Yeah, that's why I tell newbies that time better spent would be familiarizing themselves with blockchain and wallet uses rather than chasing 10k satoshi at a faucet. What the hell...He sent 800 btc (about $380,000) to an address that he didn't even know what it was... You would be surprised how many times people have sent coins to the wrong place because they only look at the 1st 2 or 3 digits, or only the last 2 or 3. Addresses are to be copy-paste, NOT typed in. Hand typing is always error prone. Copy/Paste doesn't fix the issue if you select the wrong thing to copy, or if you think you hit Ctrl-C and you end up hitting CTRL-X or something. This was the discussion of the forums back in 2011 when the coins went from $1 to $30, people were killing themselves (figuratively) for losing thousands of BTC then!

But, I would expect them to double and triple check the address before pushing the "send" button, especially when they are making such a huge tx.

I am using BTC-e for exchange . I need Perfectmoney and btc-e converts my BTC to Perfectmoney on less exchange fee. BTC-e executes all account withdrawals right away or in 1-2 days. it has good online support on site for their customer. It is also good exchange where I can trust . I am feeling safe there ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

Well I just realized Poloniex did not charge me a fee to withdraw my coins and another exchange charged me. Also I think they had higher fees so Polo is a favorite for me at the moment. I do have to read over the fees of the exchanges I use because I've never compared them to see which is the best option but not being charged a fee to withdrawal is always nice..

Bitstamp. It seems to me it is the most trusted big exchange (comparing to the mysterious btc-e, the dead mtgox and the 0% fee Chinese exchanges).

Poloniex is my favorite, as they are always adding new features to their site.

No no it does not It does have a lot of altcoins though that can be then moved to a proper exchange Tssk read bitcoin exchange wrong In that case vaultofsatohi, not mintpal XD, cavirtex, or canadianbitcoins work Quickbt for mobile phones and quick loading but its expensive because its interac debit. Then Bitcoin ATMs lol.

BTC-e and Cryptsy are the ones I use primarily, but if I'm dumping coins that aren't on those sites, I have to go where they're traded. Cryptsy has a massive amount of coins to trade with and is the most practical, but sometimes having BTC-e's lower Bitcoin value or the like is favorable. BTC-e and BitFinex are actually lower than most trading sites because of the fact that they offer their traders leverage. This makes it so that someone with a leverage of x2 can trade with $200 instead of $100. While this sounds like a good deal, if you loose the $200, you have to pay back the $100 leverage. That makes for the value to be usually lower than other sites.
