Topic: ****NEED TRUSTED EXCHANGES OTHER THAN MT.GOX***** (Read 570 times)

despite their many problems and severe lack of communications, they are the only exchange I would trust with any amount of $ or BTC in...

if there was a better option, it would become the monopoly

I like BTC-E and Bitstamp.

BitcoinsCanada.ca is a good place to start. LitecoinsCanada.ca is also a good site.

None of them can be 100% trusted. But I like BTC-E

Thanks so much we have a good community there.

I think the Mt.Gox monopoly is coming to an end.

thanks!

You can find the list in here

There are two canadian trades that would allow you quicker (and cheaper) deposits and withdrawals...
Also once you buy coins you can move them to other exchanges if you plan to trade them...

hope it helps

Hey people we should start throwing out some info on other Bitcoin Exchanges besides MT.Gox that have stayed up while Mt.Gox is down and that you have personally dealt with. No "Well I heard from a friend that says they are really great" so seriously only post those you have personally dealt with and anything about that exchange or your experiences with that exchange or say ease of depositing or and withdrawing. Is it as easy to get your money back after you sell your bicoins as it was to deposit for them. So like I said personal experiences and I would like to hear people's personal experiences with Mt.Gox but hopefully we can all learn some new things here and help diversify the bitcoin trading.

   I live in Canada and used the first name that googled up for me which was Virtex Bitcoin Exchange. First I like the fact that even as Mt gox has been down alot now Virtex has continued to trade through with remarkable stability. Their 3% fee per trade is high but it aparently includes taxes as they have a good legal team and are really trying to legitimize BTC.They recently had and IPO and sold 10,000/10% shares within 12 hours and they have seen huge increases in accounts as well but are upgrading and doing the nessacary hiring to keep up. They have Good security keeping a large portion of client btc in cold storage. And its anonymous unless u wish to have a verified account. Deposits are easy just take cash down to one of the banks they hold accounts in deposit the cash and it shows up in your account and you are ready to trade within a few hours. Virtex does not buy the bitcoins for you so you can purchase at asking price or put in a lower bid open trade. The verified account increases your deposit and withdrawl limits. Its downfall is that it deals in Canadian dollars but they are definately worth a google-obi
