^ You talk of 10 Bitcoins, meanwhile I can't trust these instant exchanges even with single exchange of 10k usd.

I’d like to highlight one feature of Tangem that I personally find valuable, i.e.commission-free stablecoin swapping. This is made possible through the Changelly platform
Commission-free swaps seem attractive at first but using a service like Changelly to do it through doesn't. Like ChangeNOW, those are selective scammers. They are legit enough to not be called complete scammers but love to hustle their users every now and then and when the spoils are worth the negative press. I would be very careful with them, and use them with small amounts only and as a last resort if there was no better service around for the same swap I needed to do.
Wow, thanks for warning. I didn’t know about this. I’ve used Tangem’s built-in swapping feature a few times and everything went smoothly those times, so I thought the services they use were quite reliable. I didn’t swap large amount no more than $100 but now I’ll definitely think twice before doing it again. It might be better to not paying attention on zero commissions they offer and just use external exchange services instead.

Nothing should happen with hundred dollars or even few thousand I guess, as Pmalek said — spoils must be worth negative press — they would not want to ruin their name for little amounts.

Agreed. That's why I'm swapping no more than a couple of hundred at a time. I know Tangem isn't the only wallet that relies on Changelly many online exchanges also use its swapping service. Even some crypto card providers depend on it, so any loss of reputation would be extremely costly for Changelly's business.
