I've been trying to buy some coins on Kraken but it's taking ages to get verified. Do you recommend any other exchanges to purchase them?

@CHagans94, i use Bittrex. keep in mind every exchange has high transaction times when they experience massive surge in volume.

@CHagans94, I recommend not using Kraken at all. The system is extremely unstable, the user experience is very poor. Trading is almost impossible. The only thing I think that actually works well, is their sepa bank transfers (cashing in/out is very quick and I still use them to transfer funds between bank and crypto) and their support service is quite good. I used it for one year, it never improved despite constant promises. I suggest any other large exchange is better than Kraken.

@barclayjames, Wow, what a bummer. Most other large exchange won't even let me register cause they are overloaded such as Bittrex. Might be missing out on this opportunity.

@CHagans94, It's my opinion of course, but trading on Kraken was very frustrating. Bittrex is starting to get a bit shaky now. Have you tried Binance? Can't recommend anything else except cex.io but that is expensive.

@barclayjames, yeah Bittrex can be frustrating tbh. I made a Binance account but haven't tested it so I can't recommend it myself. But I've heard good things from Carter Thomas (Coin Mastery youtube guy) so maybe it's worth a shot.
