The "People's Exchange"
Kucoin, nicknamed the “People’s Exchange”, was created in 2013 by two early blockchain adopters who wanted to provide an easy to use exchange to rival the infamous Mt Gox. Originally focused on Bitcoin, they have added various tokens and trading services since and is a popular exchange to find exotic shitcoins on.
As time has gone on, they have added to their repertoire of services to allow risky leverage trading, staking and setting limit orders so if you are a bit more experienced or fancy a flutter on an easy to use interface, Kucoin is the place for you.
Their fees can be found here but are based on a tiered system, depending on how much you hold on the exchange with their KCS token.ย
