Polo for all their faults seems pretty decent to me. Fairly fast verification (until tier 4 then slow - still waiting), the few deposits/withdrawals have been quick, they allow you to lend unlike kraken, their platform is pretty clean. Its only been unreliable for maybe 2 hours of the 600 odd used. Cityindex and other "regular market" platforms have just the same issues when vol spikes. 3 weeks after uploading docs to kraken I am still waiting (pre-authorised approval, which allows nothing!). It was under 24 hrs with polo.

The listings/de-listings do seem suspect but are any other exchanges better? Is it just the volume and no. of holders that highlights it?

Basically why the hating on Polo? I am curious.

There were some theories that polo was behind some of the FUD campaigns against ICONOMI, being that the iconomi platform might take away some of their business. Other than that poloniex is a semi ok exchange with huge problems like ultra slow support for example. They have never been there for me when I've needed them and rarely have they been helpful at all.

That just sounds conspiracy-theory talk to me. Any proof? Poloniex is doing volumes around half a billion dollars. You really think they are going to be threatened by Iconomi's non-existent exchange? I am sure ICN can stand on its own merits, and doesn't need Poloniex's help to succeed, especially after the buybacks begin to get reported by the team.
