What are cryptocurrency brokers?

If you have ever used a cryptocurrency exchange, you will understand the convoluted process of working out how you deposit money and successfully buy/sell, whilst not having a person to go to directly when issues arise, or even to understand the whole crypto investment process in the first place.

Crypto brokers solve this problem, by giving clients the opportunity to deal with people promptly when they need help or if things go wrong.

A crypto broker therefore serves as a middleman between people buying and selling the cryptocurrency, whilst always providing a personalised service.

Advantages of a Crypto Broker

Service-driven experience
Typically, greater transparency with pricing as a result of dealing with people
You usually know who you are dealing with on a personal level

Disadvantages of a Crypto Broker

Some brokers could be unregulated, leading to a lack of trust for clients.
Some brokers may have anonymous identities - if the broker will not share their identity, there is likely a good reason why.
