since i haven't done any research on how their token functions within their exchange environment so it would be inappropriate for me to comment on that matter. But Binance is definitely looking like a strong favorite to be the next big thing.

They have great community involvement which is probably the most overlooked part of an exchange.

Can definitely achieve great results if they keep up their good work.

It does not glare since the volume is not so high yet, but it will probably change once the volume gets higher. Bittrex was a lot better and useful when they were slightly hidden behind the shadows of poloniex. They did become the new poloniex of the market and things immidiately changed.

I'm trading in finance and happy with that, also the best part of finance is its mobile app. very light weight compare any other mobile trading app in crypto

Those places aren't that noteworthy, I mean who would go around saying that they are trading in Kucoin and Binance?

I guess Kucoin will just continue to spiral down the abyss. Truly depressing watching my bet against btc tank in such a way.  it is exciting to begin accumulating a multitude of coins, but with the value continually dropping its making me want to jump out of a window. 


I got off board 4k ppt to diversify after waiting for months for something to happen...Of course after I sell....8 thousand dollars worth....it goes up to 12 dollars...fml.

i Really hope that this decision will pay off...
I have been waiting a month for something to happen...missing out on ltc, neo, btc, bch, and eths huge runs theyve had.

Kucoin is bad, they have listed a scam coin named as "confido". They didnt even bother to check whether the team is legitimate. The team just exit scammed by dumping coins

Both should be bad exchange sites. Kucoin with its scam confido token and binance with its scam various bitcoin hardfork token. it seems to be true. For the coin analyzation and it seems bittrex still the best in my opinion.

i got hacked inside job in binace.  they do not offer   security
no ip detection  email etc
  crap beware

Maybe kucoin has more potential than binance, since it is still in the early stage. If the kucoin's team is able to learn the lessons from the past, they will succeed in this wild west of crypto-world.

Since Binance coin is up on the vote to be Kucoin's next listing, there should be some kind of connection between the two exchanges, right?

If BNB will be traded on Kucoin, it would damage KCS I would think...

Yeah there is a connection between them. The people that run binance helped the kucoin owners set up there exchange so they are good friends most likely. But if they both have each others coin traded on there exchanges than it shouldn't weaken KCS prices. I have a lot of KCS myself but i'm finding the strong bitcoin is what is hurting my KCS prices right now, can't wait for it bitcoins bullish run to finish so my KCS prices can increase again!

Binance doesn't have stop loss, trailing stop functions. How can they be new bittrex?

Binance are working on adding the stop loss feature, which should be implemented very soon hopefully. I've been using Binance as my main exchange for about 3 months now without issue & it's honestly become my favorite & most trusted exchange. I'm not too familiar Kucoin though.

There is still a lot of room for improvement for both new exchanges to be able to compete known and trustable exchange. There is still lack of a feature like stop-loss order in binance. If both new exchanges can maintain the development, then I'm sure it will gain popularity.

I like binance because I can using my phone.very practical
my first time use KuCoin couple weeks ago I think KuCOin is good for new exchange site and easy to use without any problems and now getting popular.

I'd more say Binance (https://coincodex.com/exchange/binance/). It's awesome tho... been using it for a while now.

Didn't realise that the binance coin was looking to get listed on other exchanges. If it does go on kucoin it would help with the BNB pump that is just waiting to happen. Better grab some more BNB!

Kucoin & Binance are the new Bittrex & Polo ? seems so.

No bittrex cannot be replaced by anything it has the highest altcoin volmue. Kucoin is a joke, and binance is very good I like this exchange, they list a lot of new coins.

I don't know why but every time an exchange goes to the top their attitude and customer service goes to shit.

The reddit page has good summary on KuCoin

https://www.reddit.com/r/kucoin/comments/7dm6s5/new_to_kucoin_check_this_out_faq/

A lot of selling points . I like that they pay Gas dividends for Neo holders. I have invested in both kucoin and COBINHOOD.  With bitcoin getting lot of mainstream attention with news on BTC listing on Chicago Mercantile Exchange and NASDAQ, 2018 could be the year where lot of big money comes into cryptos.

While one can not be sure about the success of all altcoins, these exchanges are definitely safer bet with good potential. Fingers crossed !

