I lost around $2000 on BTC-e. Now I'm using Bittrex. But I wanted to ask. Is there a list somewhere of the exchanges that are legal and have all the proper licenses in place? Is Bittrex one of those? I don't want to be caught in this type of shit again.

Just look for ones that require verification and have explanations about KYC and AML laws. I'll do a bit of research later because I certainly don't want to use one that might end up getting shut down.

You lost the amount? You mean that you had fiat cash in the exchange and you could not withdraw it before the site was closed down? I don't know if you need to worry about it. The official BTC-e twitter handle claimed yesterday that they will be back within the next 10 days. I don't know it is going to happen or not, but the chances are that your fiat/coins are going to be safe.

I had some in coins and some in cash. I hope it will come back but it seems unlikely now that it has been seized by the US authorities. Maybe they will sort a way to give back the funds to legitimate users hopefully.

Is there any info on whether they have seized coins? I'd love to know whether they can legally seize the assets of foreign users because I'm not sure what grounds they would have as this is hardly a darknet site.

I'm also looking for the next best thing. I don't mind verifying my ID but am looking for an exchange that you can buy/trade LTC, ETH and XRP with BTC.

There is bitfinex. Their liquidity (and fees) are probably better than btc-e was anyway.

I'll check it out along with some of the others people mentioned later.
