How the lowest fee crypto exchange list is picked
Before the order screen, an exchange qualifies if it publishes enough information to determine the price of that buy.
Every number comes from the exchange's own pages, while scoring details explain the process.
Why some exchanges are not on the lowest fee crypto exchange list
- Coinbase publishes no fee you can price before the order preview.
- OKX US publishes no fee you can price before the order preview.
- Because Binance, KuCoin, Bybit and Hyperliquid don't serve US residents, no lowest fee crypto exchange list includes them.
