Used local bitcoins to buy my first bitcoin, but it's too pricey to use it all the time. btc-e and kraken - easiest verification(or no verification at all)

Try www.100bit.co.in as an alternative to LocalBitcoins. It offers 0.1% trading fee as against LocalBitcoin's 1%.

I like Bittrex. Deposits are relatively quick and withdrawals are near instant

LocalBitcoins for me. I'm a New Zealander and it's not easy to buy from many of the already established exchanges out there and even if they do accept international customers, it can takes days to weeks for the funds to show up in your account. Plus wire transfers have huge fees and many of the payment processors that exchanges use tend to be quite shady as well. Not sure if the situation has changed since last year but I remember BTC-e also had a minimum deposit size that was far too large for someone like me who just wanted to buy a few BTC at a time.
New Zealand does have a few exchanges of its own and I've used services which allow you to buy BTC via a credit/debit card but I've found that neither option is any cheaper than buying from LocalBitcoins anyway.
As long as the buyer/seller has a good feedback score and trade history, then it should be pretty safe too. I've bought and sold using LocalBitcoins >20 times over the past year and all my trades have been very satisfactory so far.
Would localbitcoins be the best option for Australians?

I'm using OKCoin as of last month. Tried forex trading and failed. Not gonna do forex trading again. Anyway, if I have to trade my Bitcoin to USD or CNY, I will use OKCoin since I already understand their website.

So sad! This profile does not appear as the #1 result (on anonymous) Google searches anymore.
Time to be active on the crypto forums again? Proud to be one of the few Legendary members of the Sparkie Red Dot!
Gonna put this on my resume if I ever join a cryptocurrency/blockchain industry!

Have any exchanges implemented a proof of reference to verify their reserve amounts?

uhh, good point. I'm actually not aware if any exchange exposing their reserves publicly, but for sure they had lot of wallets so is not even possible to track them.

that depends on what type of exchanging you are going to do,
are you trading coins or are you purchasing bitcoin or other coins ?
it also depends on where you live ............ before i could make a recommedation....
just don't keep your coins on an exchange , keep them locked in your wallet

I have programmed an exchange system in an investment site. But it is so far only for very small amount (under $1.00 or $2.00) and the "ask" is not yet in run... I have already investors who invest in satoshis and will withdraw in PM or OKPay. Some will use their balance to buy banner ads space,so i have fund to exchange. But as said it is more for the many many people who have few dollars in an ecurrency earnt with PTC.

What country is it operating in? Is it following financial laws? I just think doing what your saying legally will be hard. Most countries that are worth operating in to make people feel safe have lots of requirements for exchanges.

Are you sure they have quick response? I always thought they were slow their old thread is here - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=40889.0. It's now locked but many people have said how slow they are. Maybe it has changed though, that would be nice.

I don't know how anyone define their 'quick'. I can wait they're always response. Thread locked... so? To get their support must send ticket on BTC-e website.

My point is read a few pages before they locked their thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=40889.1740Many many people posting issues and not getting responses. The got known for crappy support. They closed their thread because it was just complaints. This could have changed it has been a while. But I would not give them a grade A support record such as circle or coinbase, etc.

I prefer Cryptsy. My biggest problem is that sometimes things take a little longer to load. Other than that, they have a lot of good trading combinations.