I have no experience with Kucoin but Binance has been great. No issues with deposits or withdrawals. And you get a 2 BTC limit if you're unverified which is far more than BitTrex's 0.04 BTC for basic verification.

 Both Kucoin and Binance are not bad they are new and somewhat similar but they have a long way to go.

What do you think about COSS?

KuCoin is doing exceptionally well. Community support, Communication, UI and development in general are outstanding.
Nevertheless do I see also COSS. It could be now the much "younger, less popular and smaller brother" of KuCoin, but will rise, when its getting mature (UI overhaul expected to happen in december).
Then people realize its fee sharing is much better ;)

I heard kucoin just recently, I think it was less than a month ago actually I made an account to this new exchange platform then when I open it the interface was quite good however even I'm not quite familiar with this exchange but I feel it will become like bittrex or poloniex someday.

yes I really agree with you, a new exchange named Kucoin is very good in my opinion, very easy to use and low risk. Kucoin will be very popular and many use it in 2018 in my prediction.

Are you serious ? Binance trade volume is 1Billion dollars a day now. It’s just a little over 5 months old exchange .

https://coinmarketcap.com/exchanges/binance/

Probably somebody ilke you would have said in 1980s ..’ I mean who would go around saying that I am using windows operating system...blah blah’

Kucoin and Binance are really good exchanges because they are user friendly. But lately BNB has been rising a lot but KCS has been falling. I own some KCS and have lost 50% on it, but still believe in the future of this exchange, especially after the way they handled the Confido ICO scam.

you are right, kucoin and binance will grow big in the future. and they will compete it very good

Seems they are building a lot of community in these past months,maybe they can be like bittrex with a lot of new features.

So you totally ignore COSS with a static 50% shared fee ? Not sure if you aware of it.
Please don't argue with COSS has bad UI or deposits/withdrawal are slow as f***.

This will be fixed until End of December.

Kucoin is growing like crazy, I hope they keep up the good work and more people start trading there for the KCS bonus :).I never do this but i really have faith in kucoin so If you dont have an account and you want to try kucoin, I would appreciate if you use my invitation code https://www.kucoin.com/#/?r=1NJuaQR
Happy holidays  :D

I under a thousand KCS from in the early days (like 40 cents). The KCS bonus isn't much, but since the exchange itself has grown, my the investment of 300 dollars is now worth over 10 000 dollars so that's my KCS-bonus for believing in KCS when Kucoin was just under 3 million dollars of daily volume... Regrets that I didn't buy more...

Both coins are growing like it's running out of style, 2018 will be awesome for utility tokens

I think Bittrex and Poloniex need to be concern about their future, Asia is where the market is now and have been driving the price of most of the Altcoins now, I fear most for Poloniex because I don't know when I hope their website talkless of trade there

I believe that the mobile app from Binance plays a very important role in elevating its status. Hope more exchanges follow suit.

Definitely agree with you. Binance is now the worlds largest crypto exchange if I'm not mistaken. Also, Kucoin is growing extremely fast and its volume just keeps on increasing day by day.

I am currently using Binance and Kucoin for business instead of Bittrex and Poloniex. Because I like the simplicity of the interface design of Binance and Kucoin, it's handy and efficient. I also rarely use Bittrex and Poloniex because it has a high transaction fee, I do not want to accept that charge so I switched to Binance, Kucoin. These two pages of commerce are in great development.

i think that binance is a good and effective exchange but i support to criptopia and hitbtc and also bitfinex i use them i honestly use them according to the alt that i am having.

Yes I am happy, the presence of binance and kukoin into a good solution, I'm tired of bittrex and surprised by this situation.

kucoin and binance is now one of the best and fastest growing markets. it may be a huge market choice for coin releases and give a good price in the future. the design of kucoin and binance is very easy to use by beginner and smooth for transaction.

JEX.COM new exchange building 1-Jan-2018, Very guy :)

So I have started using the Kucoin app for android and damn its pretty awful, doesnt hold a candle to the Binance app yet. Hope they upgrade it.

Kucoin's website is awesome though, even on smartphone mostly.

yes I believe this, I am currently using Kucoin and it is great! I am having no issues at all. I think there will be better and better exchanges and this will always mean that they will increase in the ability.

