Every exchange is a celebration with BestChange

Customer security is a priority. What rules must exchangers observe to be listed on the BestChange directory?

Find the list of critical requirements:

Will it be applied to new listings or all services, I noticed some ANN ads in BTT for services that do not meet these criteria and they were added to BESTCHANGE.

Can you please provide specific examples (ANN threads or name of exchangers) so that we could provide a detailed answer to your question?

I'm not sure which exchanger hugeblack was referring to, but I got the general impression (not only when it comes to Bestchange) that there are more and more new exchangers and that the selection criteria are decreasing a lot.
It's never been easier to start an instant exchange and the trend is on the rise.

How can I find out which amount of the source currency I have to sell to receive the desired amount in the target currency?

Please use the Calculator on our website to determine the amount of the source currency required to obtain the desired amount of the target currency as a result of the exchange.

Here is a quick guide to using the BestChange currency calculator:
● Choose the trading pair in the left sidebar on BestChange by clicking on the desired currency names. For example, you want to “Give” your Ethereum (ETH) away and “Get” some Bitcoin (BTC) in exchange;
● Open the “Calculator” tab in the central part of the page;
● Check “Get”;
● Enter the desired amount in the corresponding field;
● Click on “Calculate.”

Once you complete these steps, you will see how much Ethereum (ETH) you must sell to receive the desired amount in Bitcoin (BTC).
Why are some of the exchange offers lighter in color?

While using the Calculator, you may notice exchangers and their offers displayed in light gray.  There are two reasons for it:
- The exchanger’s reserves of the chosen currency are insufficient to exchange the amount you typed in the Calculator.
- The exchanger sets the limits for the minimum and maximum amount that can be exchanged within one order; the amount you entered in the Calculator falls outside the allowed range.

They unnecessarily went towards developing an AML checker. Very quickly, that tool went into maintenance and has not been activated since. It could be assumed that there will be no great benefit from it because the providers who provide liquidity (Whitebit, FF, Changenow etc...) to a large number of listed exchangers have their own AML and continue to act according to it.

You intentionally ignored the questions raise above? I've been tracking this thread and waiting for some info on what dkbit98 asked, you came poster an announcement instead and disappeared again.

Questions related to the rating system were asked much earlier. I am sure that they are also aware of this at Bestchange. There were announcements that they are working on improving that segment, but since there are no official announcements on this matter, we can only assume that they still don't have a ready solution for it.

Many of these new exchange that are promoting their platforms on the forum are not yet ready for business, otherwise there would have been good reviews on some of the social networks out there.
I think they have no funds to carry out full marketing, hence they try to engage forums members to write some good stuff about them. I am wondering the type of strategy some of these new exchange are employing to promote their exchange.

That was an announcement made earlier last year, and we're already in the first quarter of 2025, and people are still losing money to those shady exchangers on their platform. I can tell you for free that the announcement was only an escape strategy.

Bestchange has never been the same after they discontinued their signature campaign on BTT, and it would not be inappropriate for type1 flag on bestchange until they fix their messes

I don't know if they are avoiding ort not reading, but I think I asked them similar question in bitcointalk forum before and I didn't receive a clear answer on my questions.
Maybe they are not really interested in making conversation with other forum members, they just want to post whatever they want to post as news.

Thank you for your patience. We did miss some of the comments on this topic. We would also like to thank you for your attention to the monitor's functionality, your questions, and suggestions.

Let us try to answer your questions in the order of their arrival.

What happened with long time announced update for better review system on Bestchange website, is there any progress with thaht?

Our monitor’s review system works as follows: according to our rules, a review of the "complaint" type (highlighted in red) is available on the website if the user has not received funds from the exchanger in due time or if the issue occurred due to the exchanger's fault.

The monitor's specialists and the exchanger's administrators try to respond to complaints and solve problems promptly. When the exchanger resolves the issue or if difficulties arise on the user's side, the review is switched to the "comment" type (highlighted in white). At the same time, all users can still see the review and comments to it, if there are any.

