Poloniex is definitely extremely sketchy. Here's a link on the founder, Tristan D'Agosta. He has a music degree from Rutgers and is supposedly running Poloniex, really? Not to mention that his name is from the Italian royal family. The question isn't whether he's running Poloniex, the question is rather "Who is really running Poloniex?"

Unfortunately D'Agosta is not the only sketchy persona in cryptocurrency sphere. I've been looking more sceptically at Clif High and the Web Bot report lately as well. I would highly suggest having a look at my latest post on Clif High and what I've noticed.
