How we rank crypto exchanges
Our list starts from the CoinGecko trust score, an independent rating of each exchange’s liquidity, size, API coverage, cybersecurity and proof of reserves. We then check licences, fees, the number of coins, products and the exchange’s security record, and write a full review for every exchange.
Live figures (trust score, 24-hour volume and the 30-day volume chart) refresh about every 15 minutes. Exchange rankings change: always check that an exchange is licensed and available in your country before you open an account.
Crypto exchanges – frequently asked questions
What is the best crypto exchange in 2027?
There is no single best exchange for everyone. Our list ranks the top 20 by CoinGecko trust score and live trading volume. Large exchanges such as Binance, Coinbase, OKX and Kraken offer the deepest liquidity, while the right choice for you depends on where you live, the coins you want and the fees you pay.
How is this crypto exchange ranking made?
The order follows the CoinGecko trust score ranking, which looks at liquidity, scale of operations, API coverage, cybersecurity and proof of reserves, adjusted by our editors. The 24h volume, trust score and charts are live data from CoinGecko and refresh about every 15 minutes.
Is it safe to keep crypto on an exchange?
Exchanges can be hacked or freeze withdrawals. Use exchanges that publish proof of reserves and hold licences where you live, turn on two-factor authentication, and move long-term holdings to a wallet you control.
What do the trust score and 24h volume mean?
The trust score (0–10) is CoinGecko’s rating of an exchange’s reliability. 24h volume is the value of all trades on the exchange in the last 24 hours, converted to US dollars at the current Bitcoin price.
Which crypto exchanges have the lowest fees?
Most large exchanges charge 0.1% or less per spot trade for the base tier, with discounts for high volume or for paying fees in the exchange’s own token. Check each review for the exact maker and taker fees and withdrawal costs.
