with advanced security features that replicates the functionalities of any
leading exchange will help an entrepreneur to instantly start a P2P
Cryptocurrency Exchange. By making use of this raw ready-made clone script, any
business person can kick start their own bitcoin exchange quickly.
Along with the technology, the geographic spread of the
exchange should also be considered very carefully. Countries that are favorable
for cryptocurrencies are US, Canada, Japan, Singapore, Malta, Australia, and
European Union countries. Legal opinion should be sought regarding the laws
that are guiding crypto currency in these countries. Countries that are adverse
to crypto should be avoided as they can bring in laws which can make crypto
exchanges illegal and therefore the entire time and investment will go waste.
There are different ways in which crypto exchanges make
money. Some of these are as below-
- When you buy and sell cryptocurrencies using fiat currency,
the exchange will deduct a small fee. There can be different ways to calculate
the charge. Sometimes it is as a percentage of the transaction value, or a flat
fee or a fluctuating fee depending upon the crypto that you are trading.
- Another method is when exchanges change currencies that you
deposit in the wallet in a currency that is different from the base country
currency there can be a differential from the existing market rates. This
differential in currency interchange is earned by the exchange.
Connecting with the right payment processor will be very
important because the charges that are deducted for a transaction can differ
widely. You need to connect with a processor that has moderate charges,
excellent data security and follows the law of the land. Also the processor
should support international transfers to support your international clients.
Here again the exchange rates offered should be better than others. The
processor should also not deduct any commission on your international
transfers.
Crypto exchanges should be very liquid so that users can buy
and sell crypto quickly. This helps users to add and withdraw funds quickly. If
you have been noticing instances wherein your withdrawals are not being
credited to your account on time it may be a liquidity issue with the exchange.
There are multiple ways to increase the liquidity of exchanges. One of them is
tying up with the network of other exchanges so that buying and selling or
(demand and supply can be in equilibrium). This will prevent bigger players to
manipulate prices of coins. It will also help high trading volumes in both the
margin trading and cash segments.
The security features of exchanges are of utmost priority.
The top security feature should be to store customer funds in cold storage that
isn’t connected to the Internet. This will stop hackers from accessing those
funds and exiting with them from the exchange. Second is to restrict 3rd
party integrations to a minimum. Some of the other security features that needs
to be built into the platform include HTTPs authentication, Jail login, Data
encryption, Registry lock, Two-factor authentication and SQL injection
prevention. Once you are convinced that the site is secure then it is time to
launch it for Beta testing.
Marketing the platform and making it known to traders is the
next step. We have seen large exchanges spending millions of dollars on digital
and TV advertisements. However, to bring in these large amount of marketing
capital there has to be a lineup of marquee investors who can back-up your
project. In recent times we have seen the interest in crypto investment has
increased manifold. It is supported by large advertisement spends wherein
leading influencers such as filmstars promoting crypto exchanges.
However, in countries like India the situation is still very
fluid with Government still deliberating on the crypto bill. This causes a bit
of concern for going all out on the marketing activities. However, in many countries in the West,
crypto is considered as an asset class that can be traded on the
exchanges. Other strategies that are
being adopted include gifts in the form of cryptos once you complete your KYC
or refer friends to the platform. Youtube has become one of the most popular
channels for crypto marketing. Using Youtube crypto exchanges can publish
necessary tutorials, developments, analysis, etc for use by traders of all
levels of experience. This reliability of the platform and its influencers can
be leveraged at all stages to develop trust and attraction among potential
users. Twitter is also becoming a very popular channel for crypto marketers. Twitter
has a simplicity that makes it much more targeted for crypto marketing. Having
a dedicated Twitter support channel and using it to build a community of loyal
users should also be helpful to build your user base. Other channels like
Telegram and Whattsapp can also be effective in building up your user base.
Customer support helps to build credibility among the user
community. Therefore any crypto exchange platform should build a robust
customer support system that should comprise of channels like Whattsapp,
Telegram, email and chat support.
The points that we have mentioned are some of the common
factors that go in building an exchange. However, when creating your business and operational plan you need to create a detailed business and financial model
that you help you launch a profitable and successful exchange.
