Recommended Wallets
It’s always recommended to use hardware wallets that do not expose your private keys upon signing a transaction. The most widely known and trusted devices are Ledger and Trezor that start from $55. If you do not have a hardware wallet or not willing to obtain one - your mobile phone is the second most secure device that you can use and it’s considered more secure than any desktop wallets. Among the variety of wallets, we recommend BlueWallet due to a number of good reasons:
- It’s open source, secure and widely used
- Supports both Bitcoin and Lightning wallets
- Allows to set own network fees
Recommended Exchanges
There are many exchanges offering you simple and quick access to buying crypto currencies. Most of them charge substantial fees and do not let you set own network fee on withdrawals.
Although we advise to do own research, there are a few exchanges we could recommend.
- Mercuryo.io - allows to buy crypto directly to your own wallet.
- Binance.com - it is the largest crypro exchange.
- Gemini.com - offers 10 free withdrawals per each month.

How to Withdraw
To make a withdrawal, please ensure that the withdrawal amount is less than the free margin on your trading account and that the withdrawal will not activate an immediate liquidation of open positions.
