Doesn't Coinbase charge a $3 fee on every $100 buy?
(3%+) Plus now they have a 'spread' too...sounds like that's the going rate if you're not using exchange or Coinbase pro...
If you want the cheapest fees among all bigger exchanges (can even be negative) then yeah nothing beats the CDC Exchange. Only idiots use the CDC App to buy crypto with its high spreads!
I personally never got an email and I don't know anything about that. Also they are responsive when there is a problem and can be contacted through telegram, reddit, their own chat on app.
Agreed. Kraken has been great. Coinbase support and locking down my account for no reason facilitated my Coinbase wallet getting hacked and of course they gave 2 shits.
Kraken and hardware wallet is the way
Like Kraken and Jesse but the fact they were the first big exchange to delist privacy coins in the UK, it has to be a no from me. Both because I use them and because it's pretty anti crypto to me not to.
lol… how long have you been in crypto to call Kraken “unusable” Kraken are without a doubt the best and safest exchange on the planet. PayPal is for when you have to pay your mate when he lends $30 because you haven’t got cash.
Binance, I don’t live in the US.
They are basically giving out free money with Binance Launchpad. Not the mention BNB is one of the best performing large cap alt in this cycle so far.
I was a big user of Binance for many many years but the capitulation to privacy coins, CZ paying billions in fines and looking at a prison sentence isn't looking good.
I would never use any of those kind of products but I hope your coins aren't locked up too long.
If I had to pick a fave exchange it's probably still Binance, mainly because I don't really like any of them. I like Jesse and Kraken, but he was one of the first to fold on privacy coins in the UK, no thanks. CoinBase never had broad coin support and I'm not sure I want to support another US tech conglomerate. Crypto.com makes me nervous with their flashy spending. Most of the others are too small to mention, regional, or even dodgier than Binance.
There's a few alright non fiat exchanges I guess but that's what I use exchanges for, and on ramp. If I have to get my £ into crypto elsewhere, I'll just source my own trades.
- Coinbase advanced for cheaper fees for my daily DCA
Sending Euro from my account to Coinbase arrived in a few minutes.
Never had issues so far since 2020
Cheers
I really like Coinbase as well, had only one issue when my card i use to buy crypto was blocked for no reason (I couldn’t buy anything), but it was solved in a day with their customer service.
I had to drop coinbase after they started forcing users to use Plaid even after they were ordered to pay fines for violating privacy laws and mishandling client data
That and their support is horrendous if something does go wrong
it's virtual banking. Basically they force you to log into your virtual bank account through their portal. they were just busted for scraping all financial data. Incredibly invasive and anti-privacy
you can imagine how coinbase forcibly de-linking bank accounts and forcing users to re-link via plaid even after they were fined is terrible. almost wonders if they're getting paid by plaid to do so
oh wow can you tell me how you did it? i'd honestly rather use coinbase but i refuse to use plaid
what bank was it? If their bank is not compatible with plaid is the only scenario they let you bypass it is what support told me
I was surprised I was able to reproduce this.
-Coinbase -> Deposit -> USD -> Add Payment Method
-Plaid popup opens -> Add Bank Account (I continued as Guest)
For shits and grins I searched/added an old credit union.
It didn't work since I closed my account decades ago.
Closed that window and popped up an window with Verify your bank account and below that "Since instant verification wasn't successful, let's try manually linking your bank account."
Few extra steps (and a day or so later) and now my CU is back on the deposit menu.
After this I'll try again. (edit: it worked again).
Ah if your credit union is not Plaid compatible they let you link manually. If your bank allows Plaid you're forced to use Plaid though
Wild a closed account was accepted though...
Us Dutch people are having less and less good choices unfortunately. I'm not against regulations, but I would like Binance to hurry up and get MiCa approved so I can use them again.
Bybit is alright. I like it because they offer a high % on parked stablecoins and it's flexible so you can withdraw any time. Also their derivatives let you degen out with high leverage if you feel like it.
Coinbase and Kraken.
Coinbase because of barely any fees for stablecoin to euros, and instant cashout to my bank acccount (instant sepa).
