So Kraken is letting people buy and sell bitcoins for fractions of a percent in fees. This would be awesome, except they are in Europe and only allow digital currency exchange for US customers. Coinbase charges 1%; does anyone know of a good and reliable exchange in the US that offers fees comparable to Kraken?

I didn't realise that Coinbase are charging so much.

Maybe they would get more uptake if they lowered them.

Could be worth trying Coinsetter.

Most exchanges charges less than 1%
In the US there are not the big players except coinbase and Kraken.
 But check Bitfinex, Bitstamp, btc-e,anxpro.com ,citcurex, they all offer USDollar Fiat

coinbase fee is 1% and they are still very popular. they must be doing something really good. btc-e fee is just 0.2% which is quite fair. bitstamp would allow to decrease the fee significantly, but only if you're a high volume trader.

1% is too much, I guess.

I like cex.io, cause I can deposit with MasterCard, and trade for 0.2%. They're long on the market (2013, I believe). And though they've been into cloud mining for a long time, they managed to create a good exchange service.
The volume is not as high as on Bitfinex, but non-professional traders would definitely like this exchange.

see this,  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=695082.0

you will find 1% is an astronomical figure;   most exchanges trading fee is less than 0.5% (not include chinese exchange, they usually for free to trading and high fee to withdraw).

in this thread, you can compared these exchange in all respects expecially fees.  and for US, if you are not in NewYork, it still applicable.

more, I suggest Lakebtc, its deposit is free, and trading fee is only 0.2%, even withdraw fee is just 0.3% / 0.2% / 0.1%.

Wait a minute, I thought Kraken lets people from all over the world to trade. When you are registering, there is every single country to be picke and they offer SEPA and international wire transfers.

Did I miss something?

If you already own bitcoin and want to trade long/short, try www.cryptofacilities.com. Never had issues there and there fees are almost zero. As low as 1/100th of a percent.

Yes, but op is from US, and is seeking for an US based exchange. btw there's a lot of issues reported by US traders regarding btc-e and
wire transfers. And even though i use them for years w/o issues, i wouldn't recommend an exchange that is unclear were it is even based at.
Also heard that circle is good alternative for US residents , but i didn't trade there yet.

cheers

I think you used just "Coinbase". You need to go on the "Coinbase Exchange" and it's 0.25%.

Hi Fullypak,

Gatecoin is based in Hong Kong and has BTCHKD BTCEUR BTCUSD and ETHBTC markets. The fees start at 0.35% and can be as low as 0.05% (depending on your monthly traded volumes). The wire transfer costs from Singapore to HK are not high and if you create an account using this link https://gatecoin.com/register?referralCode=CINGGE you can get 10 USD after your first wire.

Hope this helps!

Cheers,
