Alternatives to Kraken.com

[the1]

I seriously do like kraken a lot.
Made deposits as well as withdrawals and btc/ltc transactions to and off different wallets.
But beeing offline for that long with no info about what is going on for me as a customer is not acceptable,
and that's why I'm losing my trust to have my money over there.

I want to get some recommendations for exchange-sites where i can trade BTC and LTC.
I'm from Euro-Land so SEPA-deposits would be great.

Let me know about your positive experiences


thanks,

Looks like a DDoS.

They made the best impression on me so I'ma stick with em for a while.
I'd consider bitfinex to be a good alternative from the looks of it, but I have no experience with them other than a short, pleasant support chat.

why kraken in the first place?

why kraken in the first place?

Many order types, a few altcoins, pretty interface, leverage (disabled due to low volume for now), a bug bounty, good FAQ.

Pretty sure there's no more bug bounty going on.

For me they got everything I need (volume could be higher though)
and so far I had no troubles with them.

I just really didn't like how they handled the downtime
with not informing customers what was going on.
And after some time u start to fantasize what could be the reason and so on...

It really gave me a bad feeling,
knowing that my money is with them and I have no clue what was happening.

I hope in the future they drastically improve their SERVICE & COMMUNICATION towards CUSTOMER.
They have to fix these issues if they want to acquire more customers, get some volume and be known as trustworthy.

Bitstamp is ideal for sepa

Sorry guys, kraken works and doesn't work. Bitstamp also, could you suggest another exchange?
thanks
