Bitpanda vs Bybit.

We don't hand out safety verdicts — we keep a sourced record. On Skontro's Reliability Score, Bitpanda and Bybit currently carry the same score (84/100). The score compresses documented withdrawal reliability, proof-of-reserves practice, regulatory standing, security history, support quality and maturity into one number, with every negative data point dated and sourced, and older incidents decaying over 24 months.

The component-level basis — which incidents, which licences, which proof-of-reserves cadence — is one click away on each venue's page. Read the dated record for Bitpanda and Bybit there before weighing the one-number summary; the score is a compression, not a substitute for the sources behind it.

Bitpanda publishes 0.00% maker / 0.00% taker on its base tier; Bybit publishes 0.10% maker / 0.10% taker on its base tier. On the brochure, Bitpanda looks cheaper — but the published fee is only one part of the real cost. The other part is what execution actually costs above the market reference. For Bybit, the card above measures the live orderbook spread for the same €1,000 Bitcoin buy, timestamped. Bitpanda doesn't expose a public orderbook, so its card shows a list-price estimate against the market reference — marked "list price · not live", an estimate rather than a measurement. The ranking can flip between measurements as prices move.

Where a venue publishes a fixed BTC withdrawal fee, the live cards include it; where it doesn't, the total honestly excludes withdrawal and says so — a passthrough network fee shown at withdrawal time is a data point, not a gap. For your own size and asset, the live comparison recomputes everything in real time.
