Well one thing that will fuck everything up is lawsuits and such. If such things become common you can kiss cryptos good bye. There is a few good exchanges out there ATM, the issue is the lack of verity on most, let alone volume. Most of em when they see a problem they shut down to fix the problem, unlike a un-named one who lets it keep on going, while no one has a clue wtf is going on, and then blames it on the block chain...

Title: Re: So what exchange is least likely to... Post by: Coef on March 05, 2014, 11:41:53 AM IMO, coinbase for US, and bitstamp for non-US.
Title: Re: So what exchange is least likely to... Post by: BitApparel on March 07, 2014, 12:34:46 PM IMO, coinbase for US, and bitstamp for non-US. I've been ripped off by coinbase before, not sure what to do though. Title: Re: So what exchange is least likely to... Post by: Himself on March 07, 2014, 07:13:54 PM CoinMKT. Aside from low-traffic (which seems to improving week by week), they're the farthest along in terms of compliance and they've never halted withdrawals to my knowledge. Once their liquidity picks up just a bit more they'll breakout and become a huge player. Especially since they offer other cryptos.
Title: Re: So what exchange is least likely to... Post by: Bit_Happy on March 08, 2014, 05:34:57 AM For btc/alt's Cryptsy is backed by a real company and will not be running away.
They have some issues but recent customer support was great. Edit: 4) is unusable from bad/cheap design, system, traffic/liquidity problem Cryptsy runs a large rack of servers and only gets slow some of the time. The layout/ navigation is inferior to several others mostly because they have almost 150 markets. Title: Re: So what exchange is least likely to... Post by: Sindelar1938 on March 09, 2014, 04:49:22 AM On those metrics, bitstamp is the current frontrunner
Title: Re: So what exchange is least likely to... Post by: marvinrouge on March 09, 2014, 05:24:10 AM I bet on the death of Bitstamp killed by European regulations ;D Now it becomes ennemy no 1
Followed by Btce-e, owned by anonymous russians who can at any moment fly away with all the btc 2014, year of the exchanges :D Title: Re: So what exchange is least likely to... Post by: koshgel on March 09, 2014, 06:08:40 AM If you can use kraken, I would recommend that
Otherwise, bitstamp |
