Trusted and Best Crypto Exchange Players: Who to Trust and Who to Avoid

Decentralised finance, which gives rise to cryptocurrencies, is an innovative concept with good intentions to solve global financial problems. However, not all developers are aligned with the noble goals of decentralised finance.

In this article, we list down the names of companies, websites and crypto wallets that are legit, along with those you should avoid!

Companies on the Whitelist are known players in the crypto industry. 

We do not recommend or endorse any of these, but we would feel safe to use them. Please make sure that you are using the correct links, which we’ve included for you – as it’s quite common for scammers to imitate these!

The Greylist covers any companies where we have concerns around their operations, so exercise caution when using. Don’t send more than what you can afford to lose.

Any company on the Blacklist is a company that we have strong reasons to believe that it is a scam, and we strongly advise that you avoid it.

When it comes to wallets, don’t take any chances. Either store your valuable assets in a trusted wallet or none at all. Fake wallet apps are difficult to spot in common app marketplaces, and they can drain your funds in seconds. The best way to find the safest options is to go to the cryptocurrency issuer website.  For example, IOHK developed the Daedalus wallet to store Cardano (ADA) tokens.  Many ERC-standard tokens are compatible with any Ethereum wallets, such as MetaMask. Others like Exodus can store multiple cryptocurrencies.
