Best Bitcoin Exchanges
You may buy bitcoin at many places, but how to chose the perfect one?
Everything depends on few criteria: location, preferred payment method, the level of anonymity and bitcoin rate.
We'll start with international exchanges.
Coinbase - supporting many countries worldwide, accepts bank transfer, credit cards and more payment options. Furthermore, it probably most popular Bitcoin exchange platform available right now. However, privacy is equal to zero, because for any actions you may provide your documents.

Exmo - a lot of deposit methods available (incl. Perfect Money, MoneyPolo, Advcash, Neteller, etc.). Supports many countries, however USA isn't supported. In addition, trading platform is provided.

Coinmama - purchase may be made by credit card only. However, the list of supported countries is very long. So it's convenient place to buy coins with a card.

LakeBTC - probably the longest list of deposit/purchase methods supported. Works in many countries also, including USA (still New York is excluded). Sometimes Bitcoin rate could be smaller.

Changelly - despite Bitcoin support, it allows to trade tons of other cryptocurrencies. Purchase can be made via Credit Card. The list of supported countries is long enough also. However, crypto rate should be much lesser than it usually is.

Coinhouse - France based bitcoin exchange. Allows deposits via credit/debit cards, Neosurf and bank transfer (not for everyone). Fees could be better, however security is amazing.

BitBay - BitBay HQ is located in Poland. Besides exchange option, it has trading platform as well (with many supported currencies). Privacy is better than its competitors. Deposits may be done via credit card, wire transfer and more options for residents of Poland.

I'm still researching for best Asia exchanges (apart from LakeBTC which works great in Asia countries or Exmo which supports these countries also) including countries such as India, Philippines, etc.
