Where is the option "None of the above"?
...
I wouldn't trust a single one of these platforms with a single satoshi.
I share your opinion, and I also can't stop being surprised that many people ask identical questions, as if, after all, people should still be encouraged to unreservedly believe that option A will be better than option B or C. As for trading, which is why centralized platforms exist, then I guess it should be most important that they have liquidity, as few fees as possible and KYC, which is not a nightmare.
I do not trust all of the news articles and the negative propaganda being written about Binance. CZ has been bailing out platforms in the cryptospace that are at risk of bankruptcy or those that have been bankrupted already. Is this the activity of company that is at risk to be bankrupt? Head scratching if you say yes.
It's your personal matter, if you want to believe that CZ is a person of high trust who does good for all of us, then live in that belief. Until recently, you had a very positive opinion about Bankman, and it turned out that he is not exactly the most intelligent, quite the opposite.
Are we witnessing the emergence of the biggest bitcoin antagonist in the cryptospace? I think Sam Bankman-Fried is one of the most intelligent founders in the cryptospace, however, I am starting to be more skeptical about his agenda. In the article, he mentioned that bitcoin may have a future as an asset, a commodity or a store of value. I am scratching my head on what he might be implying in his statement. Is he telling us that bitcoin will not forever be no.1 in market capitalization?
