Those exchanges listed on the poll looks stable enough to handle a crash/dip.  If bitcoin's price starts to dip in the next couple of days  it won't make them go bankrupt where they have to stop operations. I think all of them made more than enough money to cover their losses if things go south with bitcoin.

So you're like saying, those on that list can be trusted with our holdings, even if price takes a plunge?

I'm not saying that. You shouldn't trust an exchange for your holdings regardless of the price stability, always control your private keys.
Right. Just because an exchange can handle losses that doesn't mean they could be trusted with money. No exchange is safe from getting hacked.

Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

Most of the exchanges listed above are stable one but the things here is no exchange is perfect in some cases. Better always consider the exchanges who are always accurate in the market in terms Deposits, Withdrawal, and Support Systems.

I'll eat my words lol
Even Binance is not that stable. Being down for more than 24h is just ridiculous.
Pretty sure people that didn't backed out their orders, lost some cash.

Better always consider the exchanges who are always accurate in the market in terms Deposits, Withdrawal, and Support Systems.

If that's your base requirement (which in normal times is a very decent indicator), then you can write off basically all top tier exchanges. All exchanges suffer from issues concerning deposits, withdrawals, verification taking ages to be approved, etc. One thing they have all in common, is that they suck big time in terms of their support. If it was just one exchange not being able to catch up properly, then you could blame it for being incompetent, but it's the entire economical ecosystem badly struggling to move forward. In other words, this economical ecosystem is not ready to deal with this many users. For that reason it's perfectly understandable that the entire crypto market has taken a few large steps back in terms of its price. If you want to be valued high, you should reflect that, and in case you can't reflect that, it won't be sustainable and the market corrects, which happened.

Yes this is the first time i experience that such maintenance in binance that was too long, i feel i lost more profit because of that because i cant control my coins and i see that many coins are now dropping its value too deep which is the right value to buy them and hold in few period of time.

And some exchange in a poll is stable based on my experience.

Although the choices given is good and some might be okay but for me Bittrex is a stable exchange in my opinion too which was not included on the list. Most of the trading sites are really not secured but they are manageable.

I too support the Bitrex site. I see every coin value more than any other site in the bitrex site. That you can directly check on the coinmarketcap to understand the value in every top altcoins in the market on bitrex site.
However, value will be fluctuate all the time and moreover the coins value will be different on every trading sites.

Bitcoin price might be taking a deep dive and we can just speculate about when a rebound will occur.

With this dip, how would exchanges fare? Would this cause exchanges to declare bankruptcy? Which of the top exchanges do you think, is stable and can withstand a really deep bitcoin price dive?

Exchanges will continue on with their business... Any price hikes or drops won't affect them in anyway.

The people that are losing money are the people that are storing cryptos on these exchanges. Exchanges take a net 0 house position. Think of them as an escrow. Whatever happens they'll get their share of money.

And the real people at risk here with a price dive would be the buyers/sellers, who are speculating on the price going up/down.
