**At the time of this post there were 50 million USD worth (14,479,783 STEEM and 471,577 SBD) stored at Poloniex **
Poloniex.com was one of the large exchange allowing STEEM and SBD trading.
**Poloniex's STEEM wallet has been neglected / Under maintenance" for more than a month. (Last outgoing transfer was on Jan 27th)**
Circle is a Goldman-Sachs backed company thus will have stronger commitment KYC/AML regulations.
People trading cryptos prefer to be anonymous so a lot of accounts might be registered with fake identities.
