Ice3x.com is a cryptocurrency exchange based in South Africa that focuses on Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Litecoin as digital coins. The exchange uses South African Rand and the Nigerian Naira as fiat tethers. Ice3x is rather market limited due to its regional focus and mostly suited to frequent trading of these currency pairs. The fee structure is transparent and the trading engine delivers.
The Ice3x platform is simple, straightforward and easy to use, while the layout of the trading interface is intuitive. The exchange is web-based, but also has two mobile apps that can be accessed from Android and iPhone. Users must verify their accounts in order to make withdrawals. The customer support is good, with just a few complaints. Best for users interested in the African crypto market.
