how about Kraken, BitStamp ? ever used them ? are they OK ?

all these crypto currencies seem like a wonderful idea to take money from the people..imagine a guy that invents one of such currencies..you get the cash (and that being said "normal" money is even "funnier" then most of these cryptos), buy something real for it (houses, cars, land, whatever) and give people something that exists only in VR (even worse than a banknote paper ). later it all defaults, markets crash and you will stay with houses, lands, cars and someone else - with so called "coin"....

As for now, 90 % or even more transactions on coins are used only for speculation - meaning noone really buys or seels anything for it..makes you wonder...

I will take a risk though and buy some cryptos, not sure if BTC though
