So many crypto platforms, which one would you recommend for a dummy/ beginner?

I second crypto.com.

Have been looking around when binance got banned, moved to huobi and huobi banned too.

FTX while fees are low, limited crypto.

Gemini has fiat on ramp, but you wouldn't want to hold your assets there due to the custodian fee. If you want to send to a cold wallet then Gemini is good due to the free monthly withdrawals.

Coinhako fees are too high. 1% wtf.

Was looking at Okex, was planning on creating an account. Got banned too.

Tokenize Exchange FIAT to crypto 0.8%. So abit high also.

Independent Reserve is like a binance.sg, super limited trading Pairs. Would b good if you're only buying BTC and ETH. The new binance.sg since binance.sg just left sg.

Kenneth covered on crypto.com, so I shall not add further.

Just my 2cents worth. You do you.

I would prefer using Liquid or Gemini both have easy singpass kyc, direct SGD deposit but liquid has a good earn product, can get up to 10% apy for usdt, which is decent. End of the day, both are equally good exchanges
