That is a great article thanks for sharing.
Also for those that didn't know. Bancor got voted in as one of the 21 Block Producers of EOS.
There dapp for cross-chain liquidity will be amazing!

This is a very cool place where you can change your coins like BTC for something else, this place is very similar to a stock exchange, but it's hard to call a stock exchange, it seems to me that this is really a very cool place to just exchange.

I love these farming-accounts who literally just say words....lol
BTC is not available on Bancor.
But there is a Fiat gateway where you can buy with a credit card!

Indeed Bancor is very convenient thing for me and I think that it's one the best place for exchange because of it's pricing algorithm and continuous liquidity. I think that over time Bancor could very well be a central figure for exchanging locally-effective tokens

I agree, atomic swaps are the future!

Bancor is one of the exchanges with a unique way to trading. You dont need to put your price in the order book.
Just follow the price there, and it will give you the appropriate amount of what you submit.

I don't know how bancor works because it's quite complicated.
Bancor's trading liquidity is also thin.

Fee to convert coins is expensive than other crypto exchange. It depends the gas limit but the fee is like bitcoin sometimes it is almost 8$ fee for 1 convert coins into other coins. But I am not doubt, It is very easy to convert any coins listed there. I wish one day the fee on bancor will be decrease.

[brendongl]

The fees are purely on the smart contract side of things aka gas fees.
When the ethereum network upgrades, these fees will be drastically reduced.
