True man, we got to be extra careful in dealing with these other exchanges, Binamce provided a comfortable and soft landing for us in terms of crypto activities and the feds snatched it away from us.
I'll add to your suggestions the need for users to look out for minimum deposit as stipulated by the exchange, if there's a minimum deposit, ensure that your deposit is more than that, else the exchange will not credit your funds lost. I experienced it with Kucoin and lost my $10 dollar
Oh! so am not alone on this thought? As I read your post it just made me furious because of the funds in which I lost to same kucoin exchange and this happened because of the comfort one had with binance knowing that the minimum withdrawal is so small and efficient that almost every Bitcoin that you would send to the address would be credited on just two confirmation of the transaction. The need for everyone to check for minimum withdrawal is vital and very very important because there are some exchanges in which minimum deposit and withdrawals can be so big even beyond your thoughts.