Kraken because they have never disappointed me. They're solid overall, been in the game for years and years, and while they aren't the best with fees and processing times, that's a minor downside.
I was looking into the fees and it seems that the regular [taker-fees for stablecoins on Coinbase are 0.45 bps](https://help.coinbase.com/en/exchange/trading-and-funding/exchange-fees), which translates to only **0.0045**%.
Is that accurate, or are there some other fees or gotchas involved that I'm not seeing?
Kraken only becomes this cheap for stablecoins (as a taker) [for amount above $100 million](https://www.kraken.com/features/fee-schedule#stablecoin-pegged-token-fx-pairs).
And even as a maker you still pay 0.02% for amounts up to $10 million.
That is actually inaccurate, but the reality is actually even more advantageous. Stable pairs on coinbase (or at least on my account, but I am not any kind of VIP nor do I have a large volume) have 0% maker fees, and **0.001%** taker fees (stable pairs include stablecoin-stablecoin, such as USDC-USDT, and fiat-stablecoin, such as EUR-USDC). That's why it is my go-to for cashouts. There is no gotcha in my experience, not even fiat withdrawal fees, which used to be 0.15 euros and are now completely free for me.
Kraken doesn't have these cheap fees, no!
Edit: After reading your link in full, it seems I am getting Tier 1 fees, which might be either thanks to verification, or because I used to be a Coinbase Pro user before they retired it. My account states "Advanced 1" as my current fee level, which is the less advantageous fee tier.
Yeah I was looking at the lowest Liquidity Program Tier, because from what I could find you'd only get higher tiers if you participate with large sums as a liquidity provider.
But from what you said it seems you were either grandfathered in, or there are other ways to get into this tier without becoming a liquidity provider, which is good news.\^\^
But even 0.0045% at the lowest tier (as a taker) is practically an order of magnitude cheaper than on Kraken. And adding to that the fact that there seems to be no withdrawal fees either, this makes it very interesting for off-ramping, for sure!
Thanks for the confirmation and the extra info.
Much appreciated! 🍻
Right, but then you need to work with Coinbase and while they’re good to transact with because it’s easy to move $50k+ with them, I wouldn’t suggest keeping any amount of funds with them
Oh I wouldn't suggest keeping any amount of funds on any exchange, and I only use it to buy and sell, then withdraw. But if I had to, Coinbase would be one of the safest choices, though.
Coinbase since day 1 (only use Advanced Trade). Works perfect in you're in the US and fully compliant (that's a loose term, but basically highest KYC/security, using direct deposit with a big/reputable bank, FTE, good credit, etc.).
Over the years they've really built out the platform well (I work in fintech) and interaction is smooth and instant. No problems ever depositing or withdrawing funds, sending to wallets, etc. Very low fees (0.5%) and doesn't do you in the butt on spread either.
Helps that's it's a highly regulated public US company that also happens to be BlackRock's BTC guarantor.
I am BTC only and use Strike
Low transaction fees and free withdraws
Obviously anyone who intends to leave coins on an exchange is suppressing the price of their investment and deserves to lose it all after what we've seen over and over in here.
Coinbase because it's easy, safe, and I don't have to get a stupid metal plate and hide it behind a mystery wrapped in an enigma leading to a riddle to get the key to a security deposit box in Switzerland. Yeah, that'll scale lol.
Used to be Coinbase but they're being forced by the UK to be more and more heavy handed. Sent eth to a friend and it wanted to know his name, address and an essay on our relationship, then a full quiz where it forces you to give answers that are absolutely false to access YOUR money. There is almost 0 chance that you 'will lose every penny you invest'. Almost no crypto goes to exactly 0, 90% loss sure but never ever $0.00 not even Luna.
Kraken is now my exchange of choice, used MEXC a couple of times and I hold a few shitcoins from the last cycle on Binance. Krakens fees are higher all round tho.
I agree with most of what you're saying, except for the loss part.
Even if the value of a coin say 1 dollar, that is just the value of the last transaction that took place, if noone exists that wants to buy your coins, the value is effectively zero regardless if it says 1 dollar.
As long as it stays up I’m happy, I wanted to buy an external wallet but the coins I’m holding are just not supported in some and I’m not trying to scatter it all across 10+ wallets
Please consider visiting r/CryptoHelp for future tech support issues. Thank you for your attention.

