Why ETH dont have the exchange screen? I enabled the ETH wallet but it doesnt have the exchange feature like btc? i dont want to use the instant buy/sell function.

Update: only got ETH/BTC ? So i need to buy BTC and trade it with ETH? dont have ETH/MYR ?

If you wanna trade ETH, avoid Luno. Remitano and LocalEthereum do the job with lower spreads.

is remitano okay to use ? compare to Luno
*
Both are okay, just need to complete KYC.

Other than that, the fee is at 1% compared to Luno's 0.25.

First time bought ETH yesterday. I realised after purchase and deduct the fees, for balance e.g. 0.00xxxxx which is less than 0.01 cannot be sold off. What do you guys do with it? Transfer out to another wallet to sell it?
Appreciate anyone's feedback.
Thanks.

Don't transfer. Fees are atrocious.

Just buy the remaining ETH through their insta-trade to and then sell the 0.01 on their exchange.

Which platforms do you guys recommend? biggrin.gif

KuCoin, Binance, Remitano (higher fee), Localbitcoins (better to sell since liquidity isn't as high as others). There are other international platforms but it's up to you if you wanna try them out. One of them allows you to buy stocks, ETF, etc so you don't need to go to any bank branch. No peer-to-peer trading for most though!

If you are interested, I can offer you a reflink to Binance (alternatively you can check it out in my red-text signature) which shaves off your trading fee (instead of none), and it being the most populous exchange in the crypto world. So you pay lesser in a way. biggrin.gif

I'm a beginner. I have some ethereum in luno currently. Any advices? I want to try out binance but i think binance cant withdraw to malaysia banks tho
*
You can, it's via peer-to-peer. Basically you directly bank into the seller's bank account if you are buying, and vice-versa smile.gif

Do you want to transfer the ETH out of Luno?

Will check them out, still have lots to learn since I just started with crypto so I think I'll stick with Luno for the time being first.

But thank you for the recommendation! biggrin.gif

Sure thing, happy trading!

I'm not sure, should i transfer the eth out of luno? About binance, there are malaysians there selling and buying via p2p? If i sell and buy from foreigners, they can also directly bank to me?
*
Don't transfer now, because the fee is sky high. What I'd suggest is to either insta-sell it (it's a feature on the homepage) or insta-buy the remaining amount (same) and sell the rounded ETH on the Luno exchange. A small price to pay but at least it costs way lesser than transferring out of it.

Yes, there are aplenty. In fact, not just Malaysians, but others from different parts of the world too.

For foreigners, you can but it's not worth the hassle since there's gonna be conversion fees and additional hoops from wire transfers.

So it's similar like remitano p2p? I have some experiences using remitano. Then i might use binance instead of luno for my future transaction

Yup, more or less the same. Remi fees are kinda cutthroat with their 1%.

You've registered on Binance yet?

That's how Luno earns via higher spread. Mainly for beginners or those that need to buy/ sell quickly.

Current btc rice is $57.5k
Even exchange is quite high. Currently btc is 249k in exchange. But I googled 60k usd = rm242k

Is it because the demand is higher hence push the price in luno exchange higher?
*
That's based on their insta spread. If you input that exact price, you'd get 1 BTC

Yes I agree.

But I can tell you that most people starting out with crypto won't give themselves 20 minutes to do some research to maximize their profits, rather just look for the easy way out. Most people would think if I put RM500 into ETH, I expect to get back RM600 in 2 weeks time, earning RM100. Then reality will hit them when they realize all the "hidden" cost with fees and high exchange rates.

Happened to most of us. That's how these exchanges prey on rookie mistakes.
