What is better, Binance or Kraken?

[boomy]

Guys I need your input, which exchange is the better Binance or Kraken if you want to trade some of the major cryptos e.g. Bitcoin, Etherium and XRP ?

For me it is very easy to use kraken, I never tried Binance but heard that every Jo is using them for professional use?

I am using both of them. They are generally equal, except Binance doesn't support USD (they have a separate division for it).

Also binance has a lot of secondary features like P2P trading, loans and so on. But I never used them.

okay thank you, I may signup for an account with binance so check what they are.

It depends on how you trade. Fiat or not? Leveraged? Futures? Frequently? Algorithmically?

Binance global has a wide choice of crypto and tight spreads for crypto-crypto trading, but not fiat. Binance US has fiat trading. Bittrex has a good choice of both crypto-crypto and fiat-crypto markets. BitMex is popular for leveraged futures trading.

If you trade like this.

Insert 10K euro in your kraken account, trade it to bitcoin or other crypto, wait a few hours or days, get it back to fiat and start trading again once you think it is the lowest price!

What would you suggest then?

Depending on your jurisdiction Kraken, Coinbase, Bitstamp and now Binance do EUR. Bitfinex too, but its reputation is perhaps a little shakier.
