How to read this table

  • Binance and OKX are close across most dimensions — both large, full-range, low-fee all-rounders; for a finer split see Binance vs OKX for beginners.
  • If you value "simplest to start" most, Coinbase has a lighter UI, but higher fees, weaker Chinese support, and availability depends on region.
  • Which hard checks actually matter when picking a platform, and which traps to avoid, are covered in how a normal person picks a crypto exchange.

One reminder: the platform you pick affects your experience and safety more than the coin you pick — don't just go by whose ad shouts loudest. Decide what you value most first (the items above), then verify the details against the official pages.
