is arbitrage still possible in crypto ?

you will also need the fastest server you can get as arbitrage opportunities can disappear in seconds and that can be the difference between making money or losing it,

What do you mean by server? Are you suggesting to run bots on a VPS or something similar? As far as I can tell, most VPS have a good connection unless you choose the cheapest one with limited bandwidth/ping. Maybe you can fix that with a fast internet connection and a mini PC if latency is an issue, or if your exchange blocks VPS to access their API (unlikely).

is arbitrage still possible in crypto ? anyone has any luck with this method ?

Arbitrage is still very possible to try, but as many other members have said, you have to have a large amount of capital to be able to make a decent profit, apart from that, you also have to think about the fees you will pay, don't let the fees you pay end up being bigger. of the profits you might get, i still have a friend who uses the arbitrage method quite often but he said that in arbitrage timeliness is the key, don't ever think you will make a profit if you buy and sell too late, well factors such as the internet network also have a strong influence.

The number of exchanges is increasing as the days go by, many people are doing exchanges so as the days increase the number of exchanges will increase. As the number of exchanges increases day by day, arbitrage may become difficult if not impossible.

[the rise]

for me of course still, but be more careful before doing it, my personal experience, I only do AT in dex, I'm not yet skilled in cex, it's just that in dex there are lots of robots working so it feels a little difficult and sometimes I get stuck but it's still worth it to take advantage

arbitrage in crypto still posible if sending fee low and fast withdraw
because if not fast transaction aftre buy, and withdraw to another exchange is very late , prices have returned to normal and are the same price

The market is volatile, the earlier we understand that, the better for us. We're merely humans and we're not perfect, we keep making errors in the space. The cryptocurrency we're hearing today is broad and never ending when it involves projects. Talking about arbitrage, we have both local and broad traders that do actually understands the system. Buying low and selling high is the main focus of every arbitrage trader, none of these projects matters can lasts forever. Arbitrage in crypto can be considered to be easy runup in the system and everything can be possibly form out with promising projects.

[Jonyshake71]

Possible but Maybe not profitable like before. there are so many restrictions. Transactions fees are huge nowadays, but if you have a lot of money to cover transactions fee then maybe you can make profit from market. And as market is so volatile, so it is possible that your token takes alots of time to deposited in other exchange and price get down. Then you make lose. Manual process isn't worth now everything is technologcal advance and bot trading is ahead of taking advantage in this field

Correct. These 2 metrics must be met, fast transaction times and low transaction fees. And if the price difference is also greater and is able to provide a backup for the transaction fees used. In the past few years, it has been very profitable to carry out arbitrage trades, but recently this has been very rare because the price difference on each exchange has started to become small, especially if there is a large price difference, sometimes the wallet of one of the exchanges is undergoing maintenance so it is very difficult to carry out arbitrage trades.

[kojektea]

Of course some people will take advantage of arbitrage, it's best to understand it first because for me personally the risk sometimes doesn't match the profit we get, because arbitrage trading requires quite a large amount of capital, apart from that you also have to look at each exchange in detail, what is the withdrawal process and smooth deposits, because speed is needed in arbitration

[Saint-loup]

You can still find some good opportunities sometimes but generally they are limited, and they are on small cap cryptos, on small exchanges, with low liquidity. Exchanges and professional arbitrage traders usually use bots to track them and to instantly place orders when they spot them. On large markets and big exchanges too many people are following the price in real time to be able to find such opportunities.

This niche is occupied by bots, so if you are thinking of doing cryptocurrency arbitrage manually, then it will be difficult for you to compete with bots. But if you are able to create your own bot for arbitrage trading, you will be able to have a permanent guaranteed profit.

is arbitrage still possible in crypto ? anyone has any luck with this method ?

for now it might be a bit difficult. especially for eth and bitcoin because in addition to the sending fee is large and expensive. also the transaction process is long.
The main and first aribitage requirement is that the transaction process or sending coins must be fast.
if it is not fast, the price of the coin when it is sent or has entered the destination exchanger is the same price. there is even a loss in the sending fee.

