What is the difference between a broker and a crypto-exchange?
We are a broker, not an exchange.
Here’s the main difference between a broker and a crypto-asset exchange.
A broker acts as an intermediary between the customer and the crypto market. Customers buy and sell directly from the broker. This means that operation is much simpler, and you don’t need to know anything about trading to use them.
A crypto-exchange, on the other hand, directly connects buyers and sellers of crypto-assets.

Step 1: Get trained
Before you invest, familiarize yourself with crypto. It’s important to understand what you’re investing in. But if you don’t have the time to study it in depth, you can rely on analyses and recommendations from experts in the field. For example, at Coinhouse, our team of experts publish weekly analyses of the best crypto projects on our blog.
Step 2: Choosing an exchange platform
Select a trusted platform. Choose platforms that are reputable, easy to use and, if possible, regulated in your country.
Create an account. You’ll need to provide some personal information and go through a verification process: photograph a piece of ID, film yourself for a few seconds. It’s quick and easy.
Step 3: Deposit funds
Fund your account on the exchange platform. You can usually do this by bank transfer, credit card, or even PayPal on some platforms.
Step 4: Choose your cryptocurrencies
Do some research to decide which cryptocurrencies to invest in. You can opt for Bitcoin or Ethereum to start with.
At Coinhouse, you’ll find a selection of over 50 cryptos carefully chosen by our in-house experts for the seriousness and solidity of their projects.

What is a stablecoin?
Stablecoins are crypto-assets designed to maintain a stable value against a fiat currency, such as the dollar, euro or yuan, or against an underlying asset. Among the best-known are USDT, USDC, DAI and EUR-L.
This backing on a fiat currency and their stability make them particularly attractive to companies looking to avoid the volatility associated with other crypto-assets, such as Bitcoin or altcoins.
By using stablecoins, companies can minimize the risks associated with price fluctuations and reduce the costs associated with transactions carried out via traditional payment channels.
For example, an e-commerce company wishing to sell products to customers abroad can accept payments in stablecoins to avoid the exchange fees and processing times associated with fiat currencies.
Stablecoin transactions are also faster, saving businesses time and money. They can be used to maintain working capital in times of price volatility.
For example, a company that stores its profits in stablecoins can avoid incurring major losses if crypto prices fall. In this way, it can exit its positions without leaving the market.
