AirSwap.io is yet another decentralized exchange. It launched in 2017. 

The exchange focuses on highlighting six advantages with the platform:

  • it’s intuitive;
  • it’s secure;
  • the exchange also has a high trading volume;
  • it requires no sign-ups;
  • it requires no deposits; and
  • finally, it has low fees.

AirSwap.io Advantages

We have no reason to believe that US-investors would be prohibited from trading at this exchange. Generally speaking, it is more difficult for decentralized exchanges to prohibit residents or citizens in/from certain countries. However, as always, any US-investors interested in trading here should form their own opinion on any issues arising from their citizenship or residency.

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. At this exchange, there are no clear price charts. However, the purchase/sell interface is very intuitive and simple to understand. The below is a picture of the interface at AirSwap.io:

AirSwap.io Purchase Interface

Decentralized exchanges are becoming increasingly more popular. They are definitely gaining market shares against their centralized counterparts. 

Decentralized exchanges do not require a third party to store your funds, instead, you are always directly in control of your coins and you conduct transactions directly with whoever wants to buy or sell your coins. Decentralized exchanges normally do not require you to give out personal information either. This makes it possible to create an account and right away be able to start trading. The servers of decentralized exchanges spread out across the globe leading to a lower risk of server downtime. However, decentralized exchanges as opposed to regular top crypto exchanges normally have an order book with lower liquidity than the regular top crypto exchanges.

This exchange doesn’t charge any trading fees, save for requiring makers to stake 250 AirSwap-tokens. This is unusually consumer-friendly and very competitive.

If you were surprised when hearing that AirSwap.io doesn’t charge any trading fees, you might be equally surprised when hearing that they don’t charge any withdrawal fees either.

One might wonder, if they don’t charge any fees, then how do they make money? From our understanding, the sole source of income for AirSwap.io is the revenue made from increasing prices in the AirSwap-token. We have not seen or received any clear information as to whether this is true though.

AirSwap.io does not accept any deposits of fiat currency. This means that new cryptocurrency investors (i.e., investors without any previous holdings of cryptocurrencies) can’t trade here. In order to purchase your first cryptocurrencies, you need a so called entry-level exchange, which is an exchange accepting deposits of fiat currency. Find one by using our Exchange Finder!

The servers of decentralized exchanges normally spread out across the globe. This is different from centralized exchanges that normally have their servers more concentrated. This spread-out of servers leads to a lower risk of server downtime and also means that decentralized exchanges are virtually immune to attacks. This is because if you take out one of the servers, it makes little to no difference for the network of servers in its entirety. However, if you manage to get into a server at a centralized exchange, you can do a lot more harm.

Also, if you make a trade at a decentralized exchange, the exchange itself never touches your assets. Accordingly, even if a hacker would somehow be able to hack the exchange (in spite of the above), the hacker can not access your assets. If you make a trade at a centralized exchange, however, you normally hold assets at that exchange until you withdraw them to your private wallet. A hacker can therefore hack a centralized exchange and steal your funds held at such exchange. This is not possible when it comes to a DEX.
