It is also important to know that Poloniex was hacked a short time after it was launched in 2014 but since there was no similar incidents happening on their platform.
After being bought and managed by a different company in 2019 Poloniex started to come back to life as they removed multiple restrictions like forced KYC and improved their customer support.
