📝 Overview 📝

Getting your hands on your first crypto coins is not easy and it can be even more confusing to know which exchange to use. I’m going to cut through the noise and just tell you that two top options are Coinbase Pro and Kraken. However, the big question is: which one is right for you?

I go through all the pros and cons of these two exchange titans to help you pick the right one.

❓About Coinbase Pro & Kraken❓

Coinbase has been around since 2013 and is based in San Francisco. It boasts over 30 million users and over $150 billion has been traded on the platform. Coinbase Pro is Coinbase’s advanced trading platform and is touted by many as being one of the best ways to get into crypto.

Kraken has been around even longer and was founded in 2011. Like Coinbase, they are also based in San Francisco. Over 4 million active traders call Kraken their home and they are even raising funding at a $4 billion valuation - not too shabby.

Kraken keeps 95% of all deposits offline. Servers are even protected by armed guards. Both exchanges also offer 2FA protection to secure their accounts and are trusted by institutional clients.
