Foxbit Review
What is Foxbit?
Foxbit is a Brazilian centralized cryptocurrency exchange. It launched in 2014.
US-investors
The exchange seems to allow US-investors to trade, but US-investors should still do their own independent assessment of any problems arising from their residency or citizenship.
Foxbit Mobile Support
If you are a person who prefers to do your cryptocurrency trading while on your phone or reading tablet, you will be happy to know that Foxbit’s platform is also available as a mobile application.
Foxbit Trading View
Different exchanges have different trading views. And there is no “this overview is the best”-view. You should yourself determine which trading view that suits you the best. What the views normally have in common is that they all show the order book or at least part of the order book, a price chart of the chosen cryptocurrency and order history. They normally also have buy and sell-boxes. Before you choose an exchange, try to have a look at the trading view so that you can ascertain that it feels right to you. The below is a picture of the trading view at Foxbit:

Foxbit Trading fees
Every trade occurs between two parties: the maker, whose order exists on the order book prior to the trade, and the taker, who places the order that matches (or “takes”) the maker’s order. We call makers “makers” because their orders make the liquidity in a market. Takers are the ones who remove this liquidity by matching makers’ orders with their own.
Foxbit’s trading fees for takers are 0.50%. This fee is double the global industry average, but not in excessive compared to other South American exchanges. The exchange does however offer a discount to makers, thus promoting the liquidity at the exchange. This is a very strong competitive edge in the market and is especially beneficial for the investors not interested in picking up existing orders from the order book but rather prefers to “go fishing” with maker-orders. The fee for makers are 0.25% of the order value.
Foxbit Withdrawal fees
Foxbit's withdrawal fee is 0.0004 BTC per BTC-withdrawal. This fee is around 20% below the global industry average. The global industry average BTC-withdrawal fee the last time we at Cryptowisser did a full-blown empirical study of it was 0.00053 BTC per BTC-withdrawal.
Deposit Methods
Foxbit offers wire transfer as a deposit method, but you can’t deposit via credit card.
