List of Trustable Crypto Exchanges
Good Morning Gentlemen,
I hope this post finds you well.
I felt like a good list of trustable Crypto Exchanges was needed.
After researching, comparing and inquiring, below you may find the only trustable exchanges, currently.
I am aware that many more exist. However, they displayed red flags that cannot be ignored, such as delayed withdrawal (Shapeshift, Bithumb), selective scamming (Spectrocoin, HitBTC) and hidden fees (Changelly).
Nevertheless, any advice regarding other reliable exchanges, is more than welcome.

I made a list a while back in another thread. This is a bit updated.
Some are online only. Some are for trading only and don’t like (or even allow) third-party transfers. The British ones or the ones based in British territories usually ask for 25-100,000 GBP minimum.

With an introducer, banks in Cyprus might be an option. If you work in igaming and plan to have your salary deposited, that might be a problem. Banks in Cyprus don’t like payments to and from igaming companies.
I’m not actually recommending any of these banks. It’s just a list of banks that have been known to and/or currently seem to allow remote opening, relatively easily for EU residents/nationals with medium to high income (but not millions as required for private banking/wealth management) and who can undergo proper compliance checks.
