the emerging volume on Kraken

[Mieehayii]

In my new year prediction, I predict that LakeBTC will surpass BTC-e by volume, but it's now that the 24h-volume of Kraken is almost over LakeBTC. The world of Bitcoin is a fascinating place, and countless facts has proved, bitcoin no prophecy, only unexpected

well after all the rubbish disaster that gox and bitstamp created, people will surely look for the third alternative, and it's not btc-e apparently

Kraken seems like a safe bet im not surprised its growing, looking for it to be up with bitstamp in a year.   The CEO is known and trusted + very good technically.  The site is also backed by roger ver.

Gox ceo was known also and  trusted...not saying that it has to happen again. Only as an compartion.

MK was a little shifty though, he also never delivered on time and the exchange ran slow.  But yeah i didnt think gox would go down and he certainly tricked me into thinking he was trustworthy as regards holding the funds.

Well, he tricked every one of us so you aren't only one let's hope it won't happen again.

I still don't know if Hanlon's Razor is applicable to MK's handling of Gox or not. My guess is that it will be.

That is the beauty of btc as it is full of surprises. Whether it is the price or exchangers, it will have you looking in disbelief in things that you least expect to happen

btc-e lost player cuz they dont want to involve some coin that they asked on chat so apparently people like to have more coin to trade.

I'd love to see Kraken embrace more alts. The only reason why I have to use BTC-E, is that they have nice volume with couple of interesting alts.
Otherwise, I think that BTC-E is as shady as can be. They are actually constantly banning out people from the trollbox, who think that bitcoins price will drop more, or if someone gives constructive criticism towards the mechanics of bitcoin. And these aren't some rare short-length bans, these bans are regular and last 7-30days. No cursing or foul language involved either. Just disagree with the "to the moooon" howling moderator and get banned for your opinion.

I'll celebrate the day when I don't have to use BTC-E any longer.

Kraken's volume is growing now because of the Euro dropping against USD.

BTC-E is a more than decent exchange.

I like them because they don't add shitcoins just to make a few extra bucks.

Site admin have stated to not add any altcoin because they are insta/pre-mined.

Instead, they are delisting TRC, FTC, XPM... Says enough.

What if Kraken is waiting for high volume before pulling an Mt Gox? its difficult to trust exchanges at this point.

Glad they are delisting those coins, first ive heard of it. BTC-e is a good exchange but they have added and delisted many shit coins since i've been trader there for about 2 years.  Remember china coin? lol

i trust kraken, never had any problem with, them, and the important thing is that they don't require ID for low amount, i have always hated when they need that for "security" reason, when then they have plenty of security holes, how funny "cough bitstamp cough"

I'm thinking Coinbase will take many of Kraken's US customers.

*most of us customers

There are usually signs.

The main thing for me is CS. Verification was fast and mostly painless, they use physical 2FA, any questions I have are answered quickly and politely and usually to my satisfaction. Any of that starts to change, it might be time to reconsider.

[coinpr0n]

Kraken worked well for me, only a little delay in the verification process. Deposits and withdrawals have usually been same-day.
