Good question, i would have said Binance but not anymore (if your in the us). If your not in the US then binance as far as centralized exchanges go.
We need a Decentralized exchange thats safe with low fees and i don't know of one.
From my personal experience:
for BTC-XMR pair
- I would still advise Poloniex, if you just make a trade and immediately send funds to your wallet you reduce the risk substantially (this is true for all exchanges), if manipulation happens it affects the price on all exchanges anyway
- Binance (if not prohibited in your country)
- you can also try tokens.net, it's an exchange founded by the same guy as Bitstamp
BTC-FIAT pair
- Kraken
About decentralized exchange, you can try Bisq (I have just dowloaded app long time ago, didn't make any trades there though), fees doesn't seem too high 0,1% - 0,3%, and I think there is also a FIAT pair available there. The problem might be UX and liquidity (few months ago weekly event Monero Monday increased it, since people were encouraged to trade XMR there, don't know if this is still going on).

Your country is not supported
We are constantly working on expanding our service to as many countries as possible. Unfortunately, Tokens platform is not yet available in your country.
Bummer, i'll take a new look at kraken i guess.
Last time i tried them they had back peddled on fiat portal.
and
Poloniex is 0wned by Goldman Ballsacks! That is the Quintessential FatCat bankers we want to stay away from Dammit!https://www.goldmansachs.com/Jesus they just manipulated clams to rip off the insurance fund and then dumped all their
stolen seized coins us.
This is great news!
Any predictions from here?
I can't see us dropping lower than 0.005, that said I didn't ever think we'd get to 0.007.
Chances of BTC ATH in next 2 years: I guess 20%.
Chances of USD ATH in next 2 years: I guess 60%
Any thoughts?
Doesn't sound unreasonable if you extent the BTC timeline a bit, I expect once we start to rocket again there will be a new Floor so high that will make us all cry we didn't sell everything to be stocking up right now.
