In second place with a score of 4.0 was FTX US Derivatives, an options and futures market owned by FTX.US. Note that FTX.US itself took seventh place.
British-Luxembourg platform Bitstamp came in third with a score of 3.8. The study notes that the exchange has not experienced any regulatory issues over the past five years. Bittrex and Gemini round out the top 5 safest exchanges with a score of 3.7.
Among other popular exchanges, Crypto.com ranked eighth and Binance.US ranked ninth. The Binance platform itself took 15th place, and KuCoin – 18th. In terms of regulation, FTX US Derivatives, Gemini, and Kraken Futures scored the highest, while KuCoin and ByBit ranked last with a score of 1.0.
In the consumer protection category, Gemini took the lead, while OKX came in last. Coinbase ranked first in transparency with a score of 4.8, while half a dozen exchanges scored just 1.0, including Binance, OKX, KuCoin, Gate.io, Bybit, and Phemex.
Recall that in 2021, shareholders filed a class action lawsuit against Coinbase, accusing it of providing false information about the financial position when placing shares on the Nasdaq stock exchange.