I just downloaded the Kucoin trading app and found it very simple to do it, this is an advance in the world of trading with an app will make traders more comfortable and simple.
I like the Kucoin feature and it's very easy to understand.

I hope their apps' performances will get better too -_-

I think you're right. Kucoin and Binance are becoming more popular while Polo and Bittrex are losing customers.

I have invited more than 800 new users to Kucoin exchange, and now I receive more than 100 dollars per day.

Kucoin is a great exchange. :'(

I don't think Bittrex is worried about losing customers - they can't even handle the peak load of existing customers. They have stopped registration of new accounts for almost 3 months now. It seems strange that they put out this message in December and even now have not upgraded their servers to accept new customers.
Even Binance went through the sharp increase in load and stopped new user registration for some time, but they quickly sorted out their problems.

I think Kucoin is a very good developing exchange. I don't consider it would be right for me to comment on why I haven't used the Binance as an exchange directly.

Why pity smile?

Кucoin and Binance become very popular exchanges indeed. But I do not think that they will become more popular than Bittrex and Polo. But now they have a big advantage atm - they allow to register new users. And this makes these exchanges very popular. Plus their tokens.

Bittrex and poloniex seem to have lost significant market share compared to last year. I don't think they will get back on top either.

Yes it is binance has gained a lot of popularity because of the smaller fees it is requiring compare to bittrex and poloniex plus binance doesnt have any security issues from the past unlike poloniex which was hacked from the past,KuCoin also is getting more massive day by day because most of the solid projects are being listed first in KuCoin before they have reached the major exchanges.

No Bittrex remain the leader , who by the way they register the new user , This is a very good exchange , I have traded on it . Binance is also a great option

Binance and Kucoin are more popular than bittrex and polo. Binance is the  most safe exchange because it transaction volume is highest one.

You are very correct. Both exchanges are on the gonna be the biggest center of crypto trading unless some exchanges comes up with futures that can beat Binance Mobile App.

Dude Kucoin is the best. Recently listed Polymath on their exchange as well.  ;D

To be honest, Binance is a bit disappointing for me, I went ahead and sent almost all of my assets there because i thought it is one of the safest options out there and i liked their interface BUT the minimum withdrawal amount and moreover the fees are seriously high for such a big exchange.

My opinion is this: Their fees are too damn high for some coins! So, I used 50$ to by 2700 tokens, when I wanted to withdraw those to myethwallet, I had to pay them a flat fee of 800 tokens.
I mean, WHAT THE HECK? That's rip off! I had it with these exchanges!

well, kucoin has some downsides. To many campaigns but limited winners. Whales are always winning from the contests which is not fair.
And they need new coins.
Binance on the other hand has become the king... It exactly 5x Bittrex's cap. To be honest, I have been using Bittrex for the last 6 months but I am considering Binance now... Great coins, great interface, great referal program.

This two exchange are popular now some traders from bittrex are they going to transfer to binance and kucoin because they know this two exchange are good to used and all the coins are easy to pump because many traders here are big whales.

Right. Binance and Kucoin are receiving great attention from the cryptocurrency investment community. This is demonstrated by the fact that these two pages are trading volumes. With the good features, simple interface and low transaction fees are the advantages of these two pages of commerce received great attention from investors.

Right now the trade volume of this two exchange site are really huge and day by day it became popular exchange site in crypto world so it is possible that it became new bitttex & polo.
The platform and design of this two exchange site are really good it also easy to familiarize the one thing that I like in this exchange site are theres a lot of good token that you trade but like other exchange site theres also a problem that you encounter.

Binance has huge volumes, and not bad withdraw limit without verification, so you can use it as anonymous exchange, what you can't say about polo or bittrex. But I still use Bittrex, it is comfortable for me.

Well, as "the old guard" of exchanges become more and more user-unfriendly, it is obvious that someone will be very happy to step in and to give to customers what they are looking for...

The same thing I felt for years using Bittrex, I did not find any gaffe.
just a few issues about the WD limit, and it's done. I am more worried about the rise of popularity, the fall is also faster. ;D

currently I just use Kucoin and binance because have more low fees than Bittrex Polo. and the best is kucoin although kucoin is not as popular as binance.
I'm sure both will be the next of bittrex and polo.