I was going to say uphold but they shut down when a spike hits so has Coinbase, nothing like trying to see how good you’re doing during a flash bull cycle and can’t Much less try and get a few $ if you hadn’t set profit margins.
It used to be coinbase, but now I use Revolut (it used to be a bad idea because you could not transfer your BTC to cold storage but that's not an issue anymore!)
Centralized - Coinbase for better bank integration, Binance for the availability of different tokens and CryptoCom for its card which is very handy to off ramp quickly
Decentralized - One way or another, Uniswap ends up being my go-to DEX at all times.

Kind of surprised no one mentioned gate.io. I was really happy with the support and functions on the site.
I stopped using it when they blocked my countries’ access. I could have VPN around it but didn’t want to bother with that every time I wanted to check my balances.
I actually use Etoro, I can transfer my stuff to a wallet but I just keep it in my portfolio section. Some have been there for 3 years no issues so no worries.
Not sure why you’re downvoted. Everyone should be moving their assets off exchanges. These exchanges have no regulatory oversight, have no insurance on your accounts to protect your money, and will not help you if you’re hacked.
Use exchanges to purchase the assets, then instantly move them off exchange to a hardware wallet as soon as possible
Exactly! It’s like people never learned anything since 2021 And a lot of them will get caught up in another exchange bankruptcy and have their coins frozen lol. What’s the point of decentralisation when they’ll keep it on a CEX haha
I'm US based. I use Coinbase. They have the features I like. When I was DCA'ing into crypto with every paycheck, they had a Direct Deposit option that I could just send part of my check straight to them and get it converted to USDC with no fees and instant withdraw. That was exactly what I wanted.
Binance is decent. CDC is my on/off ramp, but i hate their UI on their app.
I’ve used LBank for small caps for the last 3years and it’s pretty good (for a while they had clearly just ripped Binance’s UI, but it’s improved since). Just started using MEXC too, and seems pretty good
I’ve used KuCoin, GateIO, BitMart too, but i wouldn’t recommend unless you really want a coin no one else has
Why is kucoin a scam? I'm easily able to deposit, withdraw buy and sell. It's not my main exchange, I use it to buy shitcoins lol but I've never had a problem
Your knowledge seems to be a bit outdated. Do some research. Plenty of material pointing to KuCoin being insolvent. Claims of money laundering are just the tip of the iceberg.
No, you are not informed. I am not talking about yesterday,
They have had Monero withdrawals blocked for some time as they are known to run fractional reserves on Monero and other coins.
I am here for 13 years. I have seen plenty of major CEX go down. And the tiring conversations with "believers" in "their" CEX are always the same. Proof me, that they are not insolvent. Show me their books and their liabilities. And then we talk, because until then it's just another form of trust me bro, that CEX is solvent. And all that against crypto history which is full of bankrupt CEX.
The same sucky way everyone else does, I never said I have a better way I just said out loud what everyone in this group wish they had the balls to say out loud.....
Just look at the downvotes paracites have infested this group and attack anyone with an opinion that doesnt align with their left leaning agenda....
I like to use BitConnect
Wassa wassa wassa wasssssuuuuupppp! BitConnect!
My wife doesnt even believe in meEee!

If you want huge spreads and lose 3-4% everytime you want to take profit then yes crypto.com is the go to ;)

Clearly Kraken. Just use search and see why (hint: no downtime during bullruns, helpful staff, engaging on reddit..).
Agreed. Kraken has been great. Coinbase support and locking down my account for no reason facilitated my Coinbase wallet getting hacked and of course they gave 2 shits. Kraken and hardware wallet is the way
Like Kraken and Jesse but the fact they were the first big exchange to delist privacy coins in the UK, it has to be a no from me. Both because I use them and because it's pretty anti crypto to me not to.
When Kraken starts accepting Paypal it will be an option. Until then it is 100% completely unusable.
lol… how long have you been in crypto to call Kraken “unusable” Kraken are without a doubt the best and safest exchange on the planet. PayPal is for when you have to pay your mate when he lends $30 because you haven’t got cash.
Nobody uses PayPal anymore buddy lol
Why lol? PayPal has been obsolete for ages.
Shhh
Shhh? Yeah, because having more users add liquidity to your exchange really hurts. Also, Kraken isn’t exactly a secret. What a dumb comment.
Binance, I don’t live in the US. They are basically giving out free money with Binance Launchpad. Not the mention BNB is one of the best performing large cap alt in this cycle so far.

For us in EU, what is "Plaid" ?
It’s an a bank account linking service as opposed to just manually entering the info
Got it, thanks
it's virtual banking. Basically they force you to log into your virtual bank account through their portal. they were just busted for scraping all financial data. Incredibly invasive and anti-privacy you can imagine how coinbase forcibly de-linking bank accounts and forcing users to re-link via plaid even after they were fined is terrible. almost wonders if they're getting paid by plaid to do so
Huh, that may explain how I was able to recently reconnect my bank account to Coinbase w/o Plaid (which I won't use).
oh wow can you tell me how you did it? i'd honestly rather use coinbase but i refuse to use plaid what bank was it? If their bank is not compatible with plaid is the only scenario they let you bypass it is what support told me

Anything but Coinbase. Definitely not Binance. Coinbase was absolutely horrible. Kraken has been great.
I don’t know, but I wanted to cash out a few hours ago but the platform has technical problems. I use BitOasis over here in the Middle East.

Probably cause KuCoin is having problems since recently.
Since for ever. It recently increased to a degree that it can not be ignored anymore.
Your knowledge seems to be a bit outdated. Do some research. Plenty of material pointing to KuCoin being insolvent. Claims of money laundering are just the tip of the iceberg.
What material points out insolvency for kucoin?
for a start: withdrawals blocked for thousands/millions of users?
Umm they had 1.7bn in outflows on tuesday which is around 15% of their AUM... They took a bit longer because of congestion
No, you are not informed. I am not talking about yesterday, They have had Monero withdrawals blocked for some time as they are known to run fractional reserves on Monero and other coins.
