In 2009 somewhat of a revolution began when a person or group named “Satoshi Nakamoto” (the identity of the individual or group remains unknown to this day) developed and released Bitcoin, the world’s first cryptocurrency. Since then, cryptocurrencies have taken the world by storm and recently have enjoyed more and more mainstream adoption. There are now tens of thousands of different cryptos on the market, each with their own purpose and utility. Cryptocurrencies have been described as everything from an effective investment tool, a tool against inflation, but first and foremost a possible new digital and therefore global and decentralized currency.
In order to be able to trade cryptocurrencies, you need to sign up to a cryptocurrency exchange which allows you to exchange your government-issued Fiat money (US dollar, Euro, Pound, etc.) into the cryptocurrency of your choice
The following list ranks the best cryptocurrency exchanges based on the meta scores they achieve at major crypto exchange rankings by CoinMarketCap, Coingecko, Forbes and BitDegree. These rankings usually consider the traded market cap, number of users, number of tradeable cryptocurrencies and overall trustworthiness when, especially as it relates to the withdrawal of money, support and order execution.
