Which is the most secure crypto exchange after binance ?

I always tend to go by size & daily trading volume, which obviously isn’t a guarantee if you look at what happened to FTX but I don’t keep any funds on CEXs other than trading & immediately withdrawing right after.

I use both Coinbase & Kraken, both are solid and withdrawal/trading fees are manageable.

Ensuring that the exchange stores the majority of its funds offline, or in cold storage, is one of the most important factors in maintaining security.

 

[Permitri]

I would say Bybit!

Bybit is not secured for any trader and investor.

 

[yubiko]

Probably Kraken, Coinbase or any other US based CEX. I wouldn’t leave anything significant on any exchange for a long period of time though. Cold/hardware wallets are the way to go.

 

[MRDon7]

Bybit is not secured for any trader and investor.

Bybit is 100% secured!

 

[Permitri]

Bybit is 100% secured!

Please, explain how. They recently had their security system compromised.

 

[vurucu]

I think OKX or Coinbase

 

[MRDon7]

Please, explain how. They recently had their security system compromised.

That can and have happened to majority of other exchange platforms.

It has been resolved.

If you specifically want to earn interest similar to what you would earn on Bitcoin, then platforms like BlockFi, Nexo, or Celsius may interest you as they offer BTC interest-bearing accounts.

 

[Permitri]

That can and have happened to majority of other exchange platforms.

It has been resolved.

I wouldn't recommend Bybit to any trader or investor that wants good safety of funds stored.

 

[Quiterd]

Coinbase I think

 

[jitsumi]

After the whole FTX debacle it’s save to assume that size doesn’t equal security, but personally I’m sticking to the bigger players - Coinbase, Kraken & Binance.

 

[ray mitchell]

coinbase can be one

 

[Scryel]

After Binance I would say Coinbase and then Kraken.

They are all good until they are bad lol

It's like a good car. They're all good until they need their first repair. But no one knows when that moment will come.

 

[ICOGorilla]

[SofiaMatt]

After Binance, the most secure crypto exchanges are Coinbase Pro, Kraken, Gemini, and Bitstamp. They’re known for strong security, regulatory compliance, and good track records. Always use 2FA and consider hardware wallets for extra safety.
