No one loses out by letting enough people throw enough shit at the wall. We benefit from what decides to stick.
Agree with this and I really dont think there are too many exchanges right now and that, by a process of natural selection, the bad ones will bankrupt themselves and the good ones will prevail. Myself, I think its great to be able to trade crypto 24/7 and to have a broad selection of exchanges to choose from. Some have coins that others dont have and I think its even necessary for a myriad of them to exist.
It isn't always going to be like this tho. Ten years after bitcoin was birthed, we are still in pioneer territory with regards to cryptocurrency. Gov'ts haven't started to regulate exchanges like I thought they might but I think it will happen eventually, and we will start to see a consolidation. It'll be interesting to see if any buyouts occur. Didn't Xapo get bought by an exchange? I know Xapo isn't an exchange, but the principle is the same.
Indeed, it is good to hear that there are many exchange are appearing but it is alarming as well. Do not just choose a random exchanges if really care to your assets.
Don't think anyone is saying one should choose randomly. The question is whether it is beneficial to have so many choices, which I assert it is, providing that they're legitimate.
