As you can see from these 2 screenshots, there is an almost 10% gap between Poloniex and Bittrex::
The fact that Poloniex still has a frozen Steem wallet is not good at all, IMHO.

It is really annoying how poloniex keeps freezing their wallet.
It is clearly leading a huge decline in the use of the exchange as other people have experienced problems there not only with steem but also other cryptos
At least it has paved the way for better exchanges to get bigger.

I think there is a little pump in bittrex. All pump groups moved into bittrex

Haven't even logged into my poloniex account since the troll box was full of nothing but lost fund requests and ddos was a regular occurrence

It's strange! @exyle wrote about his doubts about Poloniex earlier too.
What's going to happen to the Steem price if they're discovered to be insolvent? They're the biggest holder of liquid Steem, slightly worrying, but getting ready to buy the dip!

So, if Poloniex's wallet is frozen, does that mean there's no way to take advantage of this - or can you still buy now but not send to yourself on Steemit?

I used Bittrex to buy some STEEM today. I think the exchange rate for STEEM/XBT was at about 0.0005 when the order filled. I'm glad I chose Bittrex as I'm still new to this game and learning. That's disappointing to hear that people are having problems with poloniex and it was sheer luck that I chose Bittrex as I just opened the account a few days ago for the sole purpose of buying STEEM.
I use Kraken for some other currencies and usually coinbase to fund everything as they aren't as stringent about verification / tier levels especially with the modest amount of money I'm using to trade.
