It wasn't long ago that crypto prices on Bitfinex were quite a lot higher than other exchanges because you couldn't withdraw national currencies [0]. Are their banking issues all resolved now? Also, if you're domiciled in the US, Bitfinex won't even do business with you [1]. For US customers who what to be legal, Gemini seems pretty solid and verifies new accounts quickly, though they only support Bitcoin and Ethereum [2].

  I know this, but you can still use Bitfinex by depositing crypto and using a VPN. Not really "illegal". Gemini is great, but they are slow to verify and as you stated very limited on your trading pairs.

  It is faster that Bitcoin (~2.5min avg block time vs ~10min), has a vibrant community, and still very secure. Easier entry price, and you can spend $5 without a $3 fee, or any fee at all. It also already has SegWit and has for months.

    "Easier entry price" is a non-argument, it's always been known Bitcoin would become expensive and trading in single BTC would not be viable; that's why BTC and other cryptocurrencies are expressed in floating point numbers / Satoshis. You can buy 1 Litecoin or 0.01 Bitcoin (example), doesn't matter that much other than having a full number. But the investment price is the same.

    Hopefully transaction fees will start to go down once off-chain transactions start becoming a thing.