We have also updated the way reviews are displayed. Anyone can see any reviews on any exchanger’s page in the monitor, sorted by type (as shown on the screenshot https://bc.to/J4cLOq): active financial claims, settled financial claims, comments about the service, and positive reviews.

we keep hear complains from people who lost money using exchanges listed on your website.

We presume you mean the cases when exchangers suspended the exchange to comply with international standards, such as FATF, AML, and KYC.

It would be a delusion to believe that the cryptocurrency sphere will forever remain unregulated and unattended by regulators in all countries. Attempts to regulate this sphere will be made in any case.

We understand that, on the one hand, AML policies deanonymize cryptocurrency transactions, and users would not want that. At the same time, law enforcement agencies are focusing on the crypto sphere because cryptocurrency transactions can be carried out for criminal purposes (to pay for services/goods on darknet platforms, to finance terrorism, kidnapping, etc.). It makes sense that regulations are essential to preventing illegal transactions. Today, AML is the regulation mechanism.

Exchangers listed on our website must comply with AML requirements like any other businesses providing financial services.

If high-risk indicators are detected in a user’s transaction, this may signal a direct or indirect connection to illegitimate sources from the AML/CFT perspective. If this is the case, the service accepting the funds will be obliged to freeze the transaction to perform KYC and find out the source of the funds. Otherwise, the service's accounts on exchange platforms may be frozen, and its crypto address may be blocked, while law enforcement agencies may bring charges of laundering funds obtained by criminal means.
During an AML check, the user’s funds are not gone, they are frozen until the source of funds is verified.

They unnecessarily went towards developing an AML checker. Very quickly, that tool went into maintenance and has not been activated since. It could be assumed that there will be no great benefit from it because the providers who provide liquidity (Whitebit, FF, Changenow etc...) to a large number of listed exchangers have their own AML and continue to act according to it.

When we initially launched this AML verification tool, our users relied on it extensively.  We wanted users to be able to quickly and inexpensively check their crypto wallets on our site before making an exchange to avoid having assets blocked due to possible high-risk indicators. This tool is temporarily out of service due to technical reasons, but we are doing our best to get it back up and running as soon as possible.

Some exchangers also have their own verification tools and screening systems. The check results of different AML analyzers may show different percentage ratios of high-risk assets, but they will all agree that high-risk indicators are present if this is really the case.

We would also like to point out that some custodial services do have internal rules for processing transactions, which may lead to the service being suspended on the service side. In such cases, the user may also be required to provide data regarding their transaction.

We understand the vast majority of users are not involved in money laundering and mistakenly find themselves in a situation where their funds are blocked until they pass KYC. We assume the mixers you promote aim to solve this issue.

We agree that the regulatory pressure on the crypto industry is increasing, and platforms must adapt to mitigate the negative consequences for law-abiding users.

If you exchange crypto on a regular basis, you may have found yourself in a situation where you couldn’t find any offers for a chosen trading pair, or the exchange rate left much to be desired. BestChange has three handy tools precisely for this type of situation:

● Double Exchange

This tool will be useful when you are looking for exchange offers for a specific trading pair but fail to find any. Double Exchange is sort of a detour that you take before you reach the ‘destination’ — the desired target currency. For example, if you can’t find offers for Bitcoin → PayPal, you can consider exchanging via Bitcoin → USDC → PayPal. To get double exchange ideas, set the trading pair and then click on the Double Exchange button in the central area of the page.
 
● Exchange Rate Notifications

If there are no offers for your trading pair or the exchange rates are not beneficial, you will have to come back and check again later. Such manual checks take a lot of time and focus. We suggest you subscribe to get a Notification by clicking on the button in the central area of the page. Set the desired exchange rate, reserve, duration (up to three months), and the notification channel: email or Telegram. As soon as one of the exchangers in our directory offers suitable conditions, BestChange will notify you. That way, you will never miss the right moment to order an exchange.

● Currency converter

If you want to know the exact exchange rate of any currency, try using our Currency Converter—find the link in the footer of any page on our website. BestChange receives data from the leading exchange platforms, so you can rest assured that the information is always precise and up-to-date. The Currency Converter is a helpful tool for anyone who plans their exchanges in advance and wants to know how they will impact their budget.

Do you use any of these tools? Please share your experience!
