Comparison of settings

Functions:
Savings plan

With a savings plan function, a fixed amount of money can be automatically invested in cryptocurrencies at regular intervals. This is set up once, for example by investing €100 in Bitcoin every month. The platform does this every month without you having to act yourself.

Staking

The platform offers staking.

Staking is the process by which cryptocurrencies are deposited with a validator. The validator processes the transactions in the network and receives the transaction fees in return, which are paid out as a reward to the players who have staked their cryptocurrencies.

Lending

Lending refers to the lending of cryptocurrencies to other users or platforms as a loan in order to earn interest on one's own currencies.

Crypto deposit

platforms allow cryptocurrencies to be deposited from their own external wallet. Some platforms only offer trading, but do not allow external deposits.

Crypto payout

platforms allow cryptocurrencies to be withdrawn from the platform to an external wallet of their own. Some platforms only offer trading, but do not allow withdrawals.

Trade:
Margin trading

Margin trading with cryptocurrencies allows traders to trade leveraged with borrowed capital and thus increase their purchasing power. The trader invests part of the amount themselves, while the rest is provided by the trading platform as a loan. This can lead to both higher profits and greater losses, which is why a sound understanding of the risks is essential.

Futures trading

Cryptocurrency futures are financial contracts that allow traders to buy or sell a certain amount of a cryptocurrency at a predetermined price on a future date. These derivatives are often used to hedge against price fluctuations or to speculate on the price movements of cryptocurrencies without having to own the actual coins. As futures can be traded with leverage, they offer the potential for high profits, but also carry a high risk of losses.

Options trading

Options for cryptocurrencies are financial derivatives that give the buyer the right, but not the obligation, to buy (call option) or sell (put option) a certain amount of a cryptocurrency at a fixed price within a certain period of time. These instruments allow traders to hedge against price fluctuations or to profit from the price movements of digital assets without having to actually own them.

NFT trading

NFTs (non-fungible tokens) represent digital assets with unique properties so that they cannot be exchanged for other tokens.

NFTs are often used for artwork, music, videos and other digital content that can be traded on the platform.

No verification

When registering on a crypto exchange, no verification is required to transfer and trade cryptocurrencies.