Bots master everything, they are faster and more efficient, especially now that bots are also added with AI, they are even smarter. Becoming your own artbitration bot developer might be more profitable, but it requires good programming skills to create your own bot. I used an arbitrage bot a few years ago and it worked well, but unfortunately the trial for a few days was just a trial and then there was a fee that I needed to pay to enjoy the premium features.

[tvplus006]

...I used an arbitrage bot a few years ago and it worked well, but unfortunately the trial for a few days was just a trial and then there was a fee that I needed to pay to enjoy the premium features.

Well, if the cost of the arbitrage bot is lower than the profit that you earned, then you can safely make such a purchase. After all, you write that you were satisfied with the arbitration bot, so why didn't you buy a premium subscription then? Or is the subscription price higher than the profit received?

[MIner1448]

Arbitration is possible almost everywhere where there is volatility and other exchanges. Crypto-aplut is no exception; there are very often different price tags on different exchanges, especially on new little-known exchanges; for some people this may even be the main mechanism of income

I'm just a small trader and don't really focus on arbitrage. Tried several arbitrary trading bots and found a bot that gave a trial. To get a premium account it will cost around $50-$100. Returning capital or not also depends on what the crypto trend is at that time. but for now the benefits may be very slim.

is arbitrage still possible in crypto ? anyone has any luck with this method ?

I've tried it but I don't feel like I have much benefit from that method. Unless we really have quite large capital. Because sometimes the price difference between Cex is not that big. Or sometimes it returns to the same price quickly. But this method is still possible. But it must be an altcoin that has fast transaction speeds. Because if we do this on an altcoin that has a very slow network confirmation speed then we will be late when sending it to another exchange. But for now I don't use that method. Because it's too risky. Because sometimes we experience losses when prices decline and we actually lose in transaction fees.

Arbitrage trading is still possible in crypto trading but I don't know about the popularity, most traders that I know don't use the method, they'd prefer to do their trading in one exchange, because in using different exchange you'd have to be monitoring prices in them, in the end the difference might not be much, or within a short time price can stabilize. Moreover it might not be worth it without having enough capital, so it comes down to the choice of individual traders, the method that suits them best

[MFahad]

is arbitrage still possible in crypto ? anyone has any luck with this method ?

Yes It is still possible but it is very risky and also very difficult nowadays. there are too many exchanges and also prices are well maintained and almost same everywhere. you'll hardley find any chance.
You need to be super active in many exchanges, and watch multiple assets to find the right opportunity.
then doing KYC in so many exchanges ia nother problem. withdrawing and depositing take different times in different exchanges. you could miss a lot of chances because of that. and also you need a huge capital for that. I don't think it can be done with small investment. you would need around 1 BTC.

The popularity decreased as the exchange has now better price rates that is near from other exchanges. It became more unprofitable than ever. There are a lot of new exchange now, I believe that you can take advantage of those especially if the token you plan to do arbitrage is newly release, price difference might be far and could be profitable, include the new dexes on your options. Though as you said, monitoring them aren't that easy as there are so many exchange.

Manual process is still there and it's still being preferred by some users. I won't talk negative about it because if without it, we won't get where we are now. On the other hand, I think I already heard of arbitrage bots for use in trading. So, automizing it might be possible now. But as you said, it may only cost us more because for sure, bots like this are not free. The fees for some cryptos are also costly now and then they can now move slower, so going arbitrage on them might be less effective now. We can still try on other cryptos (preferably the new ones) since they are not that crowded yet. We must only be careful for a possible rug pull.

[el kaka22]

Possible but it has always been a very difficult thing to do. Do not consider something as simple as move your money from btc to doge to eth to back to btc again and make profit, that is long gone and all the bots out there do that instantly if there is even a single cent that can be made from that.

But, turning btc into usdt, moving usdt into local exchange, turning that into local fiat, then turning that local fiat into btc? That may still be viable, not all the time of course because other people are chasing that as well. Like I said, possible to do this but it is also quite difficult, not only you will need to check it 24/7 to find something but you also need to realize the returns aren't great and you may risk some money and miss the possibility and make a loss.
