Not only me, Many people thought Kucoin will be the next Binance Exchanger. Kucoin User Interface is like almost Binance, Maybe they inspired from The Binance exchange but that was cool also. Kucoin has stronger security than Binance. A few Months ago, Kucoin rank was in 12 in coinmarketcap by daily trading volume. Then what happened? People are not talking about this exchanger, I have seen Exchange related Threads but maximum people ignore this exchange, at this moment, Kucoin rank is 56!! Even Yobit, Exrates Types exchanger is in a better position than Kucoin! Do You know what is the reason behind this fall?
Stop judging based on the volume bro as that can easily be manipulated with Kucoin exchange being one of them. With respect to security, I think in that aspect, the ball is always in your court on how you are able to keep your accounts secured and make use of all the available added security features present for your account which a lot of users always take for granted until they learn the hard way, so saying that Kucoin is stronger in security than binance is a fallacy.
I have always seen Kucoin as just a wannabe binance cloned exchange, and even though I was skeptical at first, since I had some coins from ICOs listed there, I just decided to make use of it. It is not that bad to use anyway, and moreover, I am always using APIs to trade.
