When you exchange cryptos on instant exchanges like Changelly or Changenow, what are the point you pay attention to?
like fast transaction, no kyc etc?
like fast transaction, no kyc etc?
Do you mean trading crypto? Or you mean buy crypto? Exchange means both. However, if you wanna buy crypto with with other crypto then likely you may use Binance. The advantage and disadvantages of trading on Binance is you can withdraw limited amount without KYC verification which is better than some other centralized exchanges. If you buy crypto with fiat (like credit or debit card) then Binance will ask you for KYC verification. If you are beginner on trading/exchange crypto currency then you might go with Binance rather than other exchange. When you will learned then you might go with other exchange as well.
I meant both Buy and Exchange, thanks for your note!
The attempted recovery by the market following last weeks dramatic collapse has been rather uneven and choppy, even the planned upgrades to the Ethereum network have failed to act as a catalyst for the next move. As pointed out last week, it is Golden Week holiday in China and trading volumes are likely to be impacted as a result. Looking at the DeFi market, the amount of BTC locked continues to decline (90-day low), while all the same, ETH locked in DeFi is close to a 90-day high and not far from an all-time high. Maker dominance is just over 50%, and 1.41% of total ETH supply is locked in MakerDAO smart contracts.

The crypto world never ceases to amaze and in a sudden plot twist, iFinex, the parent company of stablecoin issuer Tether and cryptocurrency exchange Bitfinex, has won an appeal against the New York State Attorney General (NYAG). The appellate division of the states Supreme Court granted iFinexs request to stay a previous court order requiring the company to turn over documents to the Attorney Generals office. This announcement, which has been celebrated as a win by the group, should be taken with a grain of salt because iFinex has until November 4 to perfect its appeal according to a court document, or else the company may be required to continue to comply with the investigation. If the case is allowed to proceed actual arguments wont likely begin until 2020.

The market took a real beating last week, with DeFi outflows accelerating and the contango delta narrowing sharply for Bitcoin and Ethereum. The amount of ETH locked in the Maker DAO credit ecosystem has stabilized around 1.3% but the pressure on ETH was such that the so-called bite function on the Maker ecosystem, where users liquidate vulnerable CDPs, reached a 3-month high on Friday. However, since then the market has rallied, as short positions have gotten squeezed following the big announcement that the much-awaited platform by Bakkt was finally given the green light by regulators. The long-awaited Bitcoin futures and warehouse products for institutional clients will be launched on September 23. However, some of their largest prospective clients still dont have permission to trade physically-delivered futures contracts.

The broader focus remains on the never-ending trade talks between the US and China, with analysts from Goldman Sachs noting over the weekend that fears of the US-China trade war leading to a recession are increasing and that the firm no longer expects a trade deal between the worlds two largest economies before the 2020 US presidential election. The widespread media coverage and the perceived implications of capital flows has prompted a number of crypto market commentators to speculate the advent of another squeeze higher in prices. However, perhaps overwhelmed by all the media noise, a majority of traders are overlooking the recent developments in the Decentralised Finance (DeFi) market. Specially, the dramatic collapse in the amount of USD locked in Maker, which has now fallen to below $300mln. The total amount of ETH locked in the credit ecosystem now stands at 1.25% while the number had been 2.11% earlier in the year.

The Bitcoin rally continues, with the largest cap asset now trading above $12k and the futures curve moving into deeper contango, as crypto market participants continue to react to the recent developments in the FX market. Notably, the Chinese Renminbi weakened beyond 7 per US dollar for the first time since the 2008 global financial crisis, breaching a level that Chinas central bank (PBOC) has previously defended as the prospects of a trade deal between the US and China have continued to fade away. Unexpectedly though, the PBOC on Tuesday set daily currency fixing stronger than analysts expected and announced the planned sale of yuan-denominated bonds in Hong Kong. This comes directly after the U.S. labelled the country a currency manipulator, which helped drive the yuan up 0.2% a day after it sank to its lowest point since 2015. The central bank also rejected the accusation it manipulates the yuan. In times of distress, cash is king, and, while the focus may be on Bitcoin and other large cap assets in the crypto space, the growing importance of stablecoins will likely again be on display. Maintaining the peg can be just as challenging in times of high velocity inflows as it is during aggressive outflows, and premiums on the likes of KRW and CNH are to be expected. At the same time, Tether (USDT) may gain further ground against other stablecoins, given its preference during capital flight times.

