Our verdict on each
coinhouse
Coinhouse is a French custodial exchange for euro buyers who care more about regulation and funding options than price. A taker fee of 1.49% makes it costly to trade often, and the 50 coin list keeps it behind larger venues.
Robinhood
Robinhood is a custodial exchange with a narrower coin list than most rivals, at 90, but it pairs MiCA and Bank of Lithuania licences with SIPC membership and published proof of reserves. It suits first-time buyers who want buying, staking and derivatives in the same account.
