Comissions of trading is one thing but you should also take a look at the withdrawal fee's of these exchanges.
For example binance is one of the best exchanges however even tho their maker and taker is great, their withdrawal fee is insanely high compared to other places and they charge insanely for listing other coins.

It means there are other methods for them to make money aside from the obvious trading fee we see. Of course, the trading fee is probably still their biggest income but the money they lose by trading fee is compensated by other stuff behind the obvious ways. Hence, just trading fee's wouldn't show much to any of us.

For investors (long term traders) trading fees are unnoticable. They are noticable for daytraders/ short term traders. But for them there are thing that are dozen times more important (like liquidity, spread, trust, interface, sharpness (time from creating order to beeing it anable to fulfill by other trader - simply if i create order and its on market 10 s after, then i cancell it and i have money 20 seconds after - its not for daytrader)

I have 1 feature of good trading platform. Its name has to be Binance. That the best option for regular trading. Its sharp, without fake trades, has great interface, its secured the most. Binance help even users with hacked API kays. It also has highest volume (lowest spread). I've used at liest 10 exchanges (just to utilize shitcoins that i had for free). Noone was even close to binance.

Now abount exchanges that i used or i have something interresting to say Smiley

Lbank is scam exchange. Its realy hard to find real trade there. Most of their trades are fake just to boost trading volume on coinmarketcap. I also dont like their withdrawal policy. They had 200$ withdrawal fee for withdrawing USDT. 200$. Trade commision dasnt look important now?

Huobi is not sharp enought. 20 secons - Thats how much time it needs for simple operation like this:

1- creating order
2- beeing able to cancel it
3- having money unlocked for another order
For binance its like as fast as you can click.

For daytrading it might not be enought. Also its interface is no as good as binance is.  

Bithumb Interface is soo bad. I didnt tried it because I dont trust it due to very high differences in prices between other exchanges. If noone is arbitraging it something must stink. And im talking abount alt/btc.

Bitfinex is no longer top 10. Its top 16 ATM due to lots of fud related with theter. In my opinion it might be next mtgox

Bit-z - fake trades - just like Lbank

Decided to buy your first cryptocurrency, but do not know which exchanges take the lowest commission?  For a start, let's figure out with whom and for what the commissions are taken. A maker or market maker is one who provides liquidity to the market by placing limit orders, that is, orders to buy or sell with a price limit, thereby helping (make the market, hence the maker).  For adding volumes to the order book, makers are rewarded by lower commission. A taker is one who places an order (buys or sells) at the market price, that is, the order is executed immediately (roughly speaking, it takes what is on the market, therefore a taker).  Since such participants withdraw liquidity from the market, their commission is usually somewhat higher.


1. Binance


Binance is a popular Chinese exchange that began active operations in July 2017. At first, the company’s headquarters was located in China, and then moved to Malta, where by this time the regulatory climate had become favorable for cryptocurrency companies.

Due to low commissions, the exchange quickly gained popularity and became the largest in the world.  The exchanger is designed for both professionals and beginners, so there are training materials, tools and charts for traders, as well as basic and advanced versions of user interfaces - the extended version offers a deeper technical analysis of prices.

Up to 100 trading operations with BTC within 30 days and without using BNB coins (when used for BNB transactions a discount is given):
• Commission of maker - 0.10%
• Commission of taker - 0.10%


2. OKEX


OKEX is a futures trading platform launched by the major Chinese digital asset exchange OKCoin.com and focused on BTC and LTC futures.  Presented here hundreds of trading pairs and types of futures, which gives the trader the flexibility to choose a trading strategy.

OKEX has quite strict customer service rules, so today the exchange does not work in Hong Kong, Cuba, North Korea, Iran, Crimea, Sudan, Malaysia, Syria, USA, Bangladesh, Ecuador, Bolivia and Kyrgyzstan - either because these countries are  under UN sanctions, or because their citizens are forbidden to perform any actions with cryptocurrencies.

Up to 100 trading operations with BTC within 30 days:
• Commission of maker - 0.10%
• Commission of taker - 0.15%


3. Huobi


The headquarters of Huobi is located in Singapore, and the company focuses primarily on the Asian market - it has announced a strategic partnership with HBUS to serve American customers.

4. Bithumb


Bithumb is the largest exchange of South Korea.  The headquarters is in Seoul.  It has been working since 2013, but in 2017, the site was hacked - it is worth bearing in mind.

• Commission of maker - 0.15%
• Commission of taker - 0.15%


When using a coupon for a fixed amount, a discount is applied, then the commission is from 0.075% to 0.01%.

The exchanger is mainly focused on semi-professional and professional traders, as well as institutional players.  The company recently stopped working in the United States and focused on serving customers from other countries.  At various times, the site was hacked, and now it pays great attention to safety, but it is worth remembering their history.

• Commission of maker - 0.01%
• Commission of taker - 0.10%


7. ZB.com

The exchange works with clients from all over the world, except for residents of Germany and the state of New York because of the laws of these jurisdictions.  Users complain about the slow withdrawal of funds, which seems to be due to manual checking of each request - if you need quick access to the funds, keep this in mind.

9. Bibox


Bibox - Chinese Exchange, launched in 2017.  Artificial intelligence algorithms are used to organize transactions and maximize profits.  The site supports Mandarin, English, Korean, Russian and Vietnamese.
