There are several exchanges already, some with heavy fee while some with competitive ones, but in the end, trading is good when volumes and the concept are both good. Trade.io is one such platform I am waiting to see getting launched, as it doesn't just have the regular exchange stuff but also things like liquidity pool, and the tokens they have, holding them gives rewards to the users.

The bad practices from exchanges like Hitbtc is what is making me wait for newer exchanges to disrupt the market. I am waiting for trade.io to work on their platform and bring out something that we haven't seen so far, and what they are working on looks quite promising.

Zebpay as an app, Koinex, Bitbns, WazirX on their websites are some that you can trust.

Someone investing in ICOs anyway would know the risks involved, so they need not worry. The ICO developers on the other side might also be prepared for the wrath if that happens. I am sure the ICOs are ready to shift their locations to outside the country if the regulations are tough, though I am hopeful it won't be too harsh.

I've seen Bitbns and Koinex to be quicker and still functional in withdrawal of the funds. Even WazirX is currently helping with the withdrawals.

Zebpay frankly is being safe. They are one of the most recognized marketplaces in India and they have to keep themselves and the users safe, rather than showing confidence in open air, because how much ever the size is, it isn't bigger than the rules that will be laid by the govt. They will be back to the normal positive side if the govt. regulations are flexible, but if it goes otherwise, Zebpay will feel proud of how they kept their users aware about the situation already.

Remember, Zebpay didn't ever give you a suggestion to invest or hold your investments.

I bring any funds to Indian exchange or marketplace only for a quick buy or sell. Otherwise, my funds are kept only in the foreign ones like Coinbase and Binance. It is not good to hold funds in Indian exchanges because their hands are being tied down by RBI and banks.

I'm not sure how feasible it would be for even the users to have to trade on a side platform rather than the main one, where the altcoin trading could have been implemented. But if Unocoin had to come up with a solution to fight with the RBIs tough rules, they had to come up with this.

Had expected Coinome to actually do better than the others, but they are the slowest right now.

No, sadly there is no such website that talks about Cryptocurrency in India, or ICOs in India separately. For now, there are not many ICOs to check as well but then, there should have been a resource only for the Indian ones.

I work in that industry and this is what I got as a reply from the Jio team itself when enquired about JioCoin.

Mumbai, 31st January 2018: Reliance Jio has come across reports in media and other websites about the existence of purported JioCoin Apps on the Internet that are soliciting investments in cryptocurrencies from people.

Reliance Jio would like to inform the public and media that there are no such apps offered by the company or its affiliates/associates. Any such apps using the JioCoin name are fake and people are advised to refrain from dealing with any of them.

Reliance Jio takes a serious note of such fraudulent attempts by unscrupulous persons to misguide the public in the name of Jio and reserves the right to take appropriate legal recourse.

There is nothing being done from the company right now.

That's a big problem with the direct dealing. I wouldn't want to deal that way with anyone and I am happy paying the fee in one of the exchanges because I am at least guaranteed to get the money.

Also, there's no reason to blame LocalBitcoins as it has many ways of working and once you made the mistake of dealing privately, it is your mistake and not of the website.

Don't think so. Even if regulations come into play and they work well for the Indians, Zebpay is already seeing a huge competition from others namely Koinex, Bitbns, etc. and if things become regularized and legal in India, there will be many more wallets and exchanges coming to India.

Becoming Coinbase is a huge thing since it involves not just security and handling of huge user bases, but also handling the support and in countries like India, there will be a big user base to handle for them.

I am no big expert and unlike others who claim and point out things that are not true, I'd say you should have a strategy to make small investments from time to time. Who knows, if by chance, the market booms from April? The initial small investments you already made should be helpful in giving you profits already. Waiting to invest, and waiting with some investment made are two different things and you should try to choose the latter in that case.

Also, never put all the eggs in the same basket and at one time. Try for smaller investments on a timely basis. Good luck

This actually looks like a nice site. Didn't hear about it before and I knew of some bitcoinrates.in or something like that only for Bitcoin. But in Arbitrage, it is also important to see how quickly the transfers happen in case we need to do that at times. XRP, XLM get transferred fast when compared to LTC, ETH, and BTC.

Wish there was a way to track the arbitrate possibility of XLM as well as some of the Indian exchanges are now including Stellar as well.

Every store, everything that involves money will have KYC included very soon. Amazon is just a small one in this list. Also, it is actually good if you are going to be legal and pay taxes on time if you are going to hold BTC and at some point, sell them to someone. If it goes the illegal way, it will be harder for you to escape later if the authorities find that you found a way out.

I'd rather not keep it at any exchanges in India right now and have the main coins on Coinbase. If possible and if you have a good amount invested here, get a hardware wallet like Ledger Nano S as you don't have to worry about anything around it, the country rules, or whatever.

Hey,

Can I come over and take a look before deciding about the purchase?
