Hey guys it seems like there are a lot of exchanges out there that aren't great for NY residents because of the crypto regulations in this state, and some will not even let you register for an account.

I had coins on the Poloniex exchange, but a couple of months ago they asked me which state I lived in and after I selected NY, they would not allow me to access my account even to withdraw my coins. I had to contact support and give them a wallet address, but they do not even list an email on the website. So I ended up having to create a support ticket to try and get my tokens back. It's been over 2 months and they have still not gotten back to me about this...

Anyone know some decent exchanges out there for NY State residents so I don't have to worry as much about jumping through these kind of hoops? Thanks!

I never had any problems with Poloniex, but I'm not a US citizen, so I don't know how they are doing with NY residents. I do think they are a legit exchange, so I think you will get your tokens back. Exchanges are getting a lot of new users these days, so maybe that's the reason for the delay.
Anyway, as for a good exchange for NY residents, have you considered Coinbase and Gdax (same company, and Gdax is great because you don't need to pay fees to trade with them)?
They seem quite secure for me, and they are from the US, so maybe they deal well with NY citizens. My other suggestion would be bittrex, but i heard they accidentally leaked some data form their KYC verification process. I still think they are a good exchange, but maybe you should see how that develops, so you are sure they don't have security issues.
