If a particular coin has been delisted on Bittrex, its wallet is still accessible to the users so that they can withdraw them and trade them on other cryptocurrency exchanges. After certain period of time, even the wallets are deleted and Bittrex deletes them. Infact, it is going to delete a bunch of them on March 30th 2018. If you still own any of the coins given in the list shown below, we urge you to withdraw them because after March 30, they will no longer be accessible. There are some coins, whose wallets have stopped working and those coins are marked with asterisk. In such cases, there is nothing you can do.

RobinHood is being touted to be the next big cryptocurrency exchange. Some even say that it will be the next coinbase since it allows users to buy/sell cryptocurrencies using fiat money. However, RobinHood is not ‘exactly’ an exchange at all since they themselves mention that they are using existing exchanges to do the trades. In other words, rather than operating as full trading exchange like Bittrex, Binance and Poloniex, the RobinHood uses GDAX, Gemini and few others to fill the orders.
Also, there is massive confusion over the trade fees. They have made people to believe that there are no trade fees. The fine print is – “You’ll never get charged a commission or additional trading fee on top of the execution price.”