All seems well but from my personal experiences Kucoin exchanges support system is too slow and unresponsive. In their chat system they have got only one person and he is Mr Sandy. I do not know whether he is a live person or an automated ChatBot I had interacted many times with Kucoin chat and every time he only shows up and his responses are just automated and looks as if he is taking random answers from their support database. When support website of Kucoin is contacted even their response also is not satisfactory Also they are not true and abiding to their own statements. For example, let us take one issue, here as follows :

Kucoin has issued statement that they will support all types of forked tokens in their statement as per the following link dated 14 December 2017 :
https://news.kucoin.com/en/announcement-regarding-ethereum-fog-and-other-fork-coins/

Now let's take the fork of fifth largest cryptocoin and the famous LTC to LTC Cash hardfork which took place at LTC Block height of 1371111 around 18 February 2018 (See the link : https://www.express.co.uk/finance/city/920027/Litecoin-fork-Litecoin-Cash-hard-fork-crypto-token-spilt-when-will-Litecoin-spilt )

I hold around 9 LTC on Kucoin exchange on that particular date and block height. I am supposed to get approximately 90 LTC Cash as per hard fork policy. But neither we received an announcement when Kucoin is issuing us LTC Cash nor I received the LTC Cash. When enquired with Mr. Sandy over support chat he told he do not have any idea about the hardfork nor he had seen any announcement about it. When I had given the above references to it, it told that he had nothing to do with it and that is under business team purview. When I had insisted that the matter be raised with Business team by quoting above references, there is no response from it.

After that I had sent an email with the same references to support staff they had also claimed there is no such announcement. It is really surprising that a major hardfork of the fifth largest cryptotoken (LTC) had taken place and an esteemed exchange like Kucoin does not have a clue about it and they are trying to shrug off their shoulders.

Again when I had given them their own website announcement regarding the support for all type of forked tokens as per the above links then they said that they will support all types of forked tokens and they will forward the matter to relevant team for further action but after that no response from them

Now my points are :

1. Kucoin had issued statement on their website on 14 December 2017 that they will permanently support all types of forked tokens (Reference : https://news.kucoin.com/en/announcement-regarding-ethereum-fog-and-other-fork-coins/ )

2. The hard fork of LTC to LTC Cash took place at blockheight 1371111. This Kucoin is not aware of and they are keeping silent. Really ridiculous that an esteemed exchange like Kucoin does not know what is going on with the fifth largest LTC crypto and they are contradicting their own statements.

3. Now users like me have parked their LTC in exchange. And as per fork policy we are supposed to get 10 LTC Cash for every i LTC held. If Kucoin do not support LTC Cash hardfork, (if they do not, then they are contradicting their own statement of permanent support to all types of forked tokens. They are making false and misleading statements so that customers will get lured to them) then where those forked tokens go ? Are they in the pockets of Kucoin or with LTC / LTC Cash developers (founders) ? They are supposed to belong to investors since it is their property.

Finally, I request KUcoin to immediately release proportionate LTC cash (ten in number to one LTC held) to all LTC holders in Kucoin exchange at the time of fork (including me , tki_92@hotmail.com), afterall it is their money and not Kucoin's. By doing so they will not contradict their own statement of permanent support to all types of forked tokens.

Yes, I agree with this one.
As you can see in the western part, has many issues in cryptocurrencies and it affects also the exchangers in the West Part, unlike in the eastern part especially in Asia as countries embrace the cryptocurrencies and technology of Blockchain, which Binance and Kucoin came from.

I think the trend is stillon Binance and Kucoin.

KuCoin constantly run tacky online-casino-style competitions, accepted 5 bitcoins for a listing that they didn’t go through with and tried to hide their team as if no one had ever taken a screenshot of it. Grab some popcorn and take a seat!

Binance and Kucoin are the two exchanges that offers users with incentives such as discounted fees and dividends if you hold their coins. I also like the fact that they are reimbursing users with the gas generated from Neo.

I have recently had different encounters with Kucoin support.

Although - I blame the English language barrier - the responses weren't 100 percent spot on, they came in a couple of hours after creating my tickets & replying to them.

For an exchange with over 2 million members, they do have a good respond-time!

I have traded on Binance, Poloniex, Bleu Trade, Gate-IO, BitFinex, Yobit, Cryptsy, and more .

