Cryptocurrency has come to stay. Yes, despite what some anti-progressive media houses would have you believe it's no longer taboo to speak of cryptocurrency or its underlying technology, the blockchain. It is everywhere and with each passing day a new company or industry adopts it in one form or another.
Naturally, innovative people will seek to hop on the train and provide a service in order to benefit from blockchain technology. Today we have Legacy cryptocurrency like Bitcoin and Ethereum, custom cryptocurrency like Steem/SBD and Digitex, and tokens. Most tokens are ERC20 standard cryptocurrency generated from an Ethereum-based smart contract.
According to Etherscan and Eidoo there are over 20,000 token contracts in existence. Keep in mind that each blockchain is like an island on its own, to inter-mingle trading must occur.
Trading is when you buy/sell cryptocurrency for fiat or cryptocurrency.
There are so many advantages that cryptocurrency has over normal fiat. First we have the transparent ledger, limitless use, ease of transfer, cheaper fees and of course an immutable record that is decentralized and therefore cannot be controlled or shut down.
Exchange Platforms help the normal crypto trader to swap from coin A to coin B. Exchanges can also be used to buy cryptocurrency with fiat, or sell crypto for fiat. Nowadays, many exchanges find themselves unwillingly acting counter-active to some of the basic tenets of cryptocurrency. For example, many exchanges charge high fees to process withdrawals(and sometimes deposits). Some exchanges also charge a commission for every trade you make on their platform.
Now we understand that the exchanges are WEBSITES that run on servers, and the servers and staff employed aren't free, but the many fees undermine the superiority of crypto over fiat as they negatively affect adoption.
Cobinhood is a digital currency exchange that promises zero trading fees. It is the first exchange of it's kind. Cobinhood intends to derive it's service fees from ICO services and underlying services for major(rich) projects in order to keep the trading fees for the customers free.
Cobinhood is a clever play on Robin Hood, with their model basically to take from the rich and give to the poor, just like the fictional character.
Let us look at their introduction video
COBINHOOD VISION
)
Cobinhood recognizes that the current model of most exchanges puts traders and investors at a disadvantage. Why pay high fees for average or poor service? Many exchanges are poorly maintained and this leads to traders missing out on good trade opportunities, hacking incidents, or just poor latency resulting in slow circulation. Cobinhood aims to empower traders to allow them maximize profit from trading.
