it is not trusted for now, poloniex and bittrex are more trusted

I definitely think shapeshift should be in the top 5. But maybe then don't use fiat?

yes , i do not think they do

The list is solid, that's what I'm using.. but hoping that blockchain based exchanges get bigger going into 2018

sure they would

Coinbase are a complete pain, but I use both Poloniex and Bittrex regularly.

I' m not sure if Coinbase qualifies as the best cryptocurrency exchange, or for exchange for a matter of fact, it's more of a gateway to an exchange, sure they have GDAX but that's it.

One of my favorite exchanges today is KuCoin. I dont know why its not on your list, been receiving so much good news at them and I just found out that they are gonna be celebrating their anniversary... https://old.reddit.com/r/kucoin/comments/9f798l/kucoins_anniversary_3_days_away/?st=jlz48of7&sh=8dd7322b ...better check it out.