The Fed cut rates for the first time since 2008, but the move, dubbed a hawkish cut, failed to appease the financial markets as equities slumped and the Dollar index rose to an 8-month high. Two Fed officials dissented from the decision, favoring no move on Wednesday, while the press conference further undercut market expectations going forward. Gold bugs and crypto maximalists also came out of the meeting less than impressed with the market reaction, as gold continued to head south, having touched on a 6-year high in June. As a reminder, late last week European Central Banks ditched a 20-year-old agreement to coordinate their gold sales. The so-called Central Bank Gold Agreement (CBGA) was originally signed in 1999 to limit gold sales and help stabilize the market for the precious metal. In a statement, the ECB said that the signatories confirm that gold remains an important element of global monetary reserves, as it continues to provide asset diversification benefits, and none of them currently has plans to sell significant amounts of gold. The deal, originally between 15 central banks, capped the amount signatories could sell each year. Over the subsequent years, prices surged from less than $300 to a high of almost $2,000 in 2011 ($1,400 as of now). Now, of course, in spite of suggesting that there is no desire at the moment to sell off significant amounts, who knows how long that will last? Who would blame them for wanting to capitalize on price appreciation, especially in the face of slowing economic growth and deteriorating finances? At the same time, given the market pressure on policy makers for more rate cuts and the inability to un-invert the bond curve, calls for the adoption of Modern Monetary Theory (MMT) may be revived. The theory states (among other things) that a government that can create its own money, such as the United States, cannot default on debt denominated in its own currency. A government can also pay for goods, services, and financial assets without a need to collect money in the form of taxes or debt issuance in advance of such purchases, is limited in its money creation and purchases by inflation

Hello everyone.
really interested in the question above because as I see, many traders don't use price trackers such as CMC and go directly to the exchanges where they prefer to trade. Or am I wrong?

The contango (Bitcoin futures curve) has been nothing short of a god send for miners and a curse for specs. However, just like in Dec17, it remains to be seen how long the overstretched levels will last. The current dynamic is such that not only are miners able to capitalize on the parabolic advance in prices but they can also lock in prices for the next 3-6 months at a premium over the spot market. This premium ranged from $400-900 at the end of last week before coming down to a mere $300 over the weekend. Given that the CME futures are not traded over the weekend, that is traditionally when more sensitive price action takes place. Nonetheless, the dramatic nature of the collapse in contango delta over the weekend ought to serve as a reminder of the fragile nature of the recent rally.

The macro theme remains very much the same, the uncertainty surrounding global economic growth is a hot topic among the worlds leading central bankers and yet the supposed flows that benefited Bitcoin are no longer present. Press reports continue to point out that Chinas central bank (PBOC) could cut its benchmark policy rate for the first time in four years if the US Federal Reserve (Fed) delivers a widely expected cut in late July. The central bank has already been quietly guiding short-term borrowing rates lower for months. However, after rallying like there is no tomorrow, Bitcoin has entered into a phase that has been particularly frustrating for directional and momentum traders; its price swings have been unexpected and stretches of volatility have tended to disappear without much notice.

Bitcoin flash crashed yesterday following reports that Coinbase is investigating an issue in which its API and website were not functioning properly. Bitcoins price fell around $1,400 within minutes before recovering back towards the $13k level. Overnight, the price action bucked the recent bull trend as crypto market participants took profit following days of gains. The move lower also comes ahead of the impending expiration of the CME June futures contract. The curve remains in contango, although the spreads have narrowed significantly.

Bitcoin price rallied ferociously past the psychologically important $10,000 level before topping out just above the $11,000 level, while the futures curve remains in deep contango but the delta has narrowed from the widest levels observed over the weekend. At the same time, Ethereum rallied all the way to the $320 area, with the Sep-perpetual spread expanding to $17. As a reminder, this week will see June CME Bitcoin futures expire, so pay close attention to the futures roll and the shape of the curve. The funding costs are also on the rise, moving to their highest level since May.
