Taker fees of 0.06% are hard to beat, and the copy-trading marketplace lets newer users mirror vetted strategies.

Spot liquidity is thinner than on Binance or OKX, and US residents are not served, so it is best treated as a derivatives-first venue.

Frequently asked questions

Short, dated answers. Every figure links back to the review it came from.

What is the difference between a review and a ranking?

A review is the full entity record for one platform: fees, security history, custody model, jurisdiction and hands-on notes. A ranking compares platforms on the same five weighted factors.

How do you score security?

Custody model, proof-of-reserves publication, insurance cover, past incidents and how the platform handled them. An incident we can verify lowers the score even if it happened years ago.

Can I trust the "verified" date?

Yes — it is the date a human on our team last opened the platform and checked the figures on that page, not the date the page was last edited.
