Cobinhood-crypto exchange with zero tading fee! My reviews.

in #cobinhood7 years ago

Thanks to @starkerz for drawing this exchange for my attention - at first glance it seems to have a well-designed format and tool that matches an existing site like Bittrex - plus, they run their own coins (COB) and have extra support for ICO launches, free coin drops and even zero trade fees! Let's look in more detail and more complete I'll explain.

Firstly, I'm not communicating with or being paid by the team at Cobinhood - however, if you like the sound of the exchange, then it would be better if you use this link to join and use their services because it includes a referral code that will result in both of us receiving free tokens at Cobinhood !
Thought about Cobinhood
I find the name for this exchange to be a bit weird, I'm still not sure where it came from - it's definitely a mix of 'Robin Hood' - old English story of 'redistribution of wealth' and 'C', which may refer to 'Crypto'?

If that's the case, then it's a bold and exciting move to name the exchange in a way that shows rebellion and deliberate redistribution of wealth! Let's dig deeper.

The About page gives us the following description:

COBINHOOD is a place for dreamers and perpetrators.

The team behind the exchange includes two younger technology specialists from Asian heritage (Popo Chen and Wei-Ning Huang) and former Federal Gov Federal Information Chief of Staff - Tony Scott. Their background sounds pretty broad, so far so good!

Zero Fees? Very?
Well, it does seem that standard trading is not charged - pretty good! However, the terms and conditions for the site reveal that there are still costs that may arise:

The company displays ZERO trading costs to maximize the trader's profile and market liquidity. However, the Company imposes fees for interest on trade margin, subscription to COBINHOOD PrimeTM, use of COBINHOOD High Frequency Trading Server and other Services that may be provided by the Company from time to time. For a list of currently available Services and their associated costs, please refer to the Fees List published on the COBINHOOD website; Company may change the Fee Schedule from time to time). Please check the COBINHOOD website from time to time to ensure that you know the latest Fee Schedule. The change of the Fee Schedule is effective as of the effective date shown in the revised Fee Schedule for the Services, and will be applicable prospectively for any activity that occurs after the effective date of the revised Fee Schedule.

There may be certain rules or other fees imposed by third parties relating to your use of the Service. You acknowledge and agree that the Company will not be liable for any costs incurred in your deposits or transactions and that you are solely responsible for such costs.
Although I have searched the website, I have not been able to find the 'Fee Schedule' referenced in these terms.

Security and protection?
From what I see, the exchanges are pretty standard because no insurance coverage is offered if the exchange loses your money due to a fault or financial collapse. I have only seen one exchange so far that offers this but it is a big deal. Adding this will greatly help the cause of Cobinhood in the future.

Trade Features
As you can see, the UI is pretty good (And dark - which I like). It has various options for viewing trade data, as you'll find on other trading platforms:
