BITBAY REVIEW CONCLUSIONS
BitBay is an innovative European exchange with more than 400,000 active traders. They accept fiat currencies (EUR, USD) and allow funding an account via Bank Wire or a Credit Card. They trade 9 cryptocurrencies (at the time of the review) including Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Litecoin. The maximum trade commission is 0.45%, which is low compared to other exchanges. We like the fact that BitBay offer their own MasterCard and that they have created the Bitomats ATM devices, which allow users to exchange physical money (EUR, USD, and PNL) into digital currency. These small innovations drive the market to grow faster and to serve better all of us.
Overall, we support innovative and long-term thinking companies in any financial market. Scammers are short-term thinkers, long-term thinking companies would not normally scam their clients, as that would ruin their reputation forever. BitBay is a very good choice for European Bitcoin traders, and certainly for Polish Bitcoin traders.
