Not priced here: KuCoin, Bitpanda, Bitvavo — no verified dollar order book, so we leave the number out rather than convert one.

Why the advertised fee misleads
Spread is a price, not a percentage.
A “0.10% fee” on a $1,000 Solana order is one dollar. The spread between the reference price and the levels your order actually consumes can be several times that — and it grows with order size, especially in thin books. That is why we rank venues by net SOL received instead of any quoted percentage, and why every figure on this page carries its data age. The full methodology.
Not investment advice. Skontro is not a CASP under MiCAR. Some exchange links are affiliate links. Skontro earns a commission from the linked platform at no extra cost to you. Ranking is never influenced by affiliate payout. Market data from public exchange orderbooks; EUR and USD reference prices via CoinGecko, each measured natively on the rail you select. Every figure carries its data age.
