Basically this here is the kindergarten
Here is the annoying part.
If icbit were legit it would be beyond successful. I had just got a few friends into bitcoin and told them to open accounts at icbit and another exchange when I had to tell them to steer clear of icbit. Just these people I almost brought would have added a lot of depth. So they make a few bucks being crooked. If they just ran things straight they would make a fortune. It makes no sense.
Your exchange seems to be run right, at least not a scam, but 30 btc to get in leaves most people, including me, out.
Bitfinex has been first rate so far. Obviously not high on your list but I have seen no major problems there.
