What's the best platform and why?
Which ones are reliable and which ones are scams?
I notice that a lot of binary options companies have switched over to offering bitcoin trading opportunities, but these for sure are a scam.
Anyone have any thoughts on this?
I have 3 trading platforms in mind and I use all of them for a reason.
Binance - new kid on the block backed by not a new kid in the block in term of running a trading site. This trading platform listens to their users and they even run contests which I never heard of from other long time running platform. They also give commissions thriugh referrals. Their support is responsive.
Bittrex - unfortunately this trading platform stopped accepting new registrations but for me this platform still is a good platform with a lot of trading pairs to offer. Their user interface is very user friendly and easy to understand. Support is not very responsive but according to many old time users, reason why they are slow in processing requests and responding to client queries is because of the congestion of tickets filed multiple times by those who cant wait for response from the admin (I don't buy that alibi).
Poloniex - i started to trade using this platform and from time to time I still go back and trade using this platform. They also have a lot of trading pairs to offer and some of them are not available in either of the trading platform that I mentioned above. Like Bittrex they have a problem with answering client queries through tickets but they also have the same reason given by Bittrex, Congestion.
There are other good platforms out there like Cryptopia and KuCoin but I dont use them as much as I use Binance, Bittrex and Poloniex.
