UPDATE 31 October 2022: Bithesap has decided to close down its operations. They announced this through the following message on their website (translated from Turkish to English using Google Translate, apologies for any inconsistencies):

Important announcement

Bithesap has decided to cease its activities. Therefore, it does not accept new users. Our current users will be able to withdraw their Turkish Lira and Cryptocurrency balances and use all the features of the platform except for buying/selling transactions. The buying/selling transactions on the Bithesap platform have been suspended as of October 2022. The relevant institutions were informed about the activity termination process. Our support team will continue to provide solutions to our users' problems during this time. The process will be carefully managed so that none of our users are victims.

Accordingly, we have marked the platform as "dead" in our Exchange Graveyard

Bithesap is a Turkish cryptocurrency exchange that has been active since 2017 and that offers two trading pairs: BTC/TRY and LTC/TRY. This means that there is no crypto-to-crypto trading at all. You can only buy BTC and or LTC. Accordingly, this exchange is not for people who want to trade the smaller coins. If you seek any smaller cryptocurrency, you’ll have to choose another exchange.

An issue for people that do not speak Turkish is that the exchange, as far as we have been able to ascertain, is only available in Turkish. This makes it a bit difficult to determine exactly what the below six advantages with this exchange are, but if you’re from Turkey you might be more lucky:

Bithesap Advantages in Turkish

Entry-level Exchange in Turkey

This exchange could work for a Turkish investor interested in an entry-level exchange. An entry-level exchange in this regard is an exchange where you deposit fiat currency and initiate your cryptocurrency trading. For more experienced investors, however, this is probably not the right choice. If you’re looking for an exchange offering trading in other cryptocurrencies, please go through our Cryptocurrency Exchange List or just use the Exchange Finder.

Bithesap is facing critical issues when it comes to the trading volumes and liquidity. On the date of last updating, this review (20 September 2021) the exchange's 24-hour trading volume was USD 432, according to coinmarketcap.com. This amount is very tiny and raises a genuine question about the survival of this exchange. We urge our readers to exercise caution if they are planning to open a new account on this exchange.

US-investors may not trade here. There are many reasons for excluding US-investors. The primary reason though is “regulatory”. The US-legal regime imposes obligations on many companies accepting funds from US-investors that are too burdensome for such companies to comply with. It’s everything from preparing certain marketing materials to making extensive filings. Again, don’t worry though, just use our Exchange Finder to find out which alternatives you have if you’re a US-investor.

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 trading 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 Bithesap:

Bithesap Trading View

As you know, there needs to be at least two parties in a trade. In cryptocurrency trading, we name these different parties different things (not just party one and party two). The party whose order exists on the order book prior to the trade is called the maker. The party who sees the maker’s order and decides that “yeah, that’s good enough for me and I’m gonna go ahead and accept that order” is the taker. As the makers provide the liquidity to the exchange, they are often provided with a discount on the trading fees compared to the takers. That is the case also at Bithesap.

Bithesap offers a taker trading fee of 0.40% and a maker trading fee of 0.25%. This is slightly above the industry average taker fee. The global industry average is arguably around 0.25%, so Bithesap is 60% above that.

Bithesap also offers trading fee discounts when you have a large trading volume during the preceding 30 days. Trading fees can become as low as 0.19% for takers and 0.09% for makers. That is if they have a trading volume exceeding TRY 1 million (corresponding to approx. USD 115,000). The exact trading fee discounts are set out in the below table:

Bithesap Trading Fee Discounts

You can’t really have a conclusive opinion on the fees charged at a certain exchange without also looking at the withdrawal fee.

Bithesap charges a withdrawal fee amounting to 0.0005 BTC when you withdraw BTC. This fee is below the industry average and constitutes an advantage for this exchange (from a customer-perspective).

Bithesap offers wire transfer as a deposit method, but you can’t deposit via credit card.
