Everyone here is sharing their experience about KickEx. I have also shared my trade experience in KickEx. I'm glad to use such exchange as alternative to Binance.
I have been trading there for more than 10 months without having any problems and questions. It's still less popular than Kucoin or Binance and have shady rep but growing popularity among the traders. I am not in favor of KickEx because I am not a part of the project, I don't read their twitter or other accounts. Basically, I have made many successful trades by holding kicks, it's the biggest success of my trade although they have made few cheat like sending 888888 tokens in many wallets but they couldn't sell it.
I am also dissatisfied with their marketing strategy which blew up their reputation. But I think they have good potentiality, that's why I am still trading on KickEx. Also I've heard about their popularity while ICO growing. It can be one of the factor of my trust.
