False data and manipulation everywhere.

I see that bitcoincharts' 30d data differs from bitcoinity's hugely for some reason. On bitcoinity, btc-e is third with 569k, but on bitcoincharts it is first with 844k.

Compare:
http://bitcoincharts.com/markets/
http://bitcoinity.org/markets/list?currency=USD&span=30d

Goes to show how little you can trust those websites. Sad

BTCe volume is about as real as that on Houbi.

Side note: Anyone else find it interesting that BTCe's trade engine can handle such extraordinary volume, not just bitcoin but all the alts too, without significant lag? Hmm...
I don't think its fake, just a lot of bots in play and the fee is low compared to other exchanges. I've been able to do large trades there just fine. As for the speed, I always thought it was the vodka-powered Russian engineering. It really is a great platform to use. When the shit is hitting the fan(high volume), you can count on btce to run like a well-oiled Russian nuclear war machine while all the other exchanges crap out.

What do you think those bots are doing? They are likely owned by the same trader or a small group working together. I wouldn't be surprised to learn they have a special no-fee arrangement with BTCe.

because it is the best Exchange  Wink

Yep they rob their customers Wink
Just to clarify I know someone who lost 2 BTC without getting any confirmation emails... nothing... I don't trust them any more.
I'm skeptical of some of the stories I hear about BTC-E. Yes -- support is abysmal. People freak out when funds aren't credited, etc. and no can speak English to them. LOL. But most claims I see like this follow a pattern: newbie goes apeshit, accuses BTC-E of scamming, then disappears after the issue was presumably resolved -- without ever mentioning the outcome.

It's by far my favorite exchange. Good trade engine, low commissions, no dox, very volatile. I've been trading there since April and never had a problem. (Of course, I don't deposit and withdrawal fiat.)

Btce users will point out a 100btc trade on gox while ignoring the 1000btc trade that just happened at the same time on their own exchange.
It's really insane. Yesterday I remember we rallied ~ $35 or so in 5 minutes, seemingly on the basis of a ~60 BTC market buy on Gox. Then fell right back...

*edit*

Also interesting are the frequent account log outs after dumping begins. How much does one have to pay the operators to get dump priority?

I heard more rumours about dissapeared coins. Never had any problems myself so far, and its pretty nice to change to alts sometimes.