In eight years of trading I have lost been hacked or stolen from two times once on Poloniex and the other from Kucoin .

Kucoin is by far closer to Cryptsy, comparing yourself to an exchange like Binance is an insult those guys at Binace offered rewards to catch hackers.

I lost 30000 ocn coin on Kucoin never confirmed an email I use twofactor virus protection and keep in mind when you get ready for your FUD comments 8 years and lost only 2 times ?

It is not by chance I have protected myself that long ..

In my opinion your are a Mount Gox in the making and a Cryptsy .

Kucoin could careless I read a post from someone else same thing he gets emails in Japanese and then he loses his money .




Just my opinion ...

I use everyday KuCoin and Binance.. I like both but Binance is really another planet.
It’s big, has good liquidity for many coins and has a very serious management.

Since I discovered Binance I use Bittrex very few times.....

Watch this CEO burn these coins Changpeng Zhao, you can tell when he does it and says he has "never burned any money before" it was hard to do ..

This guy is the real deal ..

When you can do something like that you believe in long term ..

Binance ...

Yep, those 2 exchanges really know how to win the market, with actively listing many new coins and tokens and holding some events for trader.
So we can see the token of those 2 exchanges have a very nice price growth.

I looked for videos of Michael Gan I think he is owner maybe CEO of Kucoin I cant find any, maybe there are some ?

I can find videos of  Zhao ChengPeng, talks about his vision for the future of cryptocurrency     https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l8XNRTfPgZI

I can find Justin Sun  https://www.forbes.com/profile/justin-sun/

Can you link us some videos of the team at Kucoin ?

I would nice to hear them speak.

Zhao ChenPeng very transparent.. Binance

Justin Sun also very transparent .. Tron    TRX token..

They have long term goals and speak of how to achieve these goals openly and this is a very critical.

I feel better when I can see them talk openly to possibly millions of people.

I feel better because I think it is creating trust in a person and a Brand..

I have been a member of this board since 2014 and seldom post I only post when I get robbed I was robbed of my funds on Kucoin and until they contact me back I recommend do not what ever you do put your money in the exchange.


I have been reading various complaints about them and some are very serious .


Some of them are exactly like mine people using all of the safety mechanisms and still getting robbed.

You're right . After trying two exchanges, Binance and Kucoin. Then I think Kucoin is better than Binance. I also spent some money to buy KCS. Hope it will thrive in the future and kucoin will be the biggest exchange in the world

I agree with this Kucoin and Binance really the most popular exchangers right now. With its easy to use platform and APPs mobile that can work well. The support is also fast when you email them I lost my 2FA at Kucoin and I emailed the support team after 1 week i manage to retrieve my account.

At this times! Many exchanger used it! Have big volume and fast to deposit and withdraw! Thiss is best way to ....

yes and even more I would say!!! they are much more transparent and engaging more with the community like we never seen before!

also they never been hacked and have higher security standars, I dont use much bitterrx and never signed up for polox

In fact, a very similar story))
On Kucoin for a very long time, I can not pass through the verification. But it is possible without him. But already 3 weeks have written "Wait"

The days of Bittrex and Polo are long gone.
Binanace and Kucoin are good enough even without verification if you are not withdrawing large at once.
And the success of these have influenced many newer exchanges like Viabtc's Coinex.

I tried to find the owner of Kucoin and some videos on the team behind it there a shadow company you will probable get robbed like I did .


They gave my funds or took my funds either way I lost money on Kucoin .. I used all the security measures its easy to verfy that I did and I had nobody login to my email to confirm the withdralws I have the ip logs for that too.

I have contacted Kucoin and they have not replies at all .

If you put money on Kusoin maybe you will lucky and not get robbed I have no Idea.

I have had money on BLeutrade fro years lol little bitty exchange with half the security and its was still there put money on Kucoin and get robbed in a matter of days .


Kucoin is like Cryptsy or Mt. Gox.

I have used both Kucoin and Binance for some number of transactions and i think they are quite great. I trust them, and I am aware of risks keeping coins on exchanges, but there are risks keeping coins in hardware/software wallets as well.

