What exchange to use a US Citizen Abroad?

So apparently, I found out that Binance.com no longer allows US customers anymore even abroad.  A while back i used binance and traded btc for altcoins there.  I heard binance no longer allowed US customers but because im abroad pretty much all the time, well I didn't think it was a big issue as I log into binance.com without any issue.  I also never was verified there.  I heard it first was with US IP addresses that they banned but apparently its for anyone that is a US citizen.  So because of that, I know i can't use binance.com anymore as an American abroad.



Now my question is... what exchanges can I use as an American that is abroad all the time?  I know i could use coinbase/bitstamp without an issue from what I read online.  I assume Kraken as well?  But those would be for the main coins like btc/eth etc.  But if i want to trade for altcoins, what are my options?  I previously used bittrex a while back while abroad... but then they no longer allowed any customers from a particular state in the US... so i had to withdraw.  I was also verified on bittrex and because of that, i could not use bittrex anymore.




I heard people who use binance.com in the US... then moved on to binance.us... which is basically almost the same thing?  Its only with other us traders right?  But is there a ton of volume there?  And do they have the exact coins that are traded in binance.com?  The thing though is i wouldn't be able to use binance.US while outside the US right?  I would sign up for an account while abroad... so would there be issue with this?
