It's important to mention that while I do agree with most points, we shouldn't just write off Bittrex entirely.

If you have been following their actual USD pairs, you'll see that they have increased in volume significantly in the last few months. Admittedly, the volume is still pretty low, but the growth indicates more popularity in that aspect.

Everything that contributes to less USDT dominance in this industry is a welcome addition, and I think Bittrex definitely deserves more credit for that. Maybe they'll be able to recover from their slump in overall volume.

I hope that Binance will list actual fiat pairs as well, but I don't think they will any time soon. Binance has been growing consistently where adding fiat pairs only triggers regulators to step in and force through their will.
