Hello WORLD :)

newbie in cryptocurrency here ;D

can somebody recommend me where you guys exchange crypto currency ?  do you use big sites like kraken , coinbase etc.. ?

is there some automatic exchange website which is popular and safe to trust and does not take high fees for exchange ?

is it possible to exchange without fee ? :)  mostly wondering about BCH -> BCC   


thanks for help

Hey ! I recommend you exchanges that allow you access to private keys for example you can go for etherdelta he gives access to private key and you can trade altcoins.
For bitcoin and other reputable coins I recommend bittrex / kraken / poloniex.
Be careful ! If you do not have access to the private key the exchange can be hacked and all data lost!

Well it depends on what you are trying to accomplish as there are a lot of different websites but I will try to do my best to break it down. If you want to trade alt coins and already have BTC then the best websites include

1. Bittrex
2. HitBTC
3. Binance
4. Poloniex

If you want to accumulate BTC then you would likely need to visit

1. Kraken
2. Bitstamp
3. Coinbase
4. Gemini

If you want to trade alts but not on a centralized exchange then visit websites like

1. Waves
2. Etherdelta
3. Other DEXs (idk many)

Hope that content helped you out a bit!

It depends what you want to be involved in. If you want to buy the main coins eg bitcoin,litecoin and ether then the big exchanges are ok but if you want ether tokens then there is really only etherdelta.

Buy Bitcoins or Ethereum I use www.bittylicious.com.

For buying Tokens/Coins Bittrex, Poloniex and EtherDelta.

If you want to know where is the best place to buy specific crypto visit www.coinmarketcap.com
and go to "markets" it will show you the index of exchanges sorted by volume.

If you are transacting only BCH -- > BTC, then you have a lot of options. Poloniex and Bittrex are the most popular.
If you also plan to do fiat --> crypto or the other way around, then the country you are based in becomes important. There could be issues in sending/receiving foreign currencies in your bank account.

well first i need to buy bitcoin  i am going to use EUR - SEPA transfer so i guess best option for this is kraken and bitstamp


i would also like to transfer them from my buisness account and none of the exchangers have an option to open account as buisness/corporate ...

so i sent a bounch of emails to them and documents and this was a week ago and everything is still in pending status...


for exchange i am wondering if there would be another drop of bitcoin so that you quickly move the funds to a more stable altcoin ore in that case is best to withdraw the funds to fiat ?


ore like this last WIN WIN situation with bitcoin cash when there was a big uprise it would be good ti move the funds from bitcoin to bcash quickly and make a profit and then move back to bitcoin like now since its stable again and growing back

I can not understand why some people are suggesting Kraken to you, that exchange is almost falling down in little pieces, dont even think about depositing funds in there because a lot of people got their accounts frozed or something else and they were not able to withdraw their money anymore.
Bittrex is the best exchange that is online right now, i have some funds in there and for me it is the most safest exchange at the moment, but never hold your bitcoins in an exchange, it is risky, doesnt matter what exchange it is.

let me tell you that i only have an option of EUR - SEPA transfer  to deposit and buy the crypto

I also sent email to Bitstamp about business account and after a few days they responded:


I hope this will help you :)

You can have a look at XAPO (it's not an exchange, but an online wallet). You can feed your XAPO wallet with an EUR - SEPA transfer, and when your transfer arrives at XAPO, they will put the bitcoins into your wallet. After, you can send your bitcoins into any of the exchanges to do what you want. However I don't recommend XAPO 100%, because their support is slow (they're always overloaded, because they're so big). If you can find another wallet that can accept SEPA transfer to feed the wallet, you're good to go.

cryptopia.co.nz  is  a pretty good exchange .Mostly good for smaller  less knowned coins

I also want to point out that some exchanges will delist inactive currencies, so if you decide to get a low volume alt coin (I suggest you don't, but you might) then you might want to not hold it on an exchange.  Also coinmarketcap.com lists different exchanges by volume for any given coin.  This is very useful because higher market volume generally makes it easier to transact.  It is also useful because not every exchange has the market you want.  For example, even if an exchange has both neo and ltc, they may not have a market to trade those for each other, and even if they do the market volume may be far smaller than what you can find elsewhere.  Higher volume should equate to smaller spreads, especially because lower volume markets, in my experience, also have thin order books.  Good luck!

I use bittrex and binance, but prefer binance because there is low fee. But I think more safety decentralized exchange: https://decentrex.com
