Although there are obvious benefits to using certain crypto exchanges over others such as high liquidity and the ability to use your fiat currency (not so difficult for those USD holders), but what other factors attract you to a crypto exchange?
When I am looking for an exchange there are 2 things that I do immediately. The first thing I do is I check the reviews, what kind of reviews, are they good, are they bad or are they fake?
Then I look at the community how large is it, if It has a strong community and good reviews It may get my attention.
Also never forget to see how long a projects been around. If they were here 4 years before the pump to 20k (usd), and did not take everyones money and bounce then that is also a great sign!
I will not even give a new exchange a chance, I like mature teams for all of my investments, with a reasonable trust with the community!
Who backs the exchange?
