Launched in 2011, BTCC is a crypto derivatives exchange headquartered in Lithuania. It is fully regulated in Canada by the Financial Transactions and Reports Analysis Centre of Canada (FINTRAC).
BTCC recently celebrated its 13th anniversary in June 2024 with an array of accolades such as zero security incidents since its inception, more than 2.8 million active users, the launch of up to 500x leverage on selected crypto assets, 15,000 USDT weekly giveaways on Twitter, and over 7.5 trillion USDT total trading volume.
BTCC is arguably the most established crypto exchange in Canada and caters to both beginners and experienced traders interested in Futures and tokenized trading. The crypto exchange supports fiat deposits for both Canadian and United State users by allowing funding in Canadian Dollars and United State Dollars.
Why Send Crypto from Shakepay to BTCC Exchange?
With your crypto assets on BTCC, you can trade over 300 cryptocurrencies on the Futures market and 29 tokenized assets including Gold, Silver, and United State stocks. You will also get up to 50x leverage on the 300+ supported assets for Futures trading and up to 500x leverage on selected cryptocurrencies including Bitcoin, Dogecoin, Solana, and XRP though for a limited time.
Transferring crypto to BTCC also enables you to take advantage of the platform’s copy trade feature, which allows newbie users to mirror the trades of experienced traders in real-time. You will also get access to trading fees as low as 0.01% per trade and VIP benefits (birthday gifts, fast withdrawals, priority customer support, etc) upon fulfilling certain conditions.
BTCC offers a non-expiring demo account with up to 100,000 USDT in virtual funds. New traders can use the demo account to test trading strategies in a risk-free environment.
Another major reason to send your crypto assets from an external wallet to BTCC is that the derivatives exchange allows users to deposit more than 200 cryptocurrencies. Once they arrive on the platform, you can easily convert them to USDT for Futures trading. So you don’t have to bother about converting them to USDT before transferring and losing out on fees before you begin trading.
