# Taking My Bitcoin and Crypto Off of Bittrex, Bitfinex and Poloniex. #

Over the last few weeks I have begun unwinding all of my positions on Bittrex. If I used Poloniex or Bitfinex I would have done the same. Maybe I have some serious trust issues but I sense the winds of change are in the air.

## These Centralized Crypto Trading Platforms are Just Too Dangerous for My Peace of Mind. ##

A short while ago many of you were robbed on Bitfinex. This gave me a serious feeling of uneasiness. This also prompted a few geniuses in the Crypto world to move along decentralized trading platforms. 

## The Ah Ha Moment with a Crypto Genius. ##

Last Sunday I had a working meeting with Ira Miller, the Ambassador of [Git Guild](https://github.com/GitGuild/gitguild_whitepaper). I shared with him my concerns and he promptly told me I was right to be concerned and that I should immediately take my BTC off of Bittrex. Now that was a problem because I essentially had zero BTC. I have 100% invested in Altcoins which means it takes time to unwind. I am one of those people who kept my coins on the exchange because I like the ease of access but I know this is not wise.

## What Does Ira Miller of Git Guild Recommend? ##

He told me to start using [Bitsquare](https://bitsquare.io/) in the interim. He then told me his team is working on a decentralized trading platform. Of course my interest peaked but he could not give me anymore information than that. All I know is that I am thrilled to be working so closely with a visionary of the Crypto community!

So without hesitation I recommend you begin unwinding your positions across the centralized exchanges in anticipation of the decentralized trading platform tsunami coming our way. I am going to set up my Bitsquare trading account and give it a test drive. Stay tuned for a Bitsquare review!
