TradeOgre Exchange Review

TradeOgre is a crypto to crypto exchange which is established in 2018. In its website, there are only a few sections, which makes it hard for the users to do their own due diligence on the exchange. There is no information regarding the team behind it, its registration, and its security measures. According to some reviews, the site encourages users to enable Google’s two-step authentication.

There are 76 altcoins listed on the site which users can trade against BTC and LTC. Starting to trade is easy compared to other exchanges because TradeOgra does not require any identity checks, so a user can start trading as soon as he enters a valid email address. The transaction fee is fixed at 0.2% for both makers and takers. However, the withdrawal fees differ for each cryptocurrency. For instance, the withdrawal fee for BTC is 0.00020241. There are no deposit fees. Since TradeOgre does not accept fiat currencies, wire transfers and credit cards are not accepted as well.

The exchange doesn’t seem to have an email address or a phone number for customer support. It is active on Twitter, where it announces updates about the exchange from time to time. Some negative comments from the users state that the withdrawal times were long.

Update April 27, 2021: TradeOgre is currently in the news as the main hub of trading activity for the most recent “meme coin.” The PirateChain privacy coin is currently receiving a lot of hype on social media and saw intense trading activity in the month of April (whether or not the hype is warranted is outside the scope of this review).

TradeOgre is not the only platform for trading PirateChain (ARRR), but it appears to be the most popular. Users who are deciding whether or not to jump on the PirateChain train would be well-advised to read this TradeOgre review and compare it to the other exchanges offering ARRR.

Beyond this, not much has changed about TradeOgre since our initial review. The website is still very bare-bones with three sections: Markets, API, and Fees (those latter two being subsections of “Help”). There is also a link to a Google form to list your coin on TradeOgre.
