Exchange guide
Choose an exchange with confidence
Centralized or decentralized?
Centralized exchanges provide accounts and fiat access. Decentralized exchanges let you trade from a compatible self-custody wallet.
Fees and product fit
Compare the products you will actually use, then check trading, deposit and withdrawal costs on the exchange.
Security and availability
Review custody, proof-of-reserves evidence and eligibility for your country before depositing funds.
What is a crypto exchange?
A crypto exchange is a service or protocol used to buy, sell or swap digital assets.
How should I choose an exchange?
Start with country eligibility, security and custody, then compare products, payment methods and total costs.
Are listed exchanges endorsed?
No. Listing documents the market; only reviewed exchanges receive an editorial score or recommended placement.
