#CryptoFees101 Irrespective of whether your crypto portfolio is up or down, it’s certainly making someone else rich. When Coinbase went public, they were valued higher than the three largest stock exchanges in the world, combined.
These exchanges are so richly valued because they charge more than 50x as much in fees as traditional financial exchanges. That’s real money out of your pocket and why we are going to breakdown these fees to help you understand the main costs of trading, holding and using crypto.
To make it easier to understand, we are going to split the fees into ones assessed by the exchange you are using, and the ones assessed by the blockchain ledger itself.

#TradingMistakes101 What Are Trading Mistakes? Much research has been dedicated to the analysis of traders’ behaviour across financial markets.

What this term means to each individual trader can vary as much as trading itself, but for our purposes, we may consider a trading mistake to be a market decision or lack thereof which furthers a trader from his or her goal. Positive trading results are never ensured in the volatile CFD market, but getting down to brass tacks with regard to some behavioural patterns has the potential to help one become a more conscious trader.

#OnChainInsights Understanding Onchain Analysis Onchain analysis, also known as blockchain analytics, involves examining blockchain data such as transactions and wallet address holdings to understand the actions of market participants on respective blockchains in real time. This unique insight into market movements, absent in traditional finance, provides participants with a different approach to research and due diligence.
Public blockchains such as Ethereum, Solana, and Bitcoin are transparent digital ledgers, auditable by anyone and everyone. Every transaction and event on these chains is visible and publicly accessible, allowing anyone, anywhere, at any time, to access and analyze it.
This transparency ushers in a different paradigm in trading. It enables real-time monitoring of transactions, providing a deep understanding of market activities. Consequently, users who effectively utilize onchain analytics can make more informed decisions and identify opportunities early.
