I have 1.59 BTC in Poloniex.
These days people are getting paranoid due the DDOS attacks.
I know having money in exchanges is stupid but that's 5% of my BTC stack and I need to have liquidity in exchanges to trade.
Im thinking about moving to Bittrex but what makes it any safer than Poloniex?
Poloniex got problems in the past hours because it got a ton of use + DDOS.
Bittrex has shitty volume compared to Polo.
I just don't see how you minimize risk moving to Bittrex. It's still a gamble.

That's a pretty life-changing amount of money, anon.

It will be rich tier in 2030 tho.
what's the point of crypto trading if every exchange is a fucking scam? I just started with cryptos and was under the impression that polio is reputable relative to the other exchanges and now I might get kiked

It's not a scam it's just a risk.
You don't own your money unless you have it with you, otherwise you are taking a certain risk.

Lol, russians are DDOSing Polo because they wont include waves on their exchange.

The time Polo got hacked they eventually paid back to their users after like a year
Bittrex has never had such problem, but it has never seen as much usage as Polo, it's even more of a gamble than Polo
Most people posting against Polo are mad that they lost money margin trading when their trading engine shat the bed

Your best bet right now is to store your coin in a personal wallet and wait until Wavesplatform dex comes out
Bittrex is safer imo because of Washington States severe crypto laws

Also aren't bittrex owners former amazon & microsoft security engineers?
On the other hand, we're not even sure what's the poloniex owners real name. And it already got hacked once.

If bitcoin reaches 1% the market cap of gold that's about $6,042, 5% it's $30,210, 10% it's $60,420, you get the idea.

When dealing with money, someone's always trying to kike you in one way or another.

Tristan D'Agosta is the Poloniex owner
How are the DDOS attack a problem? I'm curious
>altcoin and bitcoin in suits while ETH is depicted as an autist
>meanwhile in reality ETH is the one with all the major business partners
NEVER KEEP SHIT ON AN EXCHANGE
