Thanks for the overview of all exchanges. I think the main advantage of bitstamp is that it is extremely trustworthy, being one of the space’s oldest exchanges after opening in 2011. Indeed, Bitstamp was originally created to compete with the now-infamous Mt. Gox exchange, so you can clearly see who won that competition and with API customization, investors can fine-tune how they use and facilitate their accounts. That’s a big perk for big-time traders. The user interface is a bit complicated and can prove slightly overwhelming for new users in the ecosystem
