is hitbtc reliable?: i don't know what to believe anymore: i've already read on bitcointalk it's a scam and on the contrary that i'ts more reliable than coinbase.
They were one of the first exchanges to actually offer up bitcoin cash and bitcoin pairs so i used them to dump my bitcoin cash.
It was a smooth experience actually. The deposit went through as soon as enough confirmations were gotten and withdrawal was pretty fast as well.
I've heard about hitbtc being affiliated with scams, but there is really no solid proof tbh. Also, their forum account seems to be currently tagged. The scam accusations are really really old and not sure they have been resolved or not.
I'd say use it with whatever you can lose, or do small transactions at a time.
