Cryptocurrency exchanges are online trading platforms that let you buy and sell crypto coins. They act as intermediaries between buyers and sellers, working just like any other trading platform. In a few simple steps, crypto exchanges allow users to deposit money via netbanking, direct bank transfer, or P2P, and trade in crypto assets as needed. Each month, Forbes Advisor puts together a list of crypto exchanges to help users find a platform that suits their needs.
