Crypto exchanges

avatar
(Edited)

Trading fees differ from exchange to exchange. How do the exchanges utilize these fees? Where does the money go and what are you getting in return? To answer these questions, I’ve done some research in the matter in order to see what the fees are; and consequently, the turnover of several crypto exchanges.

If we look at coinmarketcap.com we can extract the daily volumes of the crypto exchanges. The trading fees are taken from the respective exchange website.

(Trading volume x Trading fee) x 30 = Turnover

Trading volume = Daily trading volume in $
Trading fee = trading fee in %
Turnover = Turnover per month in $ (indication)

In order to simplify this, I have multiplied the turnover times 30 to get an idea of the monthly turnover. The results are in the below table:

I’ve been active in the crypto ecosystem since 2013. For me, the blockchain technology is about giving back to the community. Exchanges are the infrastructural backbone of the crypto ecosystem. So far, we cannot exchange our coins without the use of these centralized exchanges. This is in my opinion counterintuitive – and rather ironic – if you keep in mind that decentralization of the financial service industry is currently at play due to blockchain adoption.

The above monthly turnover figures raise the question as to why crypto exchanges still deal with large organizational and process issues. It definitely looks like they’re earning plenty of money. Why are they then not able to implement a functioning helpdesk? Helpdesk tickets are taking ages to be resolved and it can be extremely difficult to speak to a customer service representative. This causes frustration and is detrimental to the experience with the exchanges. Helloo?? Can somebody pick up the phone? I want to talk to a human being! Is this so hard to organize?

It is time for a new exchange. One who makes sure that trading fees are strategically invested back into the user’s experience. Tradebits (www.tradebits.co) is becoming this and much more. Mark my words: this will be the largest exchange in the crypto ecosystem. A stable, reliable, scalable crypto exchange that gives back to the people and is designed with the user as the priority.

omg that's really huge money . why they still have damn server problems . we have witnessed a day halt in Binance. poloneix customer base sucks. bittrex customer base reacts at least after a weak.
BInance customer base is fine and only hope.
I never thought they make these many millions but still they didn't bother about providing quality services . really it is so sad .

I completely agree with you on customer service lack in all of these exchanges including Cinbase not mentioning fees. I definitely encourage you to create your own exchange. I wish you the best. If you become successful I will be glad to join you as your customer.

That's sounds really , you've initiated with a nice plan . People would always compare two platforms and when they feel the difference they will go with the one which provides better options than other, that's the human psychology . Your idea of creating a new exchange would surely hit because of the unique feature of creating tickets . Many people cry for their problem and no human is there to show some response .Go ahead bro , you're showing genuine interest interest in people and trying to solve their problems , It would always help you . Wishing you good luck :)

@abajnath thank you for simplifying this. Sometimes i wonder why these guys can do the needful while they earn huge amount.

Bitcoin for example charges huge amount for transactions to be succesfully executed and when it does it takes hours for it to reach the other end.

I am active in the crypto ecosystem since 2013. For me personally the blockchain technology is about giving back to the community.

You must be a lord here man.

But how can we all solve this problem because it is giving me a whole lot of concern.

I am me @brightfame

Another question that is boggling me is if you see the monthly turnover figures, why can the exchanges not be property organized. They are earning plenty of money. Why are they not able to implement a functioning helpdesk?

I have this same thought every day. Except I replace the word functioning with another word that starts with 'f'. :)

Eventually someone pays the bill, having a good exchange for free it not sustainable. We provide the best exchange and you pay a trading fee for that. Security and scalability costs money.

Oh! I didn't notice that before, the highest liquidity exchanges have the lowest fees (Binance and Bitfnex).

Also, I didn't know that Upbit takes a high fees.

One of the new exchanges has the lowest fees which is 0.05%
This exchange is AEX
https://coinmarketcap.com/exchanges/aex/

I tried it and it's amazing with fast support service, I think it will be more popular in the near future.

Thank you abajnath for this info, really helpful :)

Different Exchange charges differently, and some of them are very high. The best way is to buy at one exchange and never move or just move to your wallet and HODL. I did some moving of my coins from one exchange to others and lost bunch of money.