Looks like they are taking over the volume though I haven't been trade on those exchange because I never had a problem with bittrex after they verify my account. I think their advantage are lower fee and bigger maximum withdrawal per day. I also don't use poloniex since they had a problem with support, I withdraw all my asset and transfer to bittrex. 

I don't have anything against both of the exchanges but Kucoin has been in a recent bad lighting?

I can't remember if its verify, but the thing is it is documented. They send all the details on their medium post.

Anyways, I love binance. it's quick and a very good user interface.

i use to like polo and bittrex but they are losing the game these days. they still have good volume though but there are lots of exchanges that are coming out that might even bury them in the list. sooner the projects like midex will also be launched. there are several projects that also have an exchange of their own and you can see it on their roadmaps.

Actually both exchanges are quite good, somewhat similar although they have a long way to go. The future? Not really. I see the future being decentralized exchanges, not centralized ones like Binance, Kucoin, and many others.

Decentralization is the future

Both binance and kucoin are very good for traders, in terms of transaction fee, and trading volume, I have all my coin on binance, kucoin and hitbtc, and I'm sure they are growing higher so soon.

I believe so. In addition, I personally prefer Kucoin because of its security.
It's one step better than Binance according to the record, Binance got hacked and Kucoin never at least till this moment.
Binance has bigger market cap than Kucoin but not much. And I believe security is the first element when you want to use website to trade and store your coin.

I used both of them the kucoin and binance they are good exchanges no need verification to withdraw but I more like binance because of high volume there, low transaction fee and very popular exchanges. Poloniex and bittrex are popular in last year but now it seems people don't like it because always having a problem their exchanges too many complain.

I had some KCS and other coins. Someone hacked me and stole all my coins :'(. Nobody cares. I can't do anything against the thief :-\
Kucoin sucks. The thief can do whole what he wants on the blockchain. Who can stop him?

Yes, you are right kucoin and binance are both crypto exchange giant now, they have succeeded in displacing bittrex and poloniex. Kucoin and binance have easy to use features and they are user friendly.

I think it's dangerous to do such comparisons, ur going to look for patterns that don't exist. Better look at each exchange as a unique entity.

I would not be so quick to decide that such giants as bittrex and Polo are so easy to give their positions, although of course after buying these exchanges the community obviously needs something new. Of course now Binance is also a redeemed exchange. We are waiting for a new decentralized stock exchanges.

Kucoin recently added some extra layer of security which impressed me, I'm considering to use kucoin as one of my major token exchanges. I don't agree with the fees, some users were complaining about the high withdrawal fees, I didn't try it yet.

binance has already proved that it is the strongest candidate replace bittrex/polo, i have no doubt about it

kucoin is my first exchange for trading lately, but they have thing to do until they become as big as binance

kucoin will be one of the best also, i never had any problem at kucoin

i am using bibox also, it is nice one,too...but to much fake trading at bibox makes me sick

I would agree with binance, but not with kucoin.

Although kucoin has popularity, the actual volume of trade on the site isn't that much.
Actually, Bibox (which has no name recognition has better volume).

Of course, kucoin's growth is phenomenal and it can easily be one of the top exchanges, but for now, it seems most people are satisfied with just having binance be the granddaddy of them all.

My own personal opinion, is that people will flock en masse to a new exchange the moment it shows signs of booming.
The biggest contender I can think of is Coss.

A lot of investors are eager to jump in on an exchange when it is new and its coin is still undervalued.

But, yes, the old giants are all becoming irrelevant and unusable.
Poloniex, hitbtc, bittrex, cryptopia, they all have insane fees and technical problems up the wazoo.
They have already proven that they can't scale and handle truly large volume.

This happens because Bittrex and Poloniex are quite strict regarding their membership and withdrawal of funds because you need to do verification first before you can actually withdraw you're money but you can always deposit with that many users cant access their funds because it is hard to get in touch with the help providers. Meanwhile in Kucoin and Binance you can actually trade and withdraw your coins without any hassle thus many people started to use it than Bittrex & Polo.

Definitely taking over with superior customer service,options and interface.

Kucoin and Binance both are good exchanges but it will take time for them to equate the bittrex exchange. Bittrex have large quantity of coins listed on its exchange but kucoin and binance don't have that much coin.

