There have been many issues with crypto exchanges recently:
- Closed to new clients
- Wallets locked
- De-listing your coins without sufficient notifications.
- Unable to generate deposit addresses
- Down for extended periods of time
I have had problems with BitTrex being unable to generate deposit addresses for coins I had previously downloaded to my Nano Ledger FROM BitTrex. Kucoin had those coins and I was able to generate the addresses and deposit my coins. I received nothing but the generic response from BitTrex support in over a week. Other issues like wallets being down for days due to "routine maintenance" and de-listing coins without proper notification has been annoying as well.
I've been using Kucoin for about a week now based on a recommendation from @pandorasbox. Signup was simple and only took minutes! Not weeks like some exchanges. It is easy to use and much more hi-tech than other exchanges I've been using. They are adding more coins constantly and they have 5 main pairings. They also have a banner with current news/info about coins and events.
