Hello.

There are many exchanges, where is possible to trade BTC or other crypto currencies. But could you advice me which one is the most suitable for me? What I am looking for is the exchange, where I can trade some altcoins for BTC or LTC and which would not require me to enter my real name or other private data. I don't need the option to trade crypto currencies for traditional money. All I need is possibility to store earned Coins in my offline wallet.

Is there any exchange, which provides these services?

Thank You in advance for Your replies

Most exchanges only need personal details if you're depositing or withdrawing fiat currency like dollars/euros/etc.  If you're depositing altcoins and selling them for BTC and LTC, then exchanges like BTC-e and Cryptsy should be fine.

To store them in an offline wallet, however, you'll have to withdraw your BTC/LTC from the exchange to your own address, which usually incurs a fee.

Everyone gives crypsty so much flak. I only ever had one canceled sell order not show up in my balances. 5 min later it was there. Lately i've spread out my coins between bter cryptsy and coins-e because i'm a cheap bastard and want to take advantages of every extra satoshi i can get out of a trade

i recommend you to use btc-e.com. cryptsy always has problems and support doesn't answer in a timely manner.

or try coinex.pw (beta). sometimes down, but still much better than crAptsy.com

Thank you. That's what I needed to know. And fees incurred by BTC/LTC withdrawal are usually fixed or they depend on the amount I am withdrawing?

usually fixed.

Fee for withdrawal BTC on btc-e.com is 0.001 BTC and for LTC 0.01 LTC

I personally use cryptsy. Other than the site being occasionally slow, I haven't had any issues with it. I can exchange all my altcoins for bitcoins, then transfer to coinbase. No personal information needed.

Cryptsy is by far the best for what you want (and highest altcoin trade volume/selection). Bter is another option that I used regularly, and I wouldn't risk by sending lots of coins to most other alt-exchanges. I also tried Coins-e (very low trade volume) and coinedup (only because it had selected coins I was interested in). The latter has login/authentication system linked to your google account, probably a bad thing.
I didn't really use Vircurex, but it seems legit.

Vircurex is faster, and works better for mobile trading.  However you get better prices on Cryptsy generally..  But for what it's worth I'd have to go with Vircurex.  Far less hassles (money disappearing, etc..)

You'll want to use Cryptsy. Other sites just haven't caught up to this altcoin giant.

Use cryptsy, btc-e or bter.com. All of them are really good on what they do!