In my opinion Kucoin and Binance have good potential in terms of usability and security. The interface of these exchanges is very user friendly. Moreover, they both have their own token and they both use revenue sharing scheme if the user hold their token. I personally like these two exchange and as it is very big exchanges in asia, most likely they will be the top in near future.

Kucoin is a scam exchange and they steal peoples money .

They have been promising for a month to return mine that they stole and if I knew how to post the screen clips Id show you.

They have even taken over binance exchange volume can't be compare to any. Kukoin is as well a cool exchange for trading though kukoin also adding to volume. It will take time to be reach binance level.

I agree to both kucoin and binance being user friendly .I gind it decured aldo eith do many new coins being accepted or listed.Volume continues to piled up also which makes  them popular among exchanges.

I would not be so quick to decide that such giants as bittrex and Poloniex are so easy to give their positions, although of course after buying these exchanges the community obviously needs something new. Of course now Binance is also a redeemed exchange. We are waiting for a new decentralized stock exchanges.

when I open it the interface was quite good however even I'm not quite familiar with this exchange but I feel it will become like bittrex or poloniex someday.

Bibox will be a better exchange site its underrated and only few notices the good system they have.. dividends = huge value in the future

Yeah until this time last year I was mainly using Bittrex and Poloniex, but after December I have shifted to Kucoin and Binance as they are the Exchange 2.0. Both Bittrex and Poloniex exchange now require you to verify your accounts with your documents and that is what lead to me shifting to Kucoin and Binance. Trusting an online exchange with your personal documents is very risky, especially when the exchanges are so prone to hacking attempts.

Polo and bittrex seem to have lost their connection already, the new ones are not taking BTC from their users which is why they are likely to survive in the end. I think if Bittrex and Polo will soon take not BTC through the transaction fees, I think we're all going to also keep using them still.

Personally, I choose Biance, have clear development strategy, very good technical team, answered the questions of users very quickly, when there are still issues to update the situation for everyone to know.

but most of the listed  coin there is a good coin that has good volume . Bittrex is so popular last year but not now binance is already a head than bittrex in terms of volume.

Bitrex defined how an exchange should be and set an standard and others like Okex and Huobi followed it.
At the moment of writing it, OkEx holds the first position for 24 hour trade followed by Binance and Huobi.

Actually both exchanges are not bad, somewhat similar although they have a long way to go. The future? Not really. I see the future being decentralized exchanges, not centralized ones like Binance, Kucoin, and many others.

I prefer kucoin more than any other exchanger that i use in the past because there are some markets before who get issues on where the scenario is, their coins are lost due to the drastic changes of cryptocurrency in the market.

Binance low fees are awesome for me, especially since if you use BNB to pay for fees it is even cheaper, not to mention the price of BNB has gone up nicely over the last 5-6 months so I have bought sold and traded coins on Binance for free essentially.

I also agree with Binance and Kucoin, they are a lot of bonuses and surprises. like this afternoon I also get a deposit Bitcoin from Kucoin worth 0.00014 for holding Altcoins Covesting.

let me hold more Altcoins, definitely more bonuses.

I am also a supporter of the Kucoin exchange even though Binance is used by more people. Recently Kucoin has a lot of airdrop programs on kucoin exchanges. I think with this method Kucoin will used by more people

This two are great to trade, with big trading amount, and also with comfortable usr interface easily understandable

Interestingly, this what it is as far as exchange of cryptocurrency goes right now! Bittrex is having a regulatory nightmare in it's country and that has open door of unprecendented patronage for Binance!

They recently open their system for allowing users to buy cryptocurrencies through visas and that must be the reason why they are struggling now to cope up  with their countries regulations. They badly needed such process to continue to compete with the new exchanges today which is more user friendly. The volume in their exchange still is considerable.

bittrex was the top tier but lately they haven`t made many updates and are left over from bincance. Binance is the leader of exchanges as any coins which listed there gains so high popularity.

Absolutely! After Binance start operating, I abandon Poloniex totally. Nowadays, I seldom trade in Bittrex too.

Other than cheaper fees, better support and fast platform, Binance and Kucoin are supporting airdrops. This is another plus point.

Actually kucoin is good regarding the support and also its own token can give benefit to get lower fee for its holder. But the volume i think its not enough to replace thos two exchange. Regarding binance, i have no doubt with this exchange. Its very great for me.
