About BTCMarkets

BTCMarkets Exchange

BTCMarkets, launched in July 2013, is a centralized crypto exchange based in Melbourne, Australia. It’s one of the country’s oldest platforms, focused on Australian users, offering trading in AUD and BTC pairs for 36 coins and 39 pairs. It’s still active, but its recent 24-hour trading volume is around $8.7M (as of late 2024), which is modest compared to global giants.

What Made It Unique

  • AUD Trading: Supports AUD deposits and withdrawals with no fees via Osko PayID, direct deposit, or card—handy for Aussies. It’s a solid on/off-ramp for local currency.
  • Low Fees: Crypto-to-crypto trades at 0.22%, while AUD-to-crypto starts at 0.85% (drops to 0.1% for high rollers trading $5M+). Withdrawal fees are reasonable—0.0001 BTC, 0.15 XRP.
  • Security Measures: Uses multi-signature tech and cold storage for 90% of funds, with twice-daily crypto and hourly AUD checks to match user accounts. Also offers 2FA and address whitelisting.
  • Trading Features: Offers limit, market, stop-limit orders, and dollar cost averaging. The app (on Android/iOS) has simple and advanced TradingView charts, plus portfolio tracking.
  • Australian Roots: 100% Aussie-owned, compliant with AUSTRAC AML/CTF laws, and provides local support, which builds trust for regional users.

Things to Keep in Mind

  • Small Scale: With $8.7M daily volume and $28.3K over the last 30 days (down 55% recently), it’s not a heavy hitter. Liquidity might be thin for less popular pairs.
  • Limited Coins: Only 36 coins—fine for basics like BTC and ETH, but you won’t find many altcoins compared to bigger exchanges like Binance.
  • Verification Needs: No KYC for crypto-only trades, but AUD transactions require ID verification (passport or driver’s license), which might slow you down if you’re privacy-focused.
  • App Gaps: Some users note the app lacks full features—like one 2024 App Store review mentioned no fiat withdrawals on mobile, forcing you to use the desktop site.
  • Market Focus: It’s tailored for Australians, so if you’re outside the region, the AUD focus and local support might not suit your needs.

BTCMarkets is a reliable choice for Aussies wanting a secure, local exchange with low fees, but its smaller scale and coin selection might frustrate those looking for more variety or higher liquidity. The site is still live at https://btcmarkets.net.
