You seem a bit too eager to think that a majority of the people who are running the various websites are scam artists or con men, government agents or secret society club members. It's time to take a bit of a thinking period and ask yourself if absolutely every single exchange is some kind of grand conspiracy when there's a lot of them that work fine and have had payouts or whatever to the people who use them. I can see the thinking behind the potential of some of these exchanges opening but that's why the established exchanges remain on top.
